Re: Cruz Bay at Night - safe to walk?

Re: happy fourth of july from EAST stj

We stayed at Gra...

Re: Passports for kids?

We got our kids passport cards- they are less expensive- and are for sea or land travel. You can't use them to fly, but worked perfectly for traveling to the BVI's. :D

Re: On Island Report

Thanks for taking the time to post the report - always enjoy reading them! Did you stay at John Jordan's unit in Grande Bay? Just wondering since Laurie manages it for him, he has a 1 bedroom and studio that can connect to make a 2 bedroom. Laurie is fantastic, and so is John. Thanks for posting and...

Re: Photographer for family beach pictures

We booked Steve Simonsen for June to do our family photos. I thought he was very reasonable, $395.00 for the session and he gives you a CD with the images. I think you can't go wrong with any of the photographers that were listed in a previous post! Good luck!
