Parafins,
The legend of Easter Rock (named for its oval/egg shape)that I heard 40+ years ago was that mischievous Mocko Jumbies would roll the rock down the hill into the sea and then roll it back up again. If the rock is wet when you drive past it, you will know that the Jumbies are nearby.

Parafins, Thank you so much for a wonderful report and all the super photos. I especially enjoyed that you and your family got to experience some of the lesser known beauty of St. John.

Parafins, I'm really enjoying seeing your family (infoto) again! Superb camera! I'm wondering if you ever considered staying at Cinnamon. My two children (about the ages of your youngest and oldest) loved the campground and all the activities kept them busy throughout the day. This was back in the e...

I am so enjoying your trip report and I'd love to see more of your photos---especially any taken on Gibney beach. When my children were very young, we ofte...
