British Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico PET

So the wife and I headed off two weeks ago to the BVI for a little rest and relaxation. MV and others can have France, I will take the BVI over that pretentious chimney any day.
We left SA and connected in DFW to a flight to San Juan Puerto Rico. We departed DFW and flew east to the LA border before turning south east so as not to overfly Cuba. The route took us over the Mississippi river delta:
The we crossed FLA, before flying over the Bahamas:
We had a long connection in Puerto Rico of 6 hours so we went into old town and ate and toured the old fort:

Then it was off to Scrub Island, a private island in the BVI:

We chartered a boat and went to "the baths" on virgin gorda for the day. For some reason this is called whale rock:
The baths are an area of granite rocks that have resisted erosion right at the water's edge. Lots of little caves and tunnels:
After leaving the baths we went diving at the indians:
After diving it was off to Soggy Dollar Bar where we had multiple "Pain Killers":
Mrs Lefty at Soggy Dollar Beach:
We also tried paddle boarding at the resort:
Clearly the Mrs was much better:
