Another Book Suggestion

Post by flip-flop »

I just came across this one online. A new one.

The Pirate's Daughter. Its based in Jamaica, but still a tropical feel.

I'm all set with books for this vaca. I got Water for elephants, The Ominivores Dilema and a friend lend me her copy of Bill Brysons Neither Here nor There (thanks anyway PA Girl!). I will let you know how it was. A few short weeks to go!

Glad you found a copy, let me know what you think. The other stands for anyone that would like it, it is yours.

Naturegirl's list got me thinking. Books, maga, and newspapers really take up a lot of weight in our bags when we travel. We do a lot of relaxing while reading (and drinking) on vacation.

Jimmy Buffet's novel, "A Salty Piece of Land" is another good island read.

I will definately let you know PA girl. Thanks for the suggestion! I love reading on vacation first thing in the morning with my cup-o-joe. Which brings up another question- what's the best coffee on St John?

I definately will check out Ruth's for coffee, spices and hot sauces. Is Kiss of the Jumbee, mild, medium or strong coffee?

Is the Starfish gourmet market opening on November 6th.? Do they have a website?

go on-stjohn.com (think I got the website right) and they have a new blurb about the gourmet market.......think they are opening the 5th or 6h of Nov and no site yet........google David Mugar and link to the site for Mugar Enterprises......he may have something linked for Starfish and the gourmet market...
I am not sure how strong kiss of the jumbie is........Ruth where are ya to answer............:)
