Loved your trip report. You are someone who knows how to live life...FULL ON. Oh and I would never judge your eating habits for breakfast as someone who loves cold leftover Chinese food in the am.

What a wonderful trip report, you made the most of every minute, nothing could slow you down. Your pictures are outstanding especially your eagle ray sitings; I am thrilled to see one...lucky you. Congratulations on 30 years!

So happy when I log in and see a new trip report, can't wait!

Just to make it a little tougher...you can look at villas with more than 3 bedrooms too as usually you only pay for the number of guests(# of bedrooms used) Now your spreadsheet can be even bigger!!

I am only sorrry I am going to miss you on St John by a week...I would love to meet the source of this stream of conciousness. Your posts have been a great way to countdown the days to my trip. What will I do the last week? Will you post from St John?

I think the Westin is perfectly fine for a few days especially if you are using points. The rooms were of good size, the bed is comfy, the pool area is quite nice, the beach is not so great but they are running shuttles to the North Shore beaches for now. I think it is completely overpriced but with...

One of my favorites is La Plancha ever since I tried it when they were in the marketplace. I think La Tapa has some of the best food on the island. Too bad the view wasn't better though when we went in March we sat next to Mario Batali and his family. That was interesting, I just wanted to order wha...

I know White Cottage in Point Rendevous has full AC also and no stairs to 2 of the 4 bedroom suites as well as the pool and living area

Snorkle around Waterlemon..we always see starfish and rays and turtles and lots of fish I can't identify( I am always envious of the trip reports that know just what every fish is..not blue fish, red fish, yellow fish) But last time in March we saw a spotted eagle ray(magnificent) and 2 octopus(octo...

Wow, so glad you are okay and can still make the trip. Being on St John will help with your recovery for sure even without the dives

So happy for you and glad everything worked out..St John will forever be a magical place for you and yours

I loved that; so inspiring, such a gift to work with kids like that..it looks like everyone had a grand time.

Okay, this is much more entertaining than your standard ticker which I can't figure out how to post either. I wouldn't be able to think your deep thoughts though so I will have to devise another method of counting down. For some reason thinking deep thoughts always makes me think of the scarecrow in...

I was going to mention beach estate, one of the Schnell villas. You could walk to or swim to the Westin from there. It is a very romantic house, the pool and spa are lovely as is all the stonework. Stayed there a few yeaars back and had a big party with other people staying on island so it is a good...

Yes, these trip reports are what keep me going tll I get there in late June. I love every onee of them. I feel like I know the people who write them!
