I can't remember if I have ever given a trip report before, but thought I would share some pictures and a few comments about this year's trip. I thought about giving a day by day, but really, who wants to read: "Woke up, went to a beach, snorkeled, came to town for lunch, relaxed by the Gallows...

1. Snack Bar is open!

2. I do not know.... but there is a new ECO tours shack on Honeymoon that was open last week when we were there.

Just about all I bring to STJ is light, quick dry shorts and shirts. There are several companies that sell them. Eddie Bauer, Colombia, etc...

Ferry Service to stop at 7pm tonight.

We will be arriving 3 weeks from today!!! September 8th!!!
