Hello my name is Jay and I have an Island Problem

Post by captainjay »

Pulled the trigger yesterday and booked flights and rented a friends condo at Saphire Beach. This is the third trip in twelve months. We had vouchers for a couple hundred a piece from US Air from our trip last Feb and the flights only cost us $150 apiece on top of the vouchers, just couldn't pass it up. Looks like thanksgiving weekend in the islands for a second year in a row. I think I might have a problem? :lol:

Don't feel like the lone ranger. When we return in November, it will be our 4th trip to STJ in 20 months :shock: . I'm thinking we need rehab.
Going "home" again October 26th!

You call it a problem, I call it good fortune.

I am the one with a problem. I have spent all morning preparing handouts for our trip planning party that we are hosting tomorrow night.

As I sit down at my desk at work every day I'm greeted with a map of S.T.J. in front of me. I also have many pics of my past trips on my desk too. That island has been in my blood for 13 years! Man I love that place! Parafins :D

Great problem to have. My screen saver is a fantastic picture of St. John taken from the air, my license plate is a friends of the park plate with a picture of Trunk Bay, we all wear our woodys, skinnys and beach bar shirts and hats at any opportunity and we usually book our return for the next year the day we are leaving. Six years in a row and we can't imagine going anyway else.

Welll, we just got back last week from STJ and we'll wave at you as we cruise down over Thanksgiving. And then again, next March!

I've just given myself over to my problem!

I think the airlines are feeding our addiction by tempting us with such low fsres.

Jay, How was Thanksgiving in the islands last year in terms of the traditional foods. Can you get turkey and things like that at grocery stores?? We are headed to St. Thomas as well for the week of thanksgiving and were wondering about cooking thanksgiving dinner :?
