Great start! I too, would like some more of those details! SOunds like you had a great time. As far as snorkeling, we were on STJ in June and I think there were maybe more fish than during our prior trips. We usually head down in the February/March time frame so maybe it was just the time of year?! ...

This past summer we left on a Saturday afternoon as well and the lines were incredibly long. I think it took close to three hours to wind through them all. However, when I posted this upon my return, another forumite said they left the next day (a Sunday) and flew right through in less than an hour....

Thanks for the link - It says he had a reggae band perform - wonder if it was Inner Visions or another STJ/STT band.

George -

We took a a taxi from Cruz Bay to Hawksnest this past spring and although I don't recall the rates, the driver was there to take us back at the exact time we asked. It worked out very well.

We own a week at Sunset Ridge and went in June of this year for the first time. The views are great, particularly from the pool area. I would recommend a four wheel drive as the road up there is quite steep. There is a back way which is a bit tough to find on the way in (at least the first time) whi...

Thanks for posting this David. We have used Conrad in the past on four or so different occasions with no problems. However, as you said, we did not have any problems with the vehicles. This will definitely make me reconsider using him on our trip in June. We haven't booked with anyone yet. So sorry ...

My husband and I always joke about how being a weatherman in the VI's would be awesome. Listening to the radio report, we found the meterologist saying virtually the same thing every day!

Thanks so much for your input. The camera I currently own does not have a Nikon specific housing, but I could buy an underwater housing elsewhere for it. I would rather get a whole new one (don't tell my husband!) that is smaller.

I will definitely look into the A620.

Thanks again! :lol:

What are people supposed to do with rental cars. You need to fill up before retunring them. I can't imagine they would be too pleased with anyone returning a car partially full? May need to pack that big red 5 gallon jug in your suitcase for the next few months!

Well Ruth - I must agree with you - very well organized and hopefully less stress for the Bride and Groom. I actually read almost the entire thing. What does that tell you about me??

Wow Rick - I think I'll join you too! Everything you mentioned sounds delicious. We usually keep it very, very simple. Breakfast in - cereal or eggs and bacon with bagels, lunch is out 3 or so times and PB & J sandwiches with fruit and snacks 3-4 times (funny how I never have them at home, but t...

Camera with underwater case

I know this has been asked before, but the info is quite scattered. I am looking to buy a new digital camera with an underwater case. Or maybe one of the newer waterproof ones. What do you recommend? I currently have a Nikon cool-pix and like it, but was looking for something smaller and not too exp...
