Re: Virgin Island Natl Park video

At one point, a friend suggested that we take the dingy ashore, where we toured a very beautiful garden. It probably was the Rockefeller garden, although I didn't realize it at the time. Hi Kevin, FYI, there are three gardens to tour in and around Acadia: Asticou Azalea Garden (very Asian inspired)...

Re: Flight Cost Anxiety Woes

Mahojim, usair has flights out of philly to STT for $304.00...and the flight times are great! We are flying usair from KC this year because of the price and flight times. So, I don't know how good they are with delays etc, but the price and flights are good. I also got their dividend miles credit ca...

Re: Virgin Island Natl Park video

I love videos/documentaries like that too aquaGirl. Rockefeller also donated land for Acadia National Park in Maine and financed all of the beautiful carriage roads and bridges. Plus, the Rockefeller Gardens located within the park will take your breathe away! We are all so fortunate that Rockefelle...

Re: Another Ticker Check to keep me going in -15 WCF

Mine is a bit longer than yours, however it is still an inspiration when the thermometer read -23* without the windchill factored in this morning ! :shock: I can sympathize with you Pam! I was born and raised in Maine, only been in KC for work since 2002. It can get down to -23 here too, but the th...

Another Ticker Check to keep me going in -15 WCF

It's Thursday at least, but I need to get out of my warm bed along with my dreamy thoughts of being on St. John. The windows all have frost on the inside, I can hear the cold wind blow out there, I have to get up, get showered, and head out into it....so I need a ticker check to give me motivation :...

Re: Swim noodle????

I travel with a swim noodle in my duffle bag... bends nicely around the perimeter. I won't snorkel without it. My noodle has been to Aruba (a few times), Bermuda, Hawaii, and has just completed its 3rd trip to St. John. I think it likes St. John best. :D Coralbay14, that is hilarious! I hope you ge...

Re: What food do you bring?

I bring our favorite coffee, filters, and trail mix. We stop at starfish and get eggs , cheese, and bread. We enjoy breakfast in...but we love our lunch and dinners out! I hope to get over to Vie's on the east end this time..we haven't eaten there yet.

Re: OMG! Hubby in hospital and we leave in 2 weeks!

Oh northerngal, I can only imagine how worried you are about everything, but it's out of your hands. I would try to pin the doctor/nurses down to really let me know if it's unsafe for hubby to travel. If not, it might be the best thing for him, fresh warm air, R&R, you'd have to take it easy, bu...

That's excellent information jsauls1, thank you! An hour and 30 minutes isn't a lot of time.

Re: Painkillers aside, what else at Soggy Dollar?

Thanks guys! All of those ideas are good ones. I had to google the game that hotrns and michigan girls mentioned, I love games, and would you believe there's a YouTube video showing someone playing the game at the soggy dollar! I checked out the webcam too...getting excited! :)

Painkillers aside, what else at Soggy Dollar?

My husband and I have wanted to go to Soggy Dollar, so we're doing it via Kekoa January 26...my husband will no doubt love it! Sailing to, then swimming up to a bar in the BVI, that's what he dreams about :lol: . But, I'm not much of a drinker, so while he's enjoying those painkillers, is there some...
