Mine's written (although probably WAY to long because I wrote a daily journal and probably won't put the effort in to edit it down). Does anybody want to read the unabridged version?
I have all the pics edited. I need to pick the best ones. Work has been killing me. I will post soon. ("soon" meaning island time "soon", not Ohio time "soon").

I really want to write a trip report, especially because I received so much help here. I tried to write a daily report, but I'm not familiar with attaching pictures and pictures are worth about a thousand or so words...
If you want to see some nice pics of my son's wedding you could go to this... I think you have to google it in...meg.bigfolioblog.com
The wedding was at Trunk on May 15. We ate at Caneel and we really enjoyed it, although others at the time weren't that happy. I think part of it was the great atmosphere, it is such a beautiful place...sure expensive, but for a wedding we really had great service and the food was delicious. The pic of my daughter and the roll with a knife is funny because I told her you are always supposed to tear a roll, not cut it. Just a little family joke pic, I guess.
I'll still try to write a report, things are very hectic here. It makes me appreciate even more those who take the time to write.

17th I should have kept a journal as for some reason some events are a little foggy not sure why

Lucky I took lots of pics and there in chronological order to help my memory.

Cinnyb, loved your wedding photos. They were so sweet, made me tear up and I don't even know you! Glad to hear the wedding was wonderful - know it was a lot of work to make it happen.

Thank you for the compliments on the wedding pics. We were fortunate to have our friend come down and photo the wedding.
We did stay on the east end. We stayed at Cameron Cove and liked the location so close to Pelican Rock with good snorkeling everywhere out there. Just a short walk down to the pebble beach. The view from the veranda was really beautiful. We liked the layout of the villa, for two couples it would be nice. Our daughter stayed in the second bedroom with it's own bathroom.
My son and his wife stayed at Rebecca's Fancy. That was less than a mile away. It is about across from Vie's beach, where the old boat is. The couple who own it are building a home up above, but that was never a problem. They are very nice.She even ironed my daughter's dress and the bride's. I think it was a cute honeymoon cottage.
The one drawback was the trips we had to make to Cruz Bay took up quite a bit of time. It was things that couldn't be helped like lost luggage, etc. If you could just stay there on the east side of the island it would have saved some time. Privateer Bay is right there and we did go check it out. Interesting rock formations, very pretty. We also swam around the mangroves by Haulover. That was neat.
If anyone has any questions I would be glad to answer them.
