We ate at Sweet Plantains for the first time in March and it was the best meal we had on island! We always thought it was too expensive for us and never really considered eating there before, but decided to give it a try this time and were so glad we did. We went on their curry night, I had the Masa...

Suzanne, we loved getting married at Hawksnest. It was a morning wedding and we had the beach to ourselves. We picked the spot next to the rocks on the right side of the beach (if you're looking at the water). I loved the contrast between the white sandy beaches and the dark rocks. Here's a link to...

We go to Lameshur and Little Lameshur mainly because of the snorkeling...two of the best snorkels on the island I think! We are avid snorkelers and do a 1-3 hour snorkel most mornings. The Yawzi Point snorkel is awesome. You do have a very short hike from Little Lameshur to get there and it is well ...

Cruzan Rum Cream

We bought a bottle of this when we were in STJ last month and brought it back with us. It is kind of like Baileys but with rum...yummy! Just wondering if anyone has seen this in the states? We haven't seen it around here yet, but haven't looked too hard either. <a href="https://picasaweb.google...

I have 3 hook bracelets and love them all! The first one I bought at Caravan Jewelers over 12 years ago. The next one was a petroglyph hook that I bought at Freebird several years ago. Last year we were in Pattons and I looked at their hook bracelets, they sell Sonya's bracelets but only had them in...

I am not sure exactly how big a mini poodle is but have you actually tried putting her in a soft sided carrier just to try it out? We brought a puppy home with us from Puerto Rico in January. We got a soft sided carrier from Kmart and were able to take it on the plane under the seat. Our puppy was a...

I think fins are a necessity while snorkeling. I would also recommend going to a dive shop at home and buying good quality fins for all. Make sure they are fitted properly and comfortable. The first time we bought snorkeling stuff, we just got it at a sporting goods store and the fins I had gave me ...
