Frozen White Russian
The next morning, St Thomas required me to attend a US immigration check as I’m not a US citizen and it’s US Virgin Island. So I was up at 6.30am at their leisure. Of course, they were a full hour late and totally unapologetic, as every US ...

St. Croix, baby!
St. Croix was cool - I stayed at a friend's house who had stayed with me the year before. I went on a school trip with my marine biology class. It was a lot of fun and although many parts of the caribbean are tourist-ridden, st. croix was mainly just ...

Cheers from St. Thomas
Well, we made it to St. Thomas with really nothing to report, which is strange. The flight was fine, our luggage arrived, the taxi was fine...other than it being absolutely beautiful weather here, we really don't have much to share. We did find our way ...
Yo Dudes, My Name's Joe, Alright...

St. Croix
Went snorkeling at St. Croix. Paul developed a strange reaction to something he stepped on -- started going all cold, and his hands became rigid ... which, with his double-jointedness, was startling. After six hours in hospital, he was diagnosed with ...

Walking the town
I arrived yesterday on Spirit Air from Ft. Lauderdale. The plane was half full so I have a bank of seats to myself. BELIEVE me, that doesn't happen very often anymore. Non-stop from FLL is a breeze. It use to be a hardship to get ...
Lord of the Island Dispatch
