Good answers...not much to add except....don't screw around, you're spending a lot to get there from the northwest and 10 days in STJ aren't cheap. Get an SUV so you can get the most out of your vacation, and better start looking quickly, there are a limited amount available. This part is a no brain...

2 quick questions.....when is your trip scheduled, and did they try to re-route you through Philly?

The reason I ask, is I've never seen zero US Air flights out of STT on a Saturday, that's a little strange.....

Great pics...missed the dolphins there, but got the manta. The dolphins for sure had to be difficult to catch, they move a lot quicker.

Ha! No problem, we're bitter now also as we're on the plane in STT!

Yes, they ran out of the dang cups, we were hoping to bring some more home, but I'm not complaining! Guess we just HAVE to go back..... :)

Wow, this is exactly as I would have expected. Every time we go to Trunk, those Park Rangers checking our passes at the parking lot look like they're ready to just jump through that window and get down to business with those terrible thugs! I'm sure the guy who caught them said, "go ahead, make...

Well this continues to get amusing. Bad snorkel day today, high surf last two days beat up the sand, water was cloudy. We ended at Francis this morning, about noon I take a dip in the water. While I'm doing the crawl (w/o goggles on, but eyes open) out to the bouy.....I'm like halfway out all by my ...
