Bordeaux Mountain

Ryan wanted to go up to the top of the island, and a different taxi driver (they became our local pals and guides) recommended this lookout. It's somewhere near the top of Bordeaux Mountain, which is the highest point on St John, but I don't actually think we were at the top - the road definitely seemed to curve up from where we were standing.

This is the view looking north - that's Great Britain right up at the top of the horizon. Who knew you could see all the way to England from the US? :) I think all of the separate islands you can see from here are in the BVI - they are less than 2 miles from St. John.
