We were down in July and used Zip Rentals for the second time. We needed a van for 8 people too, I know what your going through. We didn't want to have to park two cars or if we made a wrong turn or changed our minds the one van would make it so much simplier. Also just for sightseeing it was more f...

Less than 48 hours!!!

I's so excited! I'll be on STT in less than 48 hours. We'll be down for the week and I really really can't wait to have my biggest decision be which beach to go to and where to have dinner.

Corkyqh, you enjoy yourself too. When we went to STT last year it was the first time my kids saw blue water. It was awesome to see their faces. Knowing what to expect this year is just as good, as you know!

Saturday soon come!!!!

So I will be writing a trip report.

Paul, I'm with you in that I'm not as colorful of a writer as some but I'll give it my best shot. My dates are 7/18 to 7/25, what are your dates? We'll be at the Frenchman's Cove.

We plan on a day trip to Water Island so I will fill you all in on that too.

I leave in 26 days!!!!

I've been a big-time lurker and a small-time poster to this forum. I LOVE the forum but I visit St. Thomas and will have only a day trip to St. John and there aren't too many posts for St. Thomas. My question is would you be interested in a trip report from someone who will be spending most of her t...

We will be coming back in July and plan on a day at WI to, would you please let us know what your day was like there? It...

True story here. I had a cousin in Ireland run off the road, a road similar to the roads on STJ, by a stampeding bull. Coming from New York I didn't know if this was something that happened over there (not kidding, I can be gullible) but I was told it was just as freaky to them. So watch out for tha...

My flight in July was changed to 7:00 a.m. too. The only silver lining is that I'll be on island an hour sooner but it's a small consolation. We (8 of us) take the "train to the plane." In order to do that we have to take a train at about 1:30 a.m. which will have us in the airport by 3:30...

Pedicures are a need, not a want. Once every two weeks in the summer and once a month in the winter. It's my lunchtime relaxation!

cypressgirl, thanks for the websites . . . I think, lol. I didn't take your warning, you're right about getting in trouble. This is more along the line of what I've been looking for and maybe even more casual would work. I'm not a big clothes shopper and when I'm forced to I usually end up coming ho...
