Re: Snorkel lesson suggestions?
I have taught many people to snorkel over the years. One day I was teaching a woman who was having some trouble with breating through the snorkel. A young boy came by and said, "Hey mister, just tell her to breath like DathVader".
She did and that worked for her.

Re: Verizon
I seem to recall some Verizon users saying they could text without charge but calls were $2/minute. It would be best to check with Verizon as there are so many different plans.

Re: Long term car rental
You need to be careful regarding your insurance when you do a long term rental. I have collision coverage provided through my credit card but it is limited to two weeks of coverage. You best check with your credit card issuer. Then or at the same time check with your personal insurance company as so...

Re: AA direct flights from Boston?
The AA direct flight is gone. Using AA with a stop kills the entire day, coming and going. It did give me the oportunity to spend $80 on two hamburgers and two glasses of wine at Shulas in the Miami airport. The Jet Blue flight I am taking is direct to STT and has a very brief stop in PR on the way ...

Re: What to do for a few hours
Secret Harbor is quiet, and has a nice beach. There is also a restaurant on the beach. It is also very close to Red Hook.

Don't count on a porter if it is a busy Saturday
On Saturday the airport can be so busy and so backed up that getting a porter can be next to impossible. One Saturday it took us more than a half hour to find one that was available and that was only because I know the system and know where to find one. We had a family come over to us while we were ...

Okay, that makes sense! Thank you! There is nothing wrong with the E building it is just that many people find it more convienient to have their condo right on the part of the beach where they spend all there time. What restaurants do you recommend for: 1. Family restuarant with fun environment Mol...

All the buildings have good views. Generally the higher you are in the building the better the view. The D and E buildings beach is unswimable so I prefer the A, B, or C buildings so that you are on the part of the beach where you will spend you time. It is also nice to be close to your condo to run...

It also has the same information for my wife and ,in her case, the name of any medications to which she has...

Larger units at Sapphire
C3p1
I don't know if you are aware that Sapphire has larger units. You were in a suite. There are also villas that occupy the top two floors in each building. They can hold up to 6, and work very well with 4.

Real Estate Taxes
The last I heard the USVI government thought that the 2006 Real Estate Tax Bills would be going out this June. I haven't heard anything for some time. Can someone update the situation?
