Just back from Walmart and picked up a Cingular GoPhone for $18 which included $10 in airtime (@ .10/min). $8 phone....what a deal!

Thanks for the tip!

kygirl -- what villa are you staying at? We will be at Memory Daze in exactly 2 weeks. If you have any leftover rum that you don't want to bring back to the states you can't just bring it next door!

We are using Capt. George with Flyaway Charters on June 5th....we are psyched! <a href="http://www.TickerFactory.com/"> <img border="0" src="http://tickers.TickerFactory.com/ezt/d/4;10732;125/st/20070602/e/Our+Trip+Back+to+St.+John/k/e41c/event.png"></a>

Since our nextel phones will not work on vacation, I was thinking about getting one of those cheapo prepaid phones from cingular/at&t that I saw at walmart for $18 and then just load up on the pay-as-you cards (@ .10/min).

I concur that I wouldn't stress yourself trying to rush to make that earlier ferry. Even with a private taxi, you will likely run into some "rush hour" traffic in town. That being said, we have always gone the private taxi route and highly recommend it. It is only slightly more expensive t...

My wife and I absolutely love the laid back atmosphere of Coral Bay and wouldn't consider staying anywhere else. We are staying at Memory Daze (Windspree) this year and it looks absolutely incredible. http://www.windspree.com/homes/memorydaze/ However, 2 very close runner up's were -- St. John Livin...

Has anyone used Wheatley's Taxi? Freddy with Dynamic Tours -- our usual go-to private taxi from the airport to redhook was unavailable so someone recommended we try using Wheatley's.
