Trip report...of sorts

We were on island December 28 through January 7. Our group consisted of my wife, Marcia, me, and our four kids, ranging in age from 18-23. Marsh and I have been to STJ many times. This was the third visit for our kids. Given that the days of our trip kind of bleed together, I’ll just give you the ru...

Bars with NFL Ticket?

Bears play the Packers this Sunday for the division title. I'm not sure if we will be able to get the game at our villa. Are there any bars on island that have the NFL Ticket?

Re: New Year's Eve Ideas?

That's a good idea. Motu opened since we last were on island so we definitely need to check it out. If last vacation is any indication, I suspect that the kids will be joining the party. Last year over New Year's we were staying at an AI in Mexico. We did family tequila shots at midnight. It was a s...

New Year's Eve Ideas?

We'll be on island with our four kids (ages 18-23) for New Year's Eve. We were planning on spending the evening/night in Cruz Bay, probably end up at the Beach Bar for midnight. Any other suggestions?

Re: Most Overrated / Most Underrated

Underrated: The food at the Beach Bar. The steak sandwich is a great value and the Tuna Down now is a winner (caveat...it has been awhile since we have been there...hope it hasn't changed too much.)

Re: Where IS everybody???

I've been here pretty much since the beginning and can't recall the "forum brawl of 2008." It might be because there used to be a bunch of brawls back then and they all have blended together.

Impressive response. Extra credit for the Animal House riff.

Still overrated.

Overrated Skinny's (no view, so-so burgers) Woody's (prefer not to stand in the street; too many "woo" girls) Joe's BBQ (rude at times, uses Open Pit BBQ sauce) snorkeling (it kind of freaks me out) Rhumblines (we have so many good places like it at home, it can't compare) Vie's (greasy c...

Re: Where IS everybody???

There might be a "clique" feel because a lot of us came to this forum from the old AOL forum. So, we already "knew" each other before coming here.

Re: ONE meal in St. John

I agree with iheartsj...Sogo's. It is unlike anything we can get at home. At home, we have Asian that makes Rhumblines look silly. Banana Deck, while fun, can be found anywhere, etc. Try to think of one restaurant on STJ that you can't find at home...Sogo's. (We've never been to P and P's but I'd gu...

Re: How is high season different?

"The people that visit at Christmas are very wealthy."

Well, on the plus side, Marsh, it turns out that we are rich. That's some positive news, right?
