Hi all,
Wow.... it's great to be here. Writing from Villa Jumbie in Coral Bay. We spent the day at Maho and all the stress just melted away. We were sitting here tonight and discussing how different we feel after just being here for 24 hours. This place is magical.
Salt Pond tomorrow.... more to come plus pics!

Stay tuned...

So happy for you! Enjoy!

Make sure you make the hike to Ram's Head. It's one of my favorite things to do.

Hi Cindygad,
We spent today at Salt Pond.... excellent snorkel today.
We were at Maho yesterday. We're having so much fun seeing friends that we've met in previous years.
We just got back from their house.... what a drive! YIKES!

Hope to see you,
Lisa

Beds here are awesome. Really comfortable here! There's probably a 2" sponge layer on top the mattresses. I'm very comfy. I've had back/shoulder problems prior to coming and I'm doing well..... or is that the rum? Not sure. Will figure it out tomorrow. Keep you posted.

Snorkeled Salt Pond today.... always a wow! Saw my first queen triggerfish today!!
tinypic.com is telling me the picture will only allow a certain size although I'm using the copy for the forum posting. Does the forum no longer accept those?

Will post soon. Sorry gang back home.... I know how I love the posts when people are on island.

Thanks for the update on the beds. We loved the home but just could not sleep on the beds. Now that they have a topper on them, I might just have to book for next spring!

MN - brrrrr..... it sounds nasty!
Not heading back until next Tues. Appreciating every minute of this vacation.
Not taking a single moment for granted.
I love it here.

MNFun, I'm having the same problem with tinypix. I just posted a question about it under a separate topic, so hopefully we'll get some help. I'm looking forward to sharing your trip with you!
Savor every second!

I do a word document then cut and paste. It gets a little complcated when you add pictures, but It helps.
