Death Certificates

Unfortunately your friend is probably at the mercy of the Coroner. It takes us sometimes up to 2 months to get a death certificate completed by the Coroner and some physicians. They don't really understand the hold up to the family. It is unfortunate with all that a family is all ready going through...

I would do 2 weeks on STT

:) We love STT. There is a lot of history to explore. You can tour the Haagensen House and Ft. Christian. Lots of good restaurants there. You can also easily book a ferry ride to some of the BVI and tour them at your leisure. We have toured the BVI both by ferry and by a speed boat trip. Had fun on ...

Old Stone Farmhouse

We love OSF. Yummy! Great wine selection. Used to have some wonderful sushi specials and a dessert special sampler that is wonderful.

New Horizons

You may want to talk to someone at New Horizons to make sure of the itenerary. The last time I lookes they did not sail to BVI they had a power boat that took you there but they did do a St. John snorkle sail and a dinner cruise.

Funny I have found St. John to be more noisy than St. Thomas. We stayed one year on St. John and have never been back due to the power boat racer at 2am in the bay area revving his engine. Although the Greenhouse is good just go for the drinks. Lunch at Gladys is a must. Also you can tour Bluebeard'...

Bluebeard's Castle is not really a castle but you can spend the night there or at Blackbeards both have rooms. Bluebeards is in Charlotte Amalie not as close to the ferry and Blackbeards is up the hill from the ferry dock with a wonderful restaurant.

Blue Beard's Beach Club is a great place to go with kids. It is smaller than most of the resorts on St. Thomas. There are kitchens in the units so you can breakfast there and do other meals away. Also it is very quiet, unlike the place we stayed in St. John where we were up all night listening to so...

Try Hotel 1829 also

The Hotel 1829 is nice and within walking distance to the shops in Charlotte Amalie.

Old Stone Farmhouse

I don't know how to add pins either but the Old Stone Farmhouse Restaurant is at the entrance to Mahogany Run Golf Course. A little upscale but wonderful food. :wink:

Bracelets

I have had one of mine for 10 years and the other for 5 years. Neither have ever tarnished. I don't clean with special cloth or store in any special place. I wear mine almost all the time. I even wear in the shower. They both look almost new except for changing shape due to extensive wear. I would s...

Try it at 40!

I will not fault you for complaining. I was not one of those pregnant people who just "loved every moment of being pregnant- including the throwing up!" (Yes a quote from someone) Of course I went through 2 July's pregnant in the south! I love my babies well worth it but I agree it wasn't ...

There a good restaurants there and lots to do. Grayton Beach is my preference. It is a little more sleepy but a...

Budgets has always been good to us

We have used Budget about 6 times now with no real issues. We did get a car once that seemed to be having some transmission issues. We noticed before we got out of the airport area good. We simply took it back and they gave us another car that ended up being an upgrade. Plus I don't know if they sti...
