Everyone was looking forward to sunset, so we had a painkiller and waited with cameras in hand. After sunset, we had an excellent dinner at the Anegada Reef Hotel.
Five guys headed to the British Virgin Islands for a week of sailing. Follow our adventures here from January 31 to February 8, 2014.

Off to Loblolly Bay
We couldn't go back to the boat without a cocktail at the Big Bamboo at Loblolly Bay. We had rented a truck, so off we went. There was a decent crowd, and the painkillers went down easily.
Cow Wreck Beach Time!
When we left the Anagada Beach Club, the executive decision was made to hit Cow Wreck Beach next. It wasn't a tough decision... When we got there, the place was packed with kite surfers. A few cocktails and some conch fritters later, some of the crowd thinned out so it was a little more enjoyable.
New Place - Anegada Beach Club
We decided to check out a new place, the Anegada Beach Club. It has a beautiful bar area. Yes, that was the part of the resort that we went to first..... Nobody was there - we had the place to ourselves, so we had a rum punch. The beach was a decent walk from the bar area, but it was beautiful. No oceanview rooms, and the walk to the beach will hurt this place, considering they are charging $275/night.
Presenting Sir Richard Branson
Richard Branson owns two resorts here in the BVI (Necker and Mosquito Islands), so we have heard stories from people who have run into him. We hadn't been on Anegada for two minutes and ran into him. Craig is a big fan of his, so he asked to have a picture taken.
Mondays Are Better in the BVI
We got up early Monday morning to get on the dock at Leverick Bay to get the water tanks filled. Mission accomplished by 8:30 AM, and we were off to Anegada. Ken estimated the waves were 8' to 9'. I think the technical sailing term for them is "big ole snotty waves." Link to a video HERE
