Fun to read the extended update here. :) You can imagine my relief to know the tie-died onesies are being taken care of. Many congrats to you and "Tony"! ;)

I am just getting a chance to read your reports and look at pictures. Congrats, again, on your 8 Tuff! I'm glad we got to meet before and after the for a bit. Wasn't it a great day?! Sorry we didn't get to visit more at the BB. We'd spent all day on the boat and you know what that does to a group. :...

Tie-dyed onesies are adorable! :)

Congrats, again, Mrs. & Mr. Gromit! I predict much personal luggage downsizing in your future. Which mini-Gromit will demand. ;)

Spirit, I know, has this reputation, but we just had this same issue with USAirways for a February reservation--- existing flight totally canceled, changed days of travel adding a 6+ and 13+ hour layovers and offered no refund, no lodging compensation, nothing. I'll never fly with USAirways again, a...

Congrats - hope you have lots of rentals and condo sales start booming so they will build more architecturally wonderful structures like Grande Bay along the whole poorly underdeveloped Cruz Bay shoreline. The people buying these units did not build Grande Bay, and the fact is, Grande Bay was not g...

The most significant change in the 5AM update is that the USVI have been upgraded from a Hurricane Watch to a Warning. That may have happened earlier in the night, though? Right now there's plenty of rain, but no major wind. This will be an interesting day wherein I'm sure the prayers and mojo and w...

Have you talked to Catered To management? Start there. I don't know everything, but you're not necessarily in better shape moving.

At this point, since you have a place to be here now, I would make sure your family has the essentials and that you talk to the villa company. Monday will not be the day to move anywhere, so let the management give you all the information and protocol you need. There are things we generally don't ha...

As someone who has tried to change flights, I can tell you it's a pretty bleak shot right now. Today would be the day to leave, and right now that's just not looking possible. I was given the option of stand-by at the airport, and being stuck at STT airport with no chance of a taxi/ferry situation b...

What is this "Big Ben's" of which you speak? Must know. Did you say chocolate croissant? Yes, it is where Big Belly used to be. Breakfast there is great. A $5 breakfast sandwich on STJ is a steal anyway, but theirs are actually very good on top of that! A great breakfast after an evening ...
