St. Croix webcam

St. Croix has a webcam. There are actually two advertised online - in Christiansted and in Frederiksted. We've only been to the one in Christiansted, which is on the boardwalk and right across from the Hotel on the Cay, where the triathlon began. Whenever we're on St. Croix, we call our parents so that we can wave at them. (It's thrilling, I'm sure.) While there's also a webcam at Magen's Bay, where we frequently swim, run, and walk, we only go there in the morning, so to be kind, we don't call our parents when we're there. (Also, it's usually only active from 8am-5pm.)

For the big triathlon, there was an organized group photo of triathletes just before the Jump Up began. I'm behind the guy in the pink shirt on the right side of the photo. The photo was printed in the newspaper on St. Thomas and St. Croix - very important for keeping track of how many times I'm pictured or mentioned in the newspaper here. (Of course, Dave was in a separate photo over triathlon weekend too - caught in the act of spectating.)

The reason I mention the webcam now, is that my parents are on St. Croix. They are visiting the Caribbean this week. They were here on St. Thomas with us all of last weekend, then flew to Dominica on Monday. From Dominica, they flew to St. Croix on Thursday. This afternoon they'll arrive on the seaplane back on St. Thomas. They said they'd go by the webcam and wave at us, even though we wouldn't be watching. Since Verizon doesn't have coverage here, they don't have access to a cell phone, so they couldn't call us to tell us to check online, as thrilling as that would be. Nonetheless, I pulled up gotostcroix.com just a few minutes ago while eating my lunch, and what did I see? My dad! I hit save, and then he was gone. Instantly vanished - no sign of which way he went or where mom was. Are they heading to the Fort Christian Brew Pub for a beer? More importantly, will they be back to wave at the webcam again.....?
