Re: So disappointed

Hi there....I must say that I haven't been put in the "star power" catagory in a long time. Anthony added that by the way. Sorry we will miss each other this time. I will do my best to live up to the category! I look back on our first trip back in 1991 when our son was a chef on St Thomas....
