Our flights are finally booked for our anniversary trip in August! No kids! No worries! And hopefully no signs of the "H" word that kicked our booty back in Oct. with Otto~ :x

Also want to plan a BVI trip out with Capt. Brandi, take the Reef Bay and Ram's Head hike, visit Vie's Snack Shack and beach, snorkel Haulover, Lamshure's, visit Denis Bay and rent a dinghy!

This will be our 9th trip and still so much to explore!
Now just the hardest task of all . . . where to stay! :shock: Let the games begin!! :D

No plans yet on location but always love to look at a different view each year! Sailview in Coral Bay has caught my eye though. Great reviews and great rental rate so we can afford the BVI trip too! Also thought about taking the ferry over to JVD and staying on White Bay a few days. A few hours is never enough!! :wink:

Yea Mary Beth on your anniversary trip too! Hope October treats you better than 2010!! I know it will since there will be no "H" word in 2011~ :D

I wish my ticker would hurry up! I'm sick of the snow and cold! I want to snorkel and drink a painkiller!

We will have to do one of our Dallas dinners before we all go on our trips. Maybe March?

Hey John!
March sounds good! I think SOonthebeach is trying to see what date will work best.
Upcoming catamaran trip? Lucky you! I will need to hear all about it when we get together!!!
Enjoy this snowy weather . . . it should be gone tomorrow~ :wink:

Hey John! Yes- Colleen and I were discussing another DFW gathering- I think March will be great. Will be right after our trip and I will already be jealous of all of you going in the spring and summer :wink:

I will look at some dates and locations and throw a topic out there soon. Stay warm!

SOonthebeach will need to bring plenty of pictures to the dinner.
We have the same group of 4 couples going on this cat as the last trip we did. We plan to spend more time on some of the remote places this time. Can't wait. I never did post any pictures or trip reports. I am bad about that.
