Waking up to a glorious sunrise as our ship was sailing in slowly to port was a blissful treat. Our stateroom on starboard side glowed a brilliant gold. Peering through the window was enough to rouse me as if hit by cold water. I grabbed my camera (as if grabbing a life vest in an emergency) and quickly made it to our balcony where all of St. Thomas - our first port of call - was just waking up as well.
