Foxy's Lost Sign



  One of my favorite places to travel to is the British Virgin Islands. We have been there many times and each time I find I love it more and more. The islands have a perfect mix of tranquility, beauty, and adventure.  It’s a place to go to just relax, chill, hang out, and party or as the locals say “Limin”. Most people who travel here seem to understand this way of life and for this reasons keep on coming back.  Those who live on the islands of the BVI are extremely friendly and always welcoming you to enjoy their island. On Jost Van Dyke there is a fun little spot known as Foxy’s Tamarind Bar.  It is a place to go by boat, drop anchor, and have fun.  Foxy’s has been providing food, drinks, and fun since 1968. As you arrive on shore one of the first things you see is the hand craved wood sign made back in 1966 with just  Foxy’s on it. This sign has been the site for many a photo. I think almost everyone who has set foot there has taken a pic or two of it.  This past January someone decided that the sign should be theirs and has taken it from its place by the dinghy dock. By doing this those people or person have taken a little part of what those islands are about.   Foxy’s will still be great without the sign. In fact a new one is in the works. It’s just a shame some people just don’t get it.
