You beat me to it - I was going to suggest the speedo ones - that's what I have and I love them

I've had great luck with baby powder. I just sprinkle it on, it soaks up the moisture so the sand isn't sticky, then brush it right off with my hands. I does leave me with white feet though. Maybe when the current bottle is empty I'll try refilling it with cornstarch.

Never have to - always someone else to start one for me

Yet another vote for ziplocks - an essential packing item. My parasheet is a must. Bug spray wipes - easy for throwing in the small purse when we go into town at night for dinner and/or drinks small bottle of baby powder for getting the sand off. My clothes get packed in a packing cube and take up v...

Exactly what I was going to say Jim - I sent my friend who lives on Guam a message telling her I hoped her home wasn't going to capsize

Our group for April has grown from 6 to 9. We managed to secure another nearby villa, and get tickets on the same flight as the original 6 had already booked. I am in touch with Dohm's to set up land and water taxi and the cars are reserved. My only remaining "open" item is our BVI day tri...

While it certainly can be done cheaper - if you can swing the cost, Captain John is definitely worth the money. The ability to set your own time frame and agenda is near priceless, IMO

Exactly what I needed today while sitting here listening to reports of the approaching Winter Storm.

Great pics and great report - Thanks!

The ornament I sent last year was one I crafted myself (but it wasn't super homemade looking - I was actually very proud of it) using a photo from Maho. The ornament I received did not come from St John, although it's "vibe" was the sort of thing one would expect to find on St John and I l...

I lost 6 lbs on vacation last month. I always lose around that much after a week on St John. I just need to go once a month for about a year and I'll be right at my target weight. My insurance should cover that, right?

Down to only one ticker now, but hopefully not for long.

Only been back a couple weeks and already can't wait for the next one.

Maybe a ticker check for the next trip will make it easier to do the walk of woe in a few days...

So you picked your order up once you arrived? How long did it take, did you just go in and say "I'm picking up my online order?"

I do find the idea of having my groceries all packed up and ready to be picked up once we get on island quite appealing. I wish someone who had tried the service out for that purpose could give some feedback. I'm wondering if the prices are the same as if you actually did the shopping yourself?
