Just returned....

Post by Nic in KC »

We had another absolutely wonderful trip to St. John. Visited Jost during this trip too. Having major disappointment that this trip is over and not knowing when we will be returning.

I will post a full trip report and I'm determined that pictures will accompany it this time. :D

The main differences from our trip in May were the weather and the fact that the mosquitos were hardly seen at all. We stayed at Sundance Villa through Cloud Nine if anyone has any questions before I get the reports typed up!

Trying to get back to reality...

MB-we did the ferry over to Jost. It went perfectly and we loved that day!

Chris-I knew you were on our flight down and likely the 4:00 ferry over so it was funny! We didn't leave until the 10am ferry on Saturday. Surely you didn't mean in your post that this was your last trip to St. John :shock:

I knew you were on the flight from Chicago. I looked for you but well I didn't know how to look for you. I even tried to have my family say my name "Chris, Uncle Chris" more then normal so you could over hear.
Yeah with the belt breaking down every 10 min. the 3:00 downtown ferry was just a dream. As far as going back. Yeah we THINK we will go back in 2 years. But she never believes it till it happens. The crew and I were at Beach BAR on the 7th but didnt see anyone. Or nobody came up to us. Because again I dont know what the people on the board look like.
Its all good!

Chris-did you by any chance sit on the top deck in the center towards the front? At one point I did hear someone say Chris and there was a guy standing up at that point, but I didn't take the chance on hollering to see if it might be you! We didn't even make it to The Beach Bar until Friday afternoon about 6pm. It's the waiting for the next trip that is so tough!

Chris-it was you!! That'll teach me to speak up. You didn't happen to see the little boy's hat fly off on the side and a couple catch it! I know several people looked when that happened. We were the couple!

Pia-KC is crazy hot! We only made it to Maho twice this trip,but one day we were there for 12 hours. I looked, but didn't see you. We are hoping and praying that you and everyone else don't get hit by any bad tropical storms! Stay safe!

no, sorry I missed that. With me sitting up front I didnt have much of a view. Yeah I wished you did say hi. But then there I was in Chicago looking for a hint that someone sitting in that waiting area was from KC. I was looking for a Chief shirt anything!
All I had to do was stand and say I was looking for NC in KC.
Its all good!
