JOURNEY TO THE JEWEL YogAdventure
WITH
ANGELA STRYNKOWSKI


 

Each morning we woke up in our “eco-tent” which was overlooking the ocean from the mountainside on the island of St. John. After enjoying a cup of tea or coffee made in our own kitchen, Yoga and Meditation with Angela was next.

Each day, after breakfast, was a different adventure! Some days we took our Jeeps down the mountain to a secluded beach. On another day we sailed to White Bay Jost Van Dyke... one of the top ten beaches in the world! Then there was the day we left Cruz Bay, St. John, after a bit of shopping, in our professionally captained powerboats. We rode along the south coast of Tortola, BVI. Our first destination was the Baths of Virgin Gorda, one of the Natural Wonders of the World, where Angela decided to follow some people up a 35 foot rock to jump off into the water (Holy Cow was that scary!)On the ride back from Virgin Gorda, we snorkeled The Indians (a premiere snorkel destination in the Caribbean) and The Caves off of Norman Islands (inspiration to Treasure Island, the novel). Of course a day of shopping and lunch in downtown St. John was necessary.There were free days to snorkel, swim, kayak, sun and hike as well at various beaches on St. John . 





St. John is also known for its beautiful sunsets;

a perfect way to end each day filled with beauty and wonder. 




A Group of 18 people...plus her Mom...Joined Angela for a Journey to the Jewel of the Self and to the Jewel of the Virgin Islands. 


The Journey, began June 7th 2008 and ended June 14th.....although it continues....

Included was “Angela’s” Vinyasa Yoga over looking the Caribean and Atlantic Ocean, Adventure, Natural Beauty, Boating and Sailing, Eco-lodging, and everything the Sea and Sand of the virtually untouched American Virgin Island of
St. John had to offer.
