When we saw the naked couple on Solomon a few weeks ago they pretty much hung out (oh brother - no pun intended!) under the seagrapes and then marched into the water occasionally. The beach is a pretty good size and there are lots of little shade areas. It is a gorgeous beach too so I wouldn't rule ...

I'm 47 (although I have a hard time remembering or acting my age!) and my hubby is 48.

Bob - thank you for your input - I really wonder if that could be what it was. I am very bad at guesstimating feet but we basically came to a halt - and turned out away from his wake when we saw it - it seemed like he was so very far to our left when we were approaching him that we couldn't imagine ...

Ruth - yes it was Bill and Judy - very sweet people and yes we heard the story about Jimmy floating too Red Hook - it was hilarious - Jimmy shared quite a few stories that night along with additions from Bill and Judy who laughed and said they claimed him on their taxes as a dependent as they provid...

It was not a tender - they had a dinghy attached and it was pretty tight to their boat - it was a taut white line which I could only assume was a fishing line - it ran out very far behind their boat - as I don't fish I am not familiar with what it was exactly. I would definitely say it was a fairly ...

It was really quite odd to see the naked couple and then the topless woman. Especially at Cinnamon. I guess at Solomon I wasn't too surprised but at Cinnamon I was. It was pretty busy that day with families, couples, young and old. We did see one direct reaction to the topless woman. As she started ...

Now on to the NOT relaxing part. Later in the week we decided to rent a dinghy and explore some nearby islands. They had 15 foot rigid inflatable with a center console. We decided Saturday would be the day. We were at the dock bright and early with a plan to head to Norman Island to snorkel the Cave...

Monday April 23rd Woke up several times to pouring down rain. Wow - we have never had so much rain in paradise. Ended up eating a quick breakfast in their little kitchen area as it was pouring down rain outside. Paid our bill and took cab to ferry for West End Tortola. Got tix and waited a bit as it...

April 20th After waking up sat on deck enjoying view - it was very overcast but still beautiful - had tea and planned day. Fred ran (he's an exercise nut and an Ironman athlete!) into town and on his way back through town he picked up our box of "liquid" stuff we had mailed to Connections....

We were up at 5AM on Thursday April 19th, for trip to Rochester NY airport where our flight left at 8AM to JFK. No problems on that leg - then we were flying American from JFK to STT. I liked the time of the flight and the fact that it was direct and had to fly Jet Blue on the first leg in order to ...

Sue - Good question - I need the answer too!!!! Here is what I found out online - Maid service - $1-5 per day typically, up to $10 per day depending upon how much mess you make. Tip daily because there might be a different maid each day. Leave the tip on your pillow. Err on the side of being generou...

Honeymoon is spectaculor. Go to Caneel park in their visitor's lot and follow the path/road over to Honeymoon - pick a spot and enjoy. Beautiful, beautiful beach. It can get busy when the daytrippers come over from St Thomas but that has entertainment value in itself. Jumbie is small and has a seclu...

Sue - yes it is hard to believe the time is almost here!!! I bet your weather in MA isn't any prettier than our weather here in Western NY! Hopefully our paths will cross at Estate Lindholm! Counting the minutes.........

We discovered Cooper Island while on the Stormy Petrel too!!! It should be interesting to say the least! We definitely like to spend our days chillin on the beach, reading, relaxing, snorkeling, swimming etc. Everything we should be able to do right there steps from our room. The food we had was gre...
