Hey Northern - we are only two days in and no bugs so far. I always pack repellent and bite sticks - there's a nice breeze which also helps with the bugs.

After a 2 hour flight delay ( which felt like 10 traveling with a 3.5 year old)- it was so nice to be met with a smiling Rachel- we made the 5pm ferry with half a minute to spare. Extra bonus none of the ridiculously grumpy folks from our flight made the ferry. We were settled in enjoying cocktails ...

Freezing rain here in NJ and we have NEVER needed a vacation more (F cancer!)
Can not wait for 9 days on STJ with hubby and our 3 year old - her 4th trip!!!

I cant believe our trip is finally here! Just wondering if anyone on island can let me know how the swells and skeeters are? Thanks in advance and cant wait to there on Wednesday!

Hello fellow travelers!!! I am a few weeks out from our trip and need your thoughts! Is JVD more crowded on Saturday then Tuesday? I have to reserve and I need help making up my mind! I have only been there on a Thursday so I dont know what the weekends are like or is everyday like a weekend? Thank ...

woo hoo I cant wait!!!!! Three generations on the rock!

TGIF!!

Woo Hoo!!

I flew Cape Air to STT from SJU in January and was pleasantly surprised!! I actually arrived early to SJU and was able to get on an earlier flight with no trouble, even though the lady at the counter acted like she was trying to squeeze me on an oversold airbus! Be prepared to tell them how much you...

Yippee!! Here we come for trip #7!!

Flying out of JFK is not so bad, just as long as you have an A.M. flight, all the cars are headed west and you will be headed east. I fly from Newark all the time, but for that big a price difference a car service yo JFK doesn't seem so bad. If is Jet Blue out of JFK I highly doubt you will see the ...

I dont know, that could be up for debate, we were there two weeks ago for the playoff game and there was a pretty strong NYG contingency???? Yankees, definitely another story I would think... Get there early to snag a table!
EnJOY!

ALL the places on STJ are my favorite, but if I had to pick ONE it would be Estate Fortsberg in Coral Bay with Miles Away in Rendevous Point being a close runner up (for a smaller group). See you on January 13th my dear St John!

Oh and Hubby and baby are flying direct from EWR to STT and I am flying in from SJU and are meeting them at the airport, but I will get the notarized letter, especially since baby has a passport. Cant wait for 6 days/5 nights on STJ!!!! Come soon!! Thanks again!!

Thanks so much for all of the great pointers!! We traveled together with her to STJ in April, but at 8 months she definitely needed less entertainment! I rented car seat from Islandbaby and now I will just ship ahead my box of goodies!! Thanks again! This forum is the best! Happy New Year!
