We have been visiting St. John since the mid 90s and in 2013 decided to try the BVI's instead. STJ was becoming too busy for us, LOL; we are small town people and not much into night life, prefer quieter scenes. In 2013 we stayed 3 nights each on VG and Jost and we stayed 4 nights each last year. We...

Wow, that was very very nice! Thank you so much for sharing. My coworker is thinking of going to STJ. I'll definitely show him this tomorrow

LOVE this ladies trip!!! I'm due with our first child (Conner Jack) in a WEEK, so no annual August trip for us this year. But we'll be back next year for our annual two weeks...with Conner!! Cannot wait!!! Reading all y'alls trip reports will help me through the next year until we're back! Great na...

Hi there, I did a girls get away with a friend 2 years ago to Charleston. We stayed at the Fulton Lane Inn http://www.fultonlaneinn.com/ We thought the location was great for walking since we did not rent a car. It was easy getting around on foot, a number of restaurants, shopping, the waterfront, t...

Thank you SO much for posting your reports and photos. Always a pleasure to read. I'm sure you fit in very well with the STT resort people, but your description of it was pretty amusing :) We were down in the BVI's in November when Buffalo got the MASSIVE 6-7 foot snowfall and were able to lengthen ...

Beautiful photos! Love the snowball dog.

7 degrees? That's a heat wave for NY, where are you? Minus 9 here this morning driving in to work west of Buffalo. And more snow projected to fall this weekend too!

We have become BVI converts, though STJ still holds a place in my heart (see my latest TR from last week). VG is much much quieter. When we have gone we have taken the ferry directly from STT TO VG, I'm guessing on a Tuesday you would need to connect in Tortola. But that's probably not too difficult...

Toni I met you years ago. at one of Bills parties. Maybe we will be able to catch up with you guy some time! 8) Pam and John Hey Pam, I do remember that; it was one of the rare times we went down during Thanksgiving. Maybe I'll get another Thanksgiving trip in sometime! :) Per Minde...." I can...

I'm sorry to say the trip ended on Sunday for Minde and Monday for me :( we both had to get back to work. Since Minde rented on STT we went back on an early car barge and drove to Charlotte Amalie where I had a room reserved at the Windward Passage. http://i58.tinypic.com/19uomh.jpg Husband and I ha...

OMG, that sounds so frightening! And yes, I totally get the thought process
Speedy recovery to him.

Today's Mindes birthday, how cool is that to celebrate your birthday on the island you love??? :D We grabbed sandwiches at North Shore Deli again, then made our way to take photos on the North Shore. Minde took me to Gibney where I hadn't been and it is beautiful. Got some great photos. http://i58.t...

Forum member Minde and I flew down Tuesday (luckily not monday since the buffalo airport was snowed in that day!) it was a girls trip, leaving the husbands behind. We have both been a number of times with spouses. First flight uneventful, second flight Minde goes to board and is stopped with a "...

Ok, what does it say about me that I am here on St. John with my forum friend Minde and I've left my husband home in western NY where he messages me that they got another 8-10 inches of snow last night?

My husband is a no see um magnet too. I have a picture of his foot once where it looks like he has measles he had so many bites. That was the trip too where he slid down wet stairs at a villa and had a big black/blue swelling on his foot so it makes for an interesting photo :( I remember getting rea...

Minde and I are arriving next week for our first "just girls" trip. (Side note, we met via this forum, thank you Anthony! :D ) How's the mosquito situation? I haven't been paying attention to the amount of rain St. John has been receiving. Husband and I came down to the BVIs in November af...
