After many disappointments and setbacks....I have finally booked our first trip to St John....
I have been reading this forum for several years...
have enjoyed all the trip reports...and have gained wonderful knowledge about the island....
Now to put some of this knowledge to use!!!! I am so ready!!!
sure I will be coming up with some questions as we get closer to our vacation in June.

Make sure you have a copy of the 'bible' (STJ Off the Beaten Track). Ask away...anything we can do to feed the addiction you already have.

One suggestion. Start saving now for the return trip to STJ. You'll feel so much better on the ferry back to STT knowing there's money in the bank to come back. Trust me...

Get ready to be hooked for life! Once you go, you HAVE to go back. Even my husband loves it and he's NEVER been a beach guy.
