Re: What's on your Play List??

Don't think I saw it on here, but for your last night on island you have to add Jerry Jeff's "Cowboy Boots and Bathing Suits".

Re: New music for ipod

I'd add the soundtrack from The Harder They Come. Also, if you're celebrating an anniversary, we had a handful of Jerry Jeff Walker tunes on our playlist last year (who knew JJW was such a romantic?!?): Cowboy Boots And Bathing Suits The Moon Is Still Over Her Shoulder Caribbean Moon What True Love ...

Ted is great! We had him prepare dinner for our 20th anniversary last March and it was amazing. We went with the "full meal deal" and had lots left over for lunch the next day. Ted does everything, prepares the food, sets the table, cooks, waits on the table, visits, talks, cleans up, wash...

I posted a review under St John Dining Reviews, but I can say that the meal that Ted prepared for our 20th anniversary in March was one of the best we've ever had. Even though it was just the 2 of us, we went with the "full meal deal". My wife loves lobster but she's not real big on a lot ...

We used cash last year as well. I'm pretty sure it's cash only, but check with Ted ... he's great to talk to.

No beach access, Arc du Soleil is in Virgin Grand Estates. Up the hill with a beautiful view of Great Cruz Bay. That's reassuring! Is there beach access from this villa? Don't be scared off by no a/c at Arc du Soleil; it has plenty of ceiling and other fans to keep the air moving. We were there in M...

Don't be scared off by no a/c at Arc du Soleil; it has plenty of ceiling and other fans to keep the air moving. We were there in March and had absolutely no problem without a/c. It really is an amazing villa with an amazing layout, a big pool, fantastic sunset views and lots of privacy. And the owne...

I posted a review under St John Dining Reviews, but I can say that the meal that Ted prepared for our 20th anniversary was probably the best meal we've ever had. We went with the "full meal deal" and Ted made a couple of tweaks to the menu to accommodate a couple requests. I think it was $...

Great video Jim, lots of good photos. Loved the spotted eagle ray; only one I've seen was the one that swam underneath me in Maui a few years ago. By the way, you guys dove with Low Key didn't you? Was that Jeremy on the back of the dive boat in one of the pictures? You'll have to make sure Hot Wing...

Glad to hear everything's healed up and you're getting ready to head back to St John. Enjoy the diving and the painkillers.

Oh, and don't forget to play "that song" on your last night ... guaranteed not to be a dry eye in the place ... well, that's my experience.

Have a great time.

We also celebrated with a special meal at Zozo's. They booked a table for 2 along the rail in the restaurant, and took our reservation a long way in advance. The food and service were great. We also loved Rhumblines, but they don't have the view that Zozo's does.
