I apologize but my techie was here and did a lot of stuff couple of weeks ago and when I reminded him of the camera he said he was hungry and would be back. As of tonight I texted him and hopefully he will answer and get it done this week end!!

Re: Trying to find a beautiful quiet beach in STT

Secret Harbour is another fine choice. Lindbergh Bay as well. Note: There is no beach named Emerald Beach. Please call it by it's correct name, Lindbergh Bay. There is a hotel by that name on Lindbergh, not the beach.

Re: Seaweed in the VI

I don't ever recall seeing so much of it in my lifetime. Quite a site to see it floating across the harbor in the morning. Everyone flying in always mention seeing bunches of it on the way here.

Re: One night in STT

Nice photos! We have been calling St Thomas the Rock for some years. Affectionately call Rock City by some. We are one big rock. Every hillside road you drive on you see rock. Try to build and as you dig you hit rock. We are the Rock!!
Exit, I thought they referred to Tortola as Chocolate City?

Re: Spending night on St Trauma

St Trauma is a word the wonderful folk in STJ like to call us. First time I heard a visitor refer to it that way. Thanks for the referrals to those that have. The downtown ferry is always hit and miss and I don't know why the powers to be allow it to continue. They have an obligation to provide the ...

Re: Vendor's Plaza location

You can stop by there the weekend of March 14th and see a huge car sale there under one of my tents!! Guess someone will be making use of the pads.
I found it pretty weird. Looked like cages for animals waiting to be slaughtered.

Re: Amazingly Brazen

I stayed at a villa once as the guest of the owner. He showed me the villa then told me to pick a bedroom, which I did, then he proceeded to lock the other bedroom doors, which I thought was quite odd, but I guess that would do the trick against unscrupulous renters!

Re: Verizon

They still seem to be one of the companies that don't understand that the US in USVI means United States. I understand as I get guests from time to time that don't know either! 8)

I understand that Verizon is seeking permits for a tower on St Thomas. Verizon users your problems will soon be over. I suppose STJ is also on the plan.

Re: time for lunch on way back?

Any one of the cabbies at the dock in CA will hold your luggage for you while you eat/shop then take you to the airport. They have been doing that for years.
