We just got back to Virginia after 10 days of living life the way it should be--on St John. This was our first trip back since 98 so there were a few changes to the island, but the beauty and magic is still there. This time we brought 3 newbies with us so it was fun seeing it throught there eyes too. I just wanted to thank all of you who provided me with such valuable information..to Waterguy-the boys loved fishing with Double-header, they caught mahi and tuna and had to fight the sharks for the tuna!! To Pia-The charter with Lion-in-da-sun was geat and we enjoyed being able to choose our own destinations. To Xisland girl-Rachel was such a sweet person who you knew was just so proud of her island-and loved telling stories as she drove you around. To Ruth-all your info and suggestions made our trip one we will never forget. It was fun meeting "friends" I hadn't ever met before at the Beach Bar. My son and his wife bought me a "forum" koozie from Ruth's store the day we got there and you'd be suprised how many people responded to that thing!! My family used to tease me about how much time I spent on the forum but after the last 10 days I think you have earned their respect. Thanks again everyone-you mad our trip something we will never forget. Is it too soon to start planning our return?

Your family teased you about us? Your Forum Friends? That's so mean!
I guess we showed them, didn't we?
It was really a pleasure to meet you and your gang and it was fun to see how much you were all properly enjoying yourselves.
See you next time.

Glad you and your gang had a great time! Just a few weeks ago, our boys had a blast on Double Header too!
Nothin' like super fresh mahi & tuna for dinner!
Hope you don't have to wait another 9 years to get back to STJ! Post some pics if you get a chance . . .

Welcome back! I am glad you had a great time too.
My family respected my forum addiction more after going to STJ too. I think they appreciated all of the
research that I did because it made the trip better for them.
It is never too soon to plan the next trip. I am already trying to figure out how I will get back there after the Nov. trip.
