Refrigerator stocking and return to this forum
Posted: Sat Jan 27, 2018 3:29 pm
Hi All, After a long (4-5 years) absence since I have been on this site, thought I would jump back on after all the horrible things that happened to St. John last fall. I am so pleased to read about the strong recovery efforts but know there is still a lot to be done. (I have been helping in a small way with a couple organizations but know things take time.) This will be our 9th trip, and I really hope that the island and people have recovered and doing great.
My travel plans have been put on hold since last fall. We will arrive in St John for my next trip around mid May. I am going to stay in Gallows Pointe. This time (like I have done when I stayed in several villas) I plan on having the Frig stocked so I don't have to immediately hit Star Market. In fact for the first time, plan on picking up the rental a few days AFTER I arrive. We'll see if I like that. Normally, I like the independence of going anywhere anytime I want.
I am looking for suggestions on who can provide provisions (specifically to Gallows Pointe). I have used Kati Lady in the past, but (at least by her web site) she appears to be focused on Weddings rather than provisioning. I know Christy's does it and have their grocery list. Seems pretty straight forward...I would like opinions of that service if anyone has any.
I am probably going to rent a boat, but may opt for a dingy instead. Haven't rented a dingy before, and it seems that Naughty Nymph isn't advertising anymore. Did they go out of service? Any suggestions on the best dingy rental company?
Oh, realize I haven't said "hi" to all the people here. Hi. Use to be fairly active on this site, and hope all my web acquaintances are still here and doing good.
