We did Turtle Inn 3 years ago and it was the best vacation of our life. To compare it to St John is almost impossible. They are totally differant except the are both in the Gulf of Mexico. Turtle Inn is located in Belize, and 95% of the Beliziens are very poor. This in itsself makes the two location...

Day sail

Check out www.sailshakti.com We had a wonderful sail with Dan and Sue. Great boat out of Coral Bay and a great couple to spend the day with. The price was right and they took us out with just another lady, a friend of thiers. I would recomend them, great time!!!

First of all, thankyou for the photo compliments. JMQ, to be real honest, I use the automatic setting most all the time and have had good luck. No, I don't use any filters and I try not to use a flash. Also, I do not use any programs to clean up my photos except for the underwater photos. For all my...

Patr, we live north of Edwarsville about 6 miles. Betty, if your out there, we paid our fee at Trunk Bay right in front of you and we were at Caneel Bay on the beach during that 45 min rain shower while you were pulling into the bay in your dinghy. I remember your conversation with the gal at the co...

trip report/photos

I was able to take off early today and decided to “rewrite” my trip report. We left home and St Louis early 1/18/07 and had only one problem getting out of the airport. I had told my wife how she had to pack her cosmetics but told me she had gone to New York a month earlier and had no problem with h...

a few answers to some of your questions

I litteraly swam into the eagle ray at Vie's beach on the west end. We were face to face and when I pulled up the camera he took off around me and circled before I got the photo taken. I use an Adobe Photoshop program to clean up my underwater photos. It's simple and takes most of the cloudy blue ou...

5 wake ups till lift off

Less than 120 hours till we hope to be airborne for the islands. But its a little shakey here with the weather and a lot of flight cancelations this morning. We had an ice storm last night and forcast for 48 hours more of freezing rain. 125,000 without power in the St Louis area and it will probably...

Look at Horizons Cottage

Ron, We are staying at the Horizons Cottage the last week of Jan and it sounds like what your looking for. We have never seen this location but all the reviews I've read were good and the lady who owns it has been great to deal with. It's out south of Coral Bay near Concordia and offers a great view...
