Just looked at the clock. If all goes as planned exactly one week from now we will be touching down in STT. I guess its time to get serious about getting ready. This trip was 9 months in the making hard to believe its almost here.

We are right there with you! Our group of five couples will be coming in on Delta out of Atlanta the same day as you! Hope to see you there. Why does the last week seem to take forever!

Here is where we are staying,

I am a little nervous because I have never seen a villa review or even heard of anyone staying there.

I will give it a thorough review for future hopefuls when we return.

The villa looks beautiful Im sure it will be wonderful. We will be two couples and my husband's 19 yo daughter who is literally squeezing in this week between two summer jobs, she finishes one in Hartford Ct at 5:30PM Friday night and is on a plane for South Korea 24 hours after we get back. Ah to be young again.

I already dread coming back to work after our vacation. I couldn't imagine flying to South Korea the next day!

We are arriving at 3:07 on Delta and hoping it may be a few minutes early with time to catch the 4 o' clock ferry.

The joys of being 19, Im sure she will crash, but its a long flight to Seoul and this kid can sleep anywhere!

We arrive a few hours earlier by the time you land I hope we are around the pool with a cold one :-)...
Don't hate me!

Hey Benchill - It looks like we'll be on the same flight as you out of Atlanta. Hold our seats for us :-) I'm glad I'm busy at work this week or I'd be going more crazier than normal.

Benchill - We're in row 42, so you'll get to put feet down first on STJ :-(

islandcat,

The back of gthe plane will touch down first, so technically you will beat us!

Awesome, How many in your party? Where are you staying?

The last week is always the hardest to get through.
Time to really get into the island mood – get the steel pan music cranked – put on the coconut smell sunscreen – line up the rum bottles in front of the blender. You’ll be there before you know it. Have a great trip.

Benchill – nice digs where you’re staying. ENJOY.

Benchill -

It will be just my wife and I celebrating our 30th. We are staying at Perelandra. I've never seen anything even close to a bad review for that villa and the owner has been extremely nice and helpful.

And I agree with FlaGeorge. Nice place!!!!

T-minus 125 1/2 hours until touchdown. That sounds so much better than 125 days :-)
