LOL. Maybe, just maybe, it was too low to the ground originally and this was a modification and not a repair. Thus the 5% enginering cost adjustment.

Destiny, Nice pics. The Mandahal Market is a great little Market. We use to stay at Magens Point Resort and frequently visited the market. A real local flavor to the place and nice folks to boot.

Nicole, my wife and I snorkel alot and useually use the snorkel vests. They are light weight and lay flat in luggage takeing no more room than a T shirt. The vests got a bad rap here due to the Cruise ship folks using them. As far as I am concerned it is foolish to take a chance with your life for s...

Hey RICKG, I took a look at your photo link, nice shots and have a question. Picture #2 of 70. Is that JORGE behind your Wife and daughter? If so did you know him then or just a coincidence. May not even be him but does look like, to me anyway..

Used the regular Budget rental on line site and STT for location. Instant response and no problem. Pick up location rules apply and last I used Budget no problem going to STJ. I always book the car on line and have never had a problem with Budget or Avis, as far as taking the car over goes.

Now I know, for the most part, all you guys while in Paradise, hang on STJ but I thought I'd add that we have had Buswackers all over STJ and STT. My wife now considers herself somewhat of an officinado and she votes a hands down for Paradise Point on STT for the best Bushwacker. All that comes home...

snorkelqueen, Just a thought but you should make certain to mention to the Boat crew that you wish to catch and release only. Some and likely most of these guys count on the fish, Tuna Mahi or whatever as part of thier income and meals. Same holds true if you should want to keep all the fish you boa...

I think Jorge is adjusting to being a Poperotzy (?) of sorts or at least it sounds that way. I think his dilema is posting a fun report without invading someones privacy who would not post about themselves what it is he may post. An interesting dilema. Think about it for a minute and imagine you and...

Just a word of caution, This Feb. while on a boat trip to the Baths I was talking with the Captain, a long time Islander, and amongst other things we were talking about fish. He advised that they don't eat the "local" fish that feed on the reefs as they have some parasite that is poionous ...

Bring Back some of the GOOD Stuff

Just finished reading the post about the Frank Banko article and it reminded me of a topic I wanted to throw out there. I don't know how many of you guys feel this way but, I love the Islands for a lot of reasons one of which are the people and the common courtesies they practise, if you give them t...
