Re: Some thoughts on groceries and dining

Some thoughts on groceries and dining

As I mentioned in my last post we did not hit any new dining spots this time around. But I will share thoughts on our favorites. As for grocery, the St. John market seems to have stepped up their game. The meat looked decent although we didn't buy any. STJ market was our first stop on island after g...

951 days since my last visit to STJ

Sounds like a confession, doesn't it? Well it is the truth. When we left STJ in Oct 2013 we had no intention of staying away so long but life happens. I was laid off from my job of 29 years in April 2014 so that kind of resets your life playbook. Got a new job in Jan 2015 but when you start all over...

Re: 8:00 ferry for a 12:30 flight?

Personally for a flight on AA I would be on the 9am ferry for a 12:30pm flight IF I had carry on only and had checked in on line but if checking luggage on a AA flight I would take the the 8am (I hate those flights departing on the half hour as you need to leave 1 hour earlier) but (personally) sti...

Re: Car rental companies demanding letter from insurance com

We arrived yesterday and got our car at STJ rentals. As on past trips, Cynthia looked at my credit card and said no extra insurance needed for you. The couple next to us did not have that option so they had to take a$10 or $20 per day option.

My cc is Barclays travel card.

Was your VIP Mario Batali? I know he was there recently but not sure if your travel crossed paths.
