I have good news and bad news.
First the good - the Mosquitos are back to normal.
Now the bad - this is flippers last full day

. Please join in a round of pity for me.
Gibbey is gorgeous, just got id'd by Amy from the forum. Planning to say bye to ruth tomorrow. We'll be on the 12 noon ferry

FF- you must be relaxed--do you mean Gibney? Or is there a new beach we don't know about?
I was thinking about you this AM. So glad that Amy finally spotted you! I told her to give you a hard time if she did
Enjoy your last full day of paradise and bring me back some sun! Hugs!

I told you that it’s hard to click the heels of flip flops. Sounds like she has the effects of running through a Gibbney field. This isn’t Kansas Toto or should it be – This isn’t DC mini flip-flop. Enjoy your last day. And repeat after me – There’s no place like STJ, There’s no place like STJ.

I thought it was spelled Gibber? Or, is that after the Bushwackers?
It's raining in NoVa, can you hear your lawn growing?
Cheers, RickG

Yup, I finally saw the flip-flops at beautiful Gibney (or Gibby, Gimlet, or Gibbme!), and I have a photo to prove it:
Flip is so nice, and so is Mr. Flip and Little Flip. The Littlest Flip was limin' in the shade. A beautiful family!
I think Gibney is my new fave beach. We'd only snorkled there before from Hawksnest, never sat there for any length of time. But man, what a perfect beach! I loved it so much that after I brought the boys back home to hang out and relax, I went right back, sat and read and gazed at the view, then went for a good snorkle on the right side by the rocks. A photo from this morning (and I think that is flip-flop in the distance before I realized it was her):
Have a safe trip home--it was great to meet you!

Can't wait to read your trip report.
Safe travels home!
