Today we are docking in the beautiful Tortola, where port Roadtown is surrounded by picturesque green hills 300 m high.. After breakfast with a view we went ashore. Since my grandson is here for the first time I wanted to take excursion around the hilly islan in the safari bus – many of them are waiting at the port gate, but the price for the 3-hours tour, 1h on the Cane Garden Beach cost now already 30 USD. We paid this amount because we had some savings as a result of hitchhiking yesterday. The bus took us up to the Bellevue view point – some 250 m above sea. Then we were driving narrow and steep roads among mango and breadfruit trees to the other view points and finally to the beach. You never know there were unexpected 15- minutes warm rain – enough to make you wet. We were drying fast. Tortola has still the charm, but is even more expensive!
