Beware of people on the islands wearing stilts!

Or with locals that have pet animals with them!

Ok...  That is a weird title for a post, I know!  But I wanted to send a warning about this topic!  When  we cruised on the Eastern route with my family a couple of years ago, John got off the boat early when we were in St. Thomas and chartered a large van with a tour guide that would take us around the island for some good picture places.  So, we were enjoying the scenery at each stop and stopped at this one place high on a hill with a view of the ships in port. 

We were taking pics and this one local man asked my nephew if he wanted to stand next to this donkey that he had on a "leash" so he did.  My sister-in-law snapped a photo and they both proceeded to walk away and the guy came after her asking for $20!!!!  She said that she would not pay that much for a picture and he started yelling and calling her names and such.  It was really a scene. 

Anyway...  If you want the picture and want to pay, go for it.  As for me, I will stay away from the man with his ASS!  (Get it.  A little play on words there!! Bad joke?  Maybe, but give me a break!  LOL!)
