Seems like a long time ago

Post by AquaGirl »

My husband and I were talking about the Caribbean islands we want to visit and our plans for a trip to the BVIs this year. He loves Peter Island and was talking about what we'll do while there.
me: One of these days, I really want to go back to St John.
husband: We were just there last year in May. Its only been 9 months since we were there! What do you mean "one of these days".
me: Oh...it seems like a looonnnnggg time ago.
I guess this means I am missing St John. Haha!

Give Dominica a try, it is small, with wonderful people, great beaches, a rain forest and a true sense of Caribbean vibe. The USVIs are nice but no longer have the Caribbean feel it had when I lived there in years past.

Great story aquagirl. It just shows how addictive St. John can be for some people. For the last decade we have visited St. John every other year with trips to other locations in between. The time in between seems so long. In fact we will be on island in two weeks and I am already planning our trip for 2019. :D

Having dinner with my sister last night. She asked if we would be around to give her a ride somewhere on a date in August. She assumed we would be home.
I told we would be in St John on that date. She said, " how is that possible, you are just getting back from a cruise a few weeks before, and you were there TWICE last year". To which I said, yes, this will be our 38 th trip, but we will be there in August. You will probably have to take a cab!

Great story Aquagirl, as I'm leaving STJ I'm trying to figure out how and when I can get back and how soon. I'm hoping one day I can stay and call it home.
Soarin' with the eagles all week long, and this is all that we've learned about living - VACATION!
