Re: underwater cameras
Check out the Olympus Stylus TOUGH TG-3 Digital Camera. I was in the same boat - wanted a point & Shoot, but wanted something that was waterproof. This camera is great and take great pictures and movies. Waterproof to 50 feet. It is a tough little camera with a large screen. I'm glad we got it. ...

Re: Spirit Air Nightmare
Flying is such a nightmare now-a-days. With all the airlines doing mergers, it is only going to get worst. Glad you had a good 9 days on the rock and like someone said, at least it didn’t happen on the way down. Not only do you make reservation months in advance to get a good fare, but the airlines ...

Re: Must do' for a first timer on STJ
In my opinion – the best kept secret beach on STJ is Gibney Beach (aka: Oppenheimer Beach). This is my favorite beach. It is just past Hawksnest. I first found it by swimming around the point from Hawksnest. When the tide is out – you have a nice wide beach that the coconut trees hang over the beach...

Re: Whew....I feel better already!
Hi Mary Beth
It was a long 8 years since we made it back to STJ and it was soooooooo nice to be back on that rock. So, I know your feeling, but the trip will be so nice. Good luck on the new job.

Re: Airline flight change!! Need opinion
We had a 40 min connection in Miami and were late coming in. We did the old OJ Simpson commercial of running through the airport to get to our connecting flight. We just barely made it and were the last one’s on. It was a very stressful way to start our vacation. Will not do that again. The only goo...

Re: Another US Airways change...ugh
OK – I think I know how to get on STJ without all the hassle. We’re all flying North-to-South to get to STJ. Here’s my thought, fly South-to-North. Leave the good ole USA and fly to somewhere like Argentina – then connect to a direct flight to STT. Boom, you’re on-island. Just kidding you all – we h...

Re: Flight Change Debacle - Call for Suggestions
Something similar happened to us. We had booked 9 months out for our past October trip. Doing the same things – connecting through Miami. Well, AA decided to reschedule our trip to where we were losing almost an entire day. I call AA and got an agent that was “Not too helpful” – so in my most nieces...

Re: Need a Jeep Rental
This past October we rented our Jeep from Amalie Car Rental on STT. Super great folks to work with. They meet you at the airport, then a quick trip (about ¼ mi) from the airport to sign papers, then on your way. We had checked bags, so the drive (me) picked up the jeep – came back to the airport – l...

Re: 10 more days..now what?
Sounds like you have it covered. All I’d do now is put on some Bob Marley and make a batch of Bushwackers or Painkillers – sit back and take it all in.

Re: Long Time No See - TICKER CHECK
Hi Flip-Flop – it has been a long time. FlaSteph and I were just reminiscing the other day and you came up in the conversation. We almost gave you a call that night. What part of Australia this they move to – I was in Adelaide when I was there. Good to see you back. We took a trip back to STJ this p...
