If we are on the topic of great photos to get you in the mood for St John... http://stjohnusvi.net/photo-galleries/

I truly love to peruse these.

What beach is that?

I only have blessings and prayers to give. Everyone struggles to live well, some struggle to live at all, but we all should easily be able to give our best wishes and dearest hopes to those who need it most.

Yeah I don't do the late nighters. I actually surprise many many people by showing up on St John for my weeklong stay at noon. Usually people get in at evening hours.

The name change had nothing to do with tourists--everything in the territory that wasn't named after a Virgin Islander got renamed in 1970-1990, and anything namable is ALWAYS named after a person. I'm aware of the name changing dates actually, I was just juxtaposing a curiosity of how the Truman n...

I wonder if calling it the Truman airport kept Japanese travelers away. I seriously wonder that.

Thank you to everyone for the information. I really love this puppy girl, and so does my fiancee... I wish there was a way I could bring her, but part of the excitement in bringing her is that she could enjoy a swim in the water and hang out with us. She's very small and friendly and she loves to be...

I read online that pets were allowed on beaches if you clean up after them -- with the exception of Trunk Bay and one other one. Plus you can take the dog anywhere in the national park, provided you clean up after it and have it leashed. from here: http://www.dogfriendly.com/server/travel/uscities/g...

I live in New York and I have a chihuaha terrier, 6.5LB, fully vaccinated and spayed, totally lovable and friendly--and I have a pet carrier duffle bag for her that is airplane friendly for small dogs to ride in the cabin. What I can't seem to figure out is that if I bring my doggy to St John and St...

At 5'2" and 118lbs....it all sounds VERY judgmental! Excuse me, just a thought! Judgmental towards people who make the lives of their fellow passengers far less comfortable because they take up more than their designated space and intrude on the space of those near them? It also seems like a s...

Oh I wasn't asking for assistance -- I was just asking for some info on what its like to take the st croix route. I appreciate the offer though, very kind and islandy

How long is the ferry from croix to st john?

How hard/expensive is it to get from airport to ferry?

that kinda stuff

End Destination: St John From what I gather its about the same price to fly from JFK NY to STX as it is to fly to STT. Anyone ever tried this? Curious what tips might be out there regarding it, I know you can catch a ferry pretty easy to St John but is it as easy as the Cyril E King taxi to Red Hook...

Now I really wonder if this actually pays off.... based on this NY Times article. Joseph Pascarella, who has worked as a baggage handler in Tampa, Fla., for 37 years, said he had noticed the difference. “Before the bag fees, we would handle an average 250 bags on a flight. Now it’s closer to 150 to ...
