Is there someplace on STT, either in Charlotte Amalie or Red Hook, that you can ship stuff ahead to, like Connections on STJ?

Okay, the name is Mail Plus and the phone # is 340.714.5068. The owner seemed real nice over the phone...
Here's a link to the business opening in newspaper.

If you are staying at a villa - call the local agency and have it sent to their office and delivered to your villa.
Crown Bay has a mail service - locals and boats have packages sent there. 776-4324
Red hook Mail Services -- same kind of services - very reliable 779-1890
No one is as good as Cyd and her crew at Connections but she is the standard of excellence!

Thanks ExitZ! I'll be going on a boat, but I'm not sure if we're leaving out of Crown Bay or Red Hook as far as having something shipped to Crown Bay goes. I'll call the numbers you referred me to.
Much appreciated, thanks again!

Hey Margo,
What do you want to ship?
We actually leave from the French Town marina.
CYOA doesn't have a lot of storage, but I have sent a small package ahead of me arriving.
Also, Jay works for CYOA, he and Deb might hold a package for you.

Hey Sydney - Why didn't I ask you FIRST?? DUH! I want to ship, believe it or not, my sunscreen! I had to mail order some really good stuff, can't find it in the stores, so I wanted to send it ahead. It comes in 6 or 8 oz. tubes, so I can't bring it in my carry-on. If we end up NOT flying thru San Juan or Miami, I may still check my luggage. Luggage seems to go missing in San Juan and Miami.

I'm sure they would hold that for you. We always check bags, and in all the yers, have only had a few small problems....touch wood.
Is it that Banana boat surf stuff you had last year? I ordered some to. You could always send it to me and I could bring it for you. We fly over two days, so less chance of problems.

Yup! Banana Boat Surf! I have a year to get my act together, but maybe in the end, I'll just send it to you.
Thanks Syd!!
Can you tell I'm excited? A year out and I'm worried about getting my sunscreen to STT! LMAO!!!
