Re: First visit planned for April 21-28!

I would skip the trip to the Baths on your first trip, too long a trip. Enjoy a relaxing stay on STJ. More than enough to do on STJ without running out of things to do. Like going to Maho Bay everyday. I NEVER tire of that. Plan a surprise in villa gourmet dinner for your new bride. There are privat...

Apple EyeTV and Roku

I finally got around to hooking up EyeTV to a Mac Mini we have on the main tv in the house. It's amazing how simple it was to plug in, load the software, and setup the channels and TV Guide. The quality and simplicity of Apple products amaze me. We use a digital TV antenna, no cable or satellite. Th...

Re: Travelingwith Kids

Cafe Roma, Banana Deck, Ronnie's Pizza are a few that come to my mind. Cafe Roma has great food for everyone.

During the winter months, the National Park Service on STJ uses 'Bay Hosts' to be their greeters in each Park bay. Stints as a Bay Host can last up to several months allowing the hosts to stay on a Park mooring at no charge in exchange for greeting overnighters with a copy of Park rules and regs and...

A friendly reminder that AA is in bankruptcy. I read this article today about large brands predicted to disappear this year. Not always accurate in predictions, but worth considering when buying a ticket far in advance. http://www.foxbusiness.com/industries/2012/06/21/ten-brands-that-will-disappear-...

Yes you can, like you said, if there is an open space. Best choices are the lots by the tennis courts on both sides. One mentioned before is the newer one and largest, and the other is in front of the giant water tank at the Bureau of Motor Vehicles lot. Parking at Mongoose Junction is for patrons t...

I have not tried their food yet. I just wanted to comment on Esther's husband Jerry. One of the nicest men I have met. Super kind people.
