I'm a completist and needed to get this TR done so I could start on the next one.

Augie, you can be certain I'll have the next TR done before you're back in paradise! You're in Reef Madness the first week of November?

papabou, thanks for the tip. I've never driven that road sober, so something new every trip! I'd love to see your photos. I'm a geek and my teenager still shows me tricks that I had no idea existed.

Traveler22, bastards. That was my hour!!! I get up early on the last day to bask. I'm bitter, angry, and will make a point stating in the future - no maids until I am gone!!!! (work through the anger and find your center, ahh, there it is in my snorkel bag, packed and ready to go.)

iowaguy and minnjimm, I think we'll have to make some Blackout Punches on the beach in two weeks. I here there's a place on Great Cruz Bay that serves them at sunset?! Maybe we can get MrsB to pop in as bartender?Image

Pia, we'll catch up. We sort of orbit each other when we are on island... follow the rum. Maho Bay on Sunday?

Sea-nile, you are very photogenic. I look forward to your November photo shoot. Maybe Kellyana can give us some posing tips?

Cheers, RickG

Rick---Ha!!! The Iowans would love to have you over for sunset cocktails any time you want to make the trek over from Coral Bay! We'll talk.

Nice ending.

Magen's Bay is one of my favorite beaches; but, I haven't been there since 1991. I was thinking of visiting post-SOTB II in November. I may need to reconsider because I don't want to ruin the memory. :?

Enjoy the next one (and the next one) :D

Thanks, Rick. Great trip report and pictures. Maybe one of these days we will be on the island the same time as you.
Going "home" again October 26th!

Hey Rick,
It was great to jump on here this morning and see this post! I wasn't expecting to see any "reminders" of our trip from last November - you've put me in memory lane again, and SO wanting to get back to paradise! Love your reports, can't wait to hear about your Spring Break trip with your girls and lovely Christine. Have a wonderful time...and just remember, SOTB II are anxiously awaiting their return..Maho, here we come! And the Blackout Punch is gonna be on the menu this time 8)
