California Girl.. No worries with Cape Air. I've flown with them 5 times and they are great. You fly in the plane with 4-5 others. Maybe even co-pilot which is a unique experience. Once we had just my wife and 2 girls on the single flight. Nothing like a plane to yourself. I'm assuming your taking t...

I've stayed on St. Thomas twice. Frenchmans Reef and what was the old Wyndam property. I rented a car once and found it tough to park in town and found it tough to park at Red hook for St. John Ferry visits. With that said I do still rent cars for St. John visits, but would do the cab thing for any ...

A nice lady braids hair on the same side of the street as Mongoose junction by Margarita Phils. If she is not at her stand she has a cell phone number to call on her sign I think.

I say combine the best , have a drink at ZOZO's watching the sunset over St. Thomas. Then head over to Rhumblines for a great dinner.

He was able to move next door to another villa. His villa was booked. The property manager at Mahogany Tree helped him. I guess he got the second week very cheap, being very very last minute. He also had to pay $300 to change flights. Overall I'm sure the 2nd week was a deal for him. Maybe this is t...

So know I have to look at his damn empty desk for another week knowing he is on the beach. From his phone call he gets it and...
