Hi Rick,
I spoke to Ken when we were on island last week and he is doing Thankspigging this year
It will be at Skinny Legs. Enjoy!

I pack 3 oz Neutrogena sunscreen tubes - perfect for carry on, 1 in each ziplock baggie and a 2 oz 3M Ultrathon bug lotion(34.4% deet)and still have room for the other items, shampoo etc.

I am finally getting this down to a science! We leave for the rock on Saturday and are 99.999% packed.

We arrive on the 29th and will try our best to make it to the BB, it would be fun to meet some fellow forumites.

One more positive vote for the seaplane. Hubby & I took a day trip to STX when were were searching for land to purchase. It was pouring rain the morning we were to take off and my sis was freaking out telling us not to go. The flight was delayed for a while, then the sun came out and it was an a...

It was 1992 for us at the Hyatt. That picture of the swimming pool in the travel brochure got us (pre internet). We rented a little 4 x 4 with a manual transmission and drove out to the east end - what a ride. Never thought in a zillion years that we would have built a house on STJ, something we acc...

Check out "A La Mer", it's like having your own resort!

Good morning from the soggy rock! Big wind and rain, whew that was a close call. Much more quiet this morning, no rain right now and much less wind but still very gray. Still got tv, internet, and AC - generator turned on overnight and is on now, so I guess the power is out, I think it went out arou...

Hi forum peeps, checking in from Villa Andara on the East End. Arrived yesterday in gorgeous weather. Lots of howling wind and sideways rain all day but it is quite cozy. Reading books, watching movies. It's kinda like a day at sea on a cruise ship. Gonna take a really long shower after all this rai...

The forum peeps rule, you guys are the best!

Hi there forum friends! My husband and I built Andara, or rather our wonderful builder did :) Building on St John was a fabulous experience and we still can't believe that we pulled off this dream almost 20 years in the making. If you haven't already found it I wrote a building blog last year and it...

We also had a Nitro for 4 adults when we were on island in March - nice car. Have a great trip!

Bob @ Tropical Focus did our photos for Villa Andara and we are very pleased with the quality. We made some very large prints without losing any of the resolution.
They can be seen at http://www.andaravilla.com.

Good luck and treasure your wedding in paradise!

We stay at the Wyndham Newark Airport. They have a reasonable park and fly package and you can leave your car for up to 14 days. Shuttle to the terminal runs every 20 minutes.
Have a great trip.

Try Villa Andara - brand new and seems like it may fit your needs. Is listed by VIVA.

I too will be on STJ in January and tend to freeze in the water. I would recommend either a 0.5 mm or 1.0 mm neoprene long sleeve top. I wear one from Oneil, you can probably find one or something similiar online. A rash guard will give UV protection but no significant thermal protection. Time of ye...
