I created the above video of a post Carnival beach party &quot;tramp.&quot; It is held annually on the Sunday after the last events of Carnival on Magens Bay on the north end of St. Thomas. On that day, revelers hit the beach for beach parties and relaxation.



















J'ouvert Morning (April 30th). This is the morning after the Virgin Islands cultural Food Fair. Normally people get no sleep prior to this, as many people leave all night parties the night before. It used to start at dawn, but due to recent flare ups of isolated violence, the time has been moved up to sun up. This is the occasion where revelers get a chance to jump up behind their favorite bands along a 2 mile stretch.

You could have called and asked if I wanted to go.

I won't even ask if you had a good time...I am sure that goes without saying.

Anymore 'postable' photos?
