Re: 5 couples next year...villa help please

We have stayed at Gull Cottage at least 3 times in the past, and would stay there again except that we need a 4th bedroom. Loved the proximity to Cruz Bay and the Westin.

Took my 24 can polar bear 3 weeks ago loaded with frozen meat, brought it back loaded with "stuff". Delta had no problems with it.

Reef Bay hike with kid

We are leaving tomorrow for St John. Grandsons ages 5 and 2 1/2 will be coming with us. Do you think the guided Reef Bay Hike with the boat return would be possible for that age group? Thanks for any advice.

Passports for kids?

Do kids under age 6 need a passport to travel to BVI's for the day? We were thinking of taking the ferry to Virgin Gorda for the day. Is a copy of birth certificate adequate or is a passport needed? Thanks

RX mask

I was looking for a Rx mask for my next trip, have tried contacts but just can't wear them. Went to a local dive shop and the masks they had were very expensive. Has anyone bought them on-line with good results? Thanks for your help

Sunscreen

Trip insurance

We will be traveling in Late April to St. John. The will be 7 of us including 2 kids, all in relatively good health. Do you feel trip insurance is a good idea or an unneeded expense at that time of year?
