Dave, If you copy this website - you will see an excellent map of Cruz Bay. To get to Joe's BBQ: 1) You head "left" from the ferry dock 2) As you pass the Post Office (on your right) 3) Take that left onto North Shore Rd 4) Joe's BBQ is right there on that left corner! http://www.virginisl...

Hi! Welcome to "the club"!! Nicest people I have ever "met"! My husband (Jim) & I (Sue) from Massachusetts will be on St. John from April, 21st to around noontime on Friday, April 27th (we are then heading to Secret Harbour on St. Thomas for 2 nites). Would love to meet up wi...

We definitely want some license plates - but, of course we all have our favorites: We like the "Limin'" idea: Maybe: Top: Limin' on the ilon' Bottom: St. John, USVI Or: Top: I'd rather be Bottom: on St. John, USVI Really like: Top: Sshh - It's a secret! Bottom: St. John, USVI (or however y...

If all goes well - you could possibly/probably be out of the airport by 2:30 (I am assuming you will need to wait for luggage. It takes about 30 minutes to get to the other end of the island (if memory serves me right). So, in my opinion - get to Secret Harbour Beach Resort! If they have Beachfront ...

Thank you both for your support.

I feel better now.

Wow - you are "wicked" - but, I like it!!!

My recommendation, based on places we have stayed at on STT would be either Secret Harbour or Best Western Emerald Beach. If it were me, I would base my decision on "how much time" I would be at the hotel. If I arrived early enough in the day to really enjoy a gorgeous beach with great sno...

Okay - I am going to get nasty here. I looked at the great webcam of Magen's & got BLINDED by the big notice re: no passports are needed to visit the US Virgin Islands. Yes - I already knew that - and "Yes" I already have a passport - But, I HATE the thought of many, many travelers who...

Ron, Nice to see someone out there who is as "detail-oriented" as me! I feel more relaxed doing my "homework" before I arrive on the island. I think that there is nothing worse than waking up each day & going through the ole "What are we going to do today?" routine....

Yes, I believe we have found someone crazier than "our Tracy". You were brave - this person is a lunatic! Pet a shark WHILE it is feeding. Sounds like a disaster waiting to happen. Whereas - you were just being a "spirited observer" - yes - that sounds about right??!!?? Come to t...

Even though we will be in Tortola (for the first time) in 8 short days - for a 4 night stay - - - I still think that I would encourage you to think, again, about the New Horizons II trip. We took the trip about 2 years ago & absolutely love it! The best part is that you get to go to 4 fantastic ...

As my husband (PappaJim) mentioned - we had a really nice stay there. The beach is really nice - lots of lounge chairs & shade to be had, for those who like it. LOVED hearing the water at night - right from your bed. Really nice having beachfront accomodations. We really did a lot of touring dur...

Loved listening to the podcast! You did a great job! My fingers will be crossed for you to spot your "first" turtle. That first moment is almost too wonderful to put into words. I am smiling a silent smile now as it brings back my first time, as well. Now, after you've spotted your first t...

I don't have an answer for you - but, you "crack me up". You sound just like me!! Over worry, over analyze & "must have a plan for disaster". Trust me - you are just doing your best to cover all your bases. Isn't planning a trip fun??!!?? We are running away for 4 nights to T...

We'd love to meet up with some of our "forum family".

We live in Pepperell, MA (which is right near the Nashua, NH border).

We don't mind travelling either.

Just let us know when & where!

Sue & Jim (fromMA)

That's right - pace yourself!

Thank goodness tomorrow is Valentine's Day - gives me an excuse to skip the treadmill for a day.
