Lulu and Friends' Trip Report

[chriscartman]

Keep it coming LuLu!
I was so relaxed that I didn't keep up with my trip journal. I'm relying on you to fill in the parts I'm missing.

I said that I couldn't mention his name, but it involved looking at our girlie parts. We are in mixed company.

And why everyone relies on me to produce memories still amazes me. On the plus side, I drank less this year!

Lulu-
We missed you by a week. I love the way you write!
Sounds like you had a blast.
Can't wait for more!

Lulu,
I went and posted my little side trip to the BVI's.
I think am ready to go back. I told Ruth I do not think I can wait til July...

We did have a blast, and I was sorry to miss you. I was also glad not to rent Island Horizons after you because you ruined the pool. (The driveway also sounds scary, even though I am doing much better on St. John roads.)

I will try to write more this evening. I'm swamped with work and getting ready for Turkey Day at my house!

[Lulu76]

Here, look at what we've posted of the pictures while you wait for me to get the act together with the trip report.

I think I have isolated the location of the notebook, so maybe I'll do some of it tonight!

I really enjoyed your pictures Lulu, what kind of camera do you have?

[Lulu76]

Some of them are the other girls' camera, but I think mine are most of them. My camera is a Fuji A920, I believe. Just a point and click one, because I'm too dumb for anything else. I do really love the pictures it takes, although I'd give anything to be able to take a good picture of St. Thomas at night! They still didn't look great even with 9 megapixels.

One of the other girls has the Olympus waterproof outfit that she bought from the link here (850 maybe?) and two of the girls have those Nikon Coolpix, I believe. I think they have the same camera.

I'm quite pleased with mine. I think my favorite picture is the one of Maho with the shadows of the palm trees on the beach.

I didn't take nearly as many pictures this time. I think I realized that I'd be back again for more memories!

[Ksea]

Thanks Lulu. Agree, the palm tree shadow picture is my favorite too, but you have a lot of nice ones.

[Lulu76]

The sunsets at the villa were amazing, too.

[California Girl]

Neat pictures! And some real cute ones of you, too! Looks like you were feeling NO PAIN at Ivan's! LMAO!!

[sea-nile]

Yes, great pictures!
Thanks for the report!

[chriscartman]

You're right. It was an Olympus SW850 and I did purchase it through the forum's link. Support the forum!
It was the first time using it and I'm pleased with how easy it was to use. I was really pleased with the sunset setting and how the photos turned out. However, the night photos of St. Thomas did not come out even with the night setting.
I will now end the camera review so LuLu can get on with posting the trip report.

I do believe you like your drinks as much as my Buddy Andy and I do while on Island or anytime for that matter Party ON Girl Maybe someday we shall kick a few back on the rock. Ya might have me beat on drinking references in you trip reports

[NoTanLines]

Lulu, you're killing me! I thought I had a cast iron liver. Could the person you're referring to on Jost be Nippy? This gentleman took a liking to me several years ago and followed me up and down the beach asking to be my boyfried. He said "we like your kind on our island", while ignoring my much smaller (size 6) travel mates.


The next time I'm in Nashville on business, I'll have to look you up!

Cheers,
Christine
