Hi Forum Folks! I am back at work this morning, having just said "goodbye" to Scubagirl late last night in the Charlotte airport and Gromit a few hours earlier. I think I am still swaying slightly from my sea legs and I swear I can still hear the waves lapping against the side of the boat, but the reality is that it's 28 degrees outside and I'm at my stinkin' desk!

I know many of you who have considered sailing trips are eager to hear about this trip and the rest of you are just interested in the gory details of 6 virtual strangers on a sailboat in the Virgin Islands for 8 days.

Patience. Details soon come.

I will tell you it was an AMAZING week. Wonderful. Full of beautiful locations, great friends, good food, and some damn funny events.

Who figured out that Cheetos are a cure for motion sickness? Who flipped backwards out of the dinghy? Who had one too many and busted her iPhone at the Soggy Dollar? Who makes a kick a$$ taco salad? Who learned to shower with no more than a handi-wipe?

Find the answers to these questions and more when the trip report finally swims its way to the surface.....

Hurry up with that report. I need some sunshine stories to chase away the year-end blues.

It's like that Mac McAnally song I heard on Radio Margaritaville this morning during that very cold drive to the Milwaukee airport..."It's a fine line between patience and gone."

Aren't there some OSHA rules that prohibit working the day after returning from STJ?

You all must feel like you've been rudely injected back into reality.

I'm so glad to hear that it was great, as it's just what I'd expected! Yay for fulfilled prophecies!

And when I see your trip report, well, Merry Christmas to me!

I can't wait for your trip report! I know who makes the best taco salad, but I won't tell! What I want to know is who's doing backflips out of the dinghy??

I can't wait to see all the gory details. I have missed you.

OK, quick show of hands. How many people from this forum have ruined their phone at Soggy Dollar?

I'm just glad it's not just me.
