We are taking our first Tropical trip with my husbands family next June. I was thinking of making a gift basket with vacation items , so far came up with mask defogger, waterproof pouch for money, tropical fish I D card. Any other ideas? Is this a silly Christmas idea?

I think it's a great idea -

sunscreen
island music CD
beach towel
bug spray
Calendar

If by Tropical you mean St. John, something from St. John Spice - CBGR, coffee, tee, hot sauce, etc.

I'm doing the same thing and if by tropical you do mean St. John, I also included Pam Gaffin's feet, fins, and four wheel drive book and the national geographic St. John map...both are fabulous. I purchased them on amazon.
Have fun!

You can buy those books right here at VIOL, too: http://caribmart.com/usbritviris.html

Maybe a cool hat from St. John Spice company? A tropical themed frame for a vacation photo? A tropical Christmas tree ornament? Body glide if you're planning on alot of hiking. Possibilities are endless! Sounds like a VERY fun basket to put together!

Greyhound mom gave me a "Forum Bag" last year. It would be a cool "basket" for all your stuff. It is a great bag!
