Trip Report May 24th to 31st

This was our sixth time staying on St. John and ninth time to the Virgin Islands. We stayed at the Westin as I used points. We were in a beach front room on the second floor and loved it. We like the Westin, but we do not go to the beach there. It seemed to me that the island is getting a little mor...

Beach Chair purchase

We arrive on Saturday 05/24 later in the afternoon and both hardware stores will already be closed and don't open back up until Tuesday. I want to buy two beach chairs. The drug store at the marketplace does not carry any. Does anyone know where I can buy any? I could rent them from the Westin, but ...

car rental parking in town

We always use Conrad for car rentals because we can park in his lot for free at night when we come into town and never have to look for a space. We will be on the island the last week of May and were wondering what experience anyone else has had with St. John car rental having enough space to park t...

Re: charter boat license notice

I wonder if that is why so many of them leave from the BVIs instead. On two of the trips they told us that we could not go to the US islands. They did not have the proper paperwork.

Re: What is beyond the gas station?

On our last trip it rained all week, so we drove around to any area we had never been to before. The all wheel drive came in handy and we did seem to need it when the road is wet on areas like Jacob's Ladder. I use points and stay at the Westin, so I have done Jacobs latter a bunch. I always rent a ...

Re: New years

If you want a very energized time, go to Foxy's. It was the best time I ever had on new years eve. We were on a chartered boat for the week and parked out by Foxy's early that morning. There were boats as far as you could see. Got to get there early. The party started early and lasted all night. The...

Re: Where to look for Octopuses?

I also saw one at Waterlemon just a few months ago. It was pretty small.

Short report August 21st to 27th

It rained. It rained every day except for Sunday when the sun finally came out in the afternoon. We took that short window and hiked down to Waterlemon and had a good snorkel. It never rained all that hard, so we were out and about exploring the island. We did get some beach time in between the rain...

Re: I have a ticker!

Ok, let's try my ticker again.

I went to the site you got your ticker at. It worked. Actually, the Bbc thing probably made it work. I am not so good with the tech stuff, thanks for the directions on how to do this.
