That is hilarious. My daughter and I are the Apple groupies in the family, and all she's been able to talk about is the 4G. Last week, someone stepped on her phone and cracked the screen. At least that's her story. Since she qualified for the upgrade, she now has a new iPhone. We did make her use he...

I love to find sand in my luggage, especially after a long, cold winter. It brings back memories of my favorite island and reminds me I will be returning soon. (Running to check suitcases now!)

I saw Pond Bay from the water in April, and quite honestly, I found it depressing. There was no activity and no landscaping giving it the appearance of an abandoned ghost town. If I had a choice between two equal villas and one didn't directly overlook Pond Bay, that is the one I would pick. However...

We hope to be heading your way for a college tour in a few months. If so, we'll look forward to some tasty vittles and a cold mug of brew from a Mad Fox firkin. Best of luck and much success in your new endeavor.

Haha! I was thinking the same thing. Sounds like a fun week on the island, ladies. I know you'll have a great time.

Your pictures are so good. Thank you for sharing them. I love the conch with his beady little eyes poking out.

Great picture! The blues are gorgeous. Thank you.

Fun! Fun! Fun reading! We stayed at Villa Caribe last year and loved it. Your pictures brought back good memories. I'm envious that you saw an octopus and spotted eagle rays! I've been snorkeling on STJ for several years and have yet to see either. I'm obviously doing something wrong. :? Nice trip r...

Very nice tribute to Mr.B. All of us should be as fortunate to have friends like Mr.B's who set this up. You guys are great.

Looking forward to your updates, Bert! Have fun and enjoy your vacation!

In my opinion, the third bedroom at Splendore is not suitable for an adult couple. It is a room in a small tower, reached by a spiral stairway. There was a pull out couch and a desk. Ok for a teen maybe but I wouldn't expect an adult couple to stay in that room. The two masters are equal. PA Girl, ...

Sangria is perfect on a hot summer day. I had delicious red sangria at Plancha del Mar in April. I could have finished off the entire pitcher by myself. If anyone has their recipe, I'd like to have it.

Thanks for the poem and the beautiful picture to go along with it. I hadn't read that in a long time. Very fitting.

John's pain is gone now, and he's in a better place. Our memories of him will live on even for those of us who never had the pleasure of meeting him in person. My deepest condolences and sympathy to you, Mrs.B. Peace and love to you, your family and friends. RIP, Mr.B. You will be remembered always.

Yes. If you were leaving the Fish Trip, you'd turn left. The Lime Inn is about halfway down the street on the right. You'll see the Pink Papaya gift shop and a tiki-type bar. The restaurant is behind the bar. You can't miss it.
