Re: Looking for help facing end stage cancer

Dear Iprof - I am not a medical professional, but would first like to offer my sympathy to you and your friend. How sad for such a young person to face this diagnosis. Has she gotten a second opinion? I worked at Duke University Medical Center for 27 years, and can tell you that the Preston Robert T...

Oh silly me - I misinterpreted your ticker - I thought it meant you'd been back for 5 days :roll:

Re: Can't shut this down

:D Beautiful Mary Beth! Since you've been home now for 4 days, I assume the shutdown of the beaches didn't affect you terribly much - I hope that is the case, and that you had a wonderful time :D Where did you stay this time?

Re: Caneel Public Beach - Public Unwelcome

Hi Jim - I agree! Although we usually did bring a cooler (did not know about the no cooler rule-we always came by taxi, so never were advised at the gate), we ALWAYS had lunch at Caneel, and then before leaving always had a farewell frozen drink at the bar! Caneel has significant sentimental connect...

Re: Caneel Public Beach - Public Unwelcome

I don't think it was a "cooler issue". It definitely was a "chair" issue. BTW, I was not aware of the no cooler rule...been there many, many times with a cooler! Hope the new management will not be so restrictive :)

Caneel Public Beach - Public Unwelcome

Just returned from a wonderful two week trip to St. John. Stayed at Gallows Point Resort (been there for at least the last 10 years) - wonderful as always. During the first week, my friend and I went to Caneel, brought our bag chairs, beverages, snorkel equipment and had a lovely day at the far end ...

Re: Zozo's

Hmm is right Pia...I wonder if this is related to the fact that they are closing on July 27 and not re-opening till October 1?? :? Seems very curious that they are closing so early. I always come to SJ in August and have at least a couple of dinners there, so was deeply disappointed to know that it ...

Re: Zozo's summer schedule

Hi all - just called and spoke to Ben...he said not 100% sure on the closing, but it's most likely their last day will be July 27. Luckily, my credit card will be adjusted! :)

MBW - are you going back for your 9/30 anniversary? Sure hope so :D

Re: Zozo's summer schedule

Oh no! What a bummer...I recently called there and got a gift certificate for a friend who will be there with me Aug 11-Aug 25!! They never mentioned that they would be closed during that time...I even mentioned the dates :? Thanks Mary Beth for the heads up on this...I am really disappointed. Alway...

Speaking of taking food...

This reminds me of my trip last year. I had purchased 3 or 4 good size blocks of gourmet cheeses to take for snacks during the week. Going through airport security I had a problem with the cheeses. Security said cheese is considered a "gel" :roll: I got swabbed with the little devise, the ...
