How hilarious was that trip? At least you made the best of things with the newbies. But, really, I have to say the trip report is funnier because of them! As usual - beautiful pictures. You certainly do have a great deal of talent - thank you for sharing. One of these days - we too will visit Jost!

Pete - Was it dying? I thought is was just grumpy and cantankerous :wink: .

Great report.
I heard from everyone on White Bay that met you that you are quite sweet.
If you go back to Ivans again ask for Arawak(sp).
Big king size bed and more comfortable and more light to get ya to the bathroom.
I am glad you had fun......I also like how you put your TR all in one day by day......good flow.

Oh, that's different...I'm okay with that.

Very nice TR & Pics.

Personally, I wouldn't give Matt's pals another chance. Life is too short and good travel opportunities must be taken advantage of. I'd consider Abaco the sputtery trial run and this visit the downright nail-in-the-coffin.

Very good thing that you had buddies around to keep things lookin up. That's what buds are all about!

For those that have asked, "what was John and Teresa's overall take on St. John?"

They have no desire to return and considered the highlight of the trip Woody's. 'Nuf said.

I am a very tolerant person and I have a tremendous amount of patience. It would take a lot more than those two to ruin a trip for me! My entire life has taught me that the best practice is to laugh in the face of adversity. Works every time!

And Pete, it's not dying, it's just prickly. :D

Feed him a heavy dose of sarcasm and he'll come around...trust me on this one.

VickiH-
Loved the report and the pictures are simply AWESOME.
If your ever not up about one of your upcoming trips again, you should just read one of you own trip reports. Thanks again.

What a wonderful report, Vicki!

You are more tolerant than me though. I would have just left the "friends" back at the house.

Gorgeous photos, as always.
It's like looking in your soup and finding a whole different alphabet.

Thanks so much for your report, Vicki! As always, its infinitely entertaining and the photos are amazing. Hands down - the best!

Thanks for the Ivan's sidebar. Very informative. Glad you aren't the type of person to let others ruin your trip. Who could hate Vie's beach...seriously?

Sidenote- I'm taking down a group of newbies in May and I learned a valuable lesson from your TR. Any of my Newbie Friends are capable of opening the bathroom door at Woodys while I'm in there. They would leave the door open and walk away! Note to self - don't pee at Woodys! Thanks!

God love ya, woman! More patience than I!
