We did the Dolphin Shuttle last week and I would definitely give them a thumbs up. They can get you over there mid week and you can beat the weekend crowds at Jost. We had a great time with them.

Hi California Girl,

We had dinner at Ms. Lucy's last week. Not only is it open but it was the best meal we had on the island.

By the way, your suggestion of the mosquito racket was a BIG BIG hit with my husband. It's his new favorite thing and will be packed for all future vacations.

Hi Pickle, We just got back from St. John last night. We almost cancelled this trip due to ear problems that I have been having similar to yours for the last four months. I was afraid of problems on the plane but had none when using the Sudaphed (not PE). There is a big difference between the two. A...

Huray!!!!! Your there! We are leaving today. Thanks for the shot. I'm betting we'll run into you somewhere or other!

Really beautiful!

Thanks!

Hi Lex, We will be in St. John in a couple of days and have a trip planned this winter to Virgin Gorda and Anegada so your trip report was a wonderful to read. I totally get the "perfect moment" part and hopefully some of those will pop up on these next few trips. I particularly enjoyed yo...

Great pictures and reporting Augie!

Thanks so much.

Now that I know what you look like bug, I'll have a better shot of spotting SOTB!

OH MY GOD! LAUGHING!

Well now of course I have to have one of these but after a whole week together with the husband, I can see us using it as instruments of torture when we start to annoy each other!

Maybe we have to buy two!

Thanks California Girl. Totally love it!

I'll be on the lookout!

I will be on the island the same time as SOTB and I can see myself now going up to groups of three women or more and asking them if they are the six on the beach group bunch. Your not wearing t-shirts or anything are you so I won't have to embarrass myself?

What is a "Mosquito Zapper Raquet"?

It sounds too funny! How does it work? Does it attract mosquitoes or do you have to swat at them like a fly swatter? I'm clueless but intriqued!!!!

With what the weather has been looking like lately it seems like next week we are going to need all the help we can get.

Are the patches natural? What's in them?

Loved Liam's Aunts pictures and trip reports. She mentions bug patches she bought at St. John's Spice. Can someone tell me more about these?

We are planning to rent a dinghy in a few weeks and looking at he websites for these two places I can see that Calipso dinghys have a steering wheel and seats but are also more expensive than Noah's Little Arks.

Has anyone had experience with both and do you think its worth spending the extra money?
