Tapatalk App Free today

I just noticed the tapatalk app for iPhone/ipad is free today on the App Store. It allows you to easily read, reply, upload photos, etc. to this forum and others that support it.
Just search for tapatalk in the App Store

Re: Beaches that do not have a hard walk???

Little Lameshur is a good choice. Park right behind the beach and lots of options for walking/hiking for those that are interested while your husband relaxes.

Other easy beaches: Jumbie (short, short walk), Vie's beach, and Francis(also has hiking/walking opportunities).

Re: White Bay in June?

We just got back from STJ last week and we spent a day 'josting'. We go to STJ the same 2 weeks every year and it has never been as busy as it was this time - both on STJ and JVD. When we arrived in the morning there were only 3 boats visible and by the time we left at 3:15 my wife counted 28 boats....

Re: lesson learned. Really.

Mongooses cannot climb trees but they will jump on to picnic tables. We did learn to hang the cooler from a seagrape tree after that.

Re: lesson learned. Really.

Our mongoose at Little Lameshur unzipped (not ripped into - unzipped) the cooler while we were snorkeling and got a turkey sandwich out, picked off the lettuce and tomato and ate the turkey...$9.00 gone!

Re: Live from the rock May 26

Thank you for taking the time to post! I made many notes as we will be on the Island in 24 days and am looking forward to trying some new things! Thanks for reading my posts. I started posting to a personal blog (stjusvi.com) a few years ago to keep our friends and family informed, but the Tapatalk...

Live from the rock May 26

Cleaning up to go back to reality is always the worst part of the trip, but this year is a little different because we have a second trip planned for October-so we know we don't have to wait a full year. We went to town last nite and ran into a few forumites, then came back to Coral Bay and had dinn...

Live from the rock May 25

It is a gray day in the Virgin Islands today. I hiked up to America Hill this morning. Beautiful view of Maho and beyond.

54b-I have hiked to ram head several times and it has rained every time. Luckily, I have not made the mistake you did.

Re: Live from the rock May 24

Luckily, I finished hiking right about the time the Tourist Trap was opening :) We are now at Solomon. We parked in town and hiked in on the Lower Lind Point trail. TrvlKaren is NOT a hiker and it took us exactly 30 minutes - it is a little shorter and easier to come from Caneel but the $20 to park ...
