Maria's by the Sea Road Town

It's quite difficult to find good sushi in the BVI. The BVI Yacht Club has a Sushi Night each Thursday and the sushi is okay. The Dove Restaurant in Road Town has a small sampler selection which is better. So, when reports reached me that Sky Restaurant had employed a Japanese Teppan Yaki and Sushi chef and was producing excellent quality sushi 6 nights a week some friends and I decided to pay a visit to celebrate a birthday ...

... closed. My only recommendation is to bring a doorknob child lock for the front door. If your toddler has figured out how to open a door, you’ll need it. There are also loads children’s toys, books and videos available in the villa for use. There is even a child’s bedroom, with a low bed, which our son just loved. If you have young children, this Villa is a no brainer; it’s the one for you. If you don ...

... I also watched for a while a movie at "Movies Under the Stars Outdoor Theater" which was then followed by simply sitting on my room's balcony and enjoying the activities just below me on land.<br><br>In the evening, Mi and I browsed through the ship's boutiques, buying last minute souvenirs. We also enjoyed going over all the wonderful pictures displayed at the "Gallery" in the hallway which were taken by the ship's photographers during ...

... either have sat inside or outside on the deck. The latter is where I opted to sit, in open air, overlooking the wonderful vistas opening up in front of me under the beautiful blue sky and the warm sun. It was quite relaxing. No motion sickness so far. :) (took my gravol pill).<br><br>We finally arrived at the small island Virgin Gorda where we boarded an open-air safari bus for a short 15 minute drive to the famous Baths. Once we arrived at ...

Dear Blog,<br><br>During the night, the Caribbean Princess made its way towards the island of St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands arriving this morning at 8:00am. We witnessed, from the ship's top deck, the sunrise which was spectacular. <br><br>Today promises be an exciting day as the sun is bright, the sky is blue, the breeze is warm and everything is fantastic. Having had an early breakfast, we were ...

... strict confidentiality agreement. However, the press does know about a major social event that happened on that date in that location. I'd love to plug the resort where we stayed as it was completely divine - amazing infrastructure, location and gastronomy. The hotel grounds were the entire middle section of an island surrounded by three separate bodies of water, and bikes, boats, snorkelling gear and an ipod were available with each room. The restaurant served totally top ...

... filled with charterers. Seemed like a long ride to the airport. We checked in for San Juan, then paid our departure tax. Knowing it was a short walk to Trellis Bay, we went there with the kids, then left them there to have lunch, relax, for an hour or two before their flight. Meanwhile, Paul and I returned to the airport, to discover they were "boarding" our flight 45 minutes early. Knowing that they were really just ...

... went to see what Saba Rock has to offer. For a small rock in the middle of the channel, it has a hotel, garden, a reef with lobsters -- plus a second Moorings base.<br><br>They returned, strategically enough, at cocktail hour. A few minutes before our 1900 reservations, we dinghied ashore for dinner at the BEYC. Turned out they were having "Cavery Night" with buffer-served sides. Actually, everything was quite tasty. We had to have them turn out the light on a serving dish that was ...

... Dominican, you pay only a third on the price for tourists. So you can always try to deal. It is also annoying the fact that they expect you to pay anything, so just be clear with them. In conclusion, people are so nice, and they will just try to help you if you need something. And even if you are in a terrible shape, you have to do the hike to the boiling lake...

... not start yet. Now that we are back to school again we have to concentrate on getting everything done in time. It leaves us with less time to play and that is something to focus on so we can get done earlier in the day. We might start swimming lessons with daddy today and I am looking forward to that. Being back on the boat is really fun but school is the opposite. I enjoyed my break from schoolwork. Thursday October 20, 2005 -Culebra Island, Puerto Rico - Karen Hello ...
