I tried it. It didn't come even close to working.

Maybe the guy is faking it and having a laugh on us all.

We just watched it. My husband and I were shocked by the changes they made to the kitchen. We both thought it was way better before. I hope someone else made good use of the HUGE slab of granite they replaced.

Re: Coral Bay Restaurants

We just got back from our annual trip! Rhumb Lines' new location in Coral Bay has the same feel as their former location, just bigger. It was great, as always, and there were two sweet resident cats to keep us entertained.

Re: Marriage Officiant

My sister got married on St. John in 2016 and a member of the groom's family got ordained in order to perform the ceremony. He had to go to the court house on STT with the couple to complete the paperwork. Note that you have to be dressed up to go to the court house. My sister had a sleeveless dress...

Re: STT Taxi with Car seat

I have a 5 year old and an 8 year old, and they've both been going to STJ since they were a year old. We've always taken their car seats on board the planes. We bought inexpensive (~$35) Cosco brand seats at Wal-Mart for airplane travel and it's worked very well for us.

Re: American Airline 3 hour check-in?

I don't know if this information is still current, but in the past, the reason for the 3 hour requirement was because the same employees who did check in would leave the front desk to go work as gate agents. I've heard horror stories, but I don't know if things are still as bad as they've been in th...

Re: Food Truck

The last I heard, they were still figuring out a new place to go, but that was a couple months ago.

Their website is still showing Hansen, so it's not been updated:

Re: On island with 3-year-old in July - ideas?

My girls are 5 and 8 and have been going to STJ annually since they were 1 year old each. One thing that kids don't typically care for is sunblock application (and we use the reef-safe type that has physical barrier, not chemical barrier ingredients, which is thicker and harder to spread), so we alw...
