Glad you had a great time and even happier that you stopped posting from there. Nothing like being taunted from warm, sunny, tropical islands.

I concur that it is a wonderful place to go. Did you do the Jeep Tour around the island?

BRAGGART!!! ;D
Glad you had a great trip. I feel the same way about sr. Croix... Except I don't want everyone to go because I don't want it to turn all touristy like st. Thomas and st, john.
I want to see photos!

I concur that it is a wonderful place to go. Did you do the Jeep Tour around the island? We did a half day tour (gold mill ruins, natural bridge remains/new baby bridge, and the natural pool). It was awesome! We also kayaked to Mangel Halto reef to snorkel, took a walk to Malmok beach (will snorkel there next time, it was a picture taking walk), and we did a sunset cruise on the Octopus. And of course drank on the beach!

I'm already looking into planning a trip back in two years. Our accomodations were a wedding present so we did save a bunch of money on that, but I found dinners out no worse than a decent meal in Philly. But it can get expensive if you let it.

When I went 20 or so years ago it was one of the less expensive tropical vacations. I think at that time Bermuda was the priciest.

I had never been to Aruba but heard from friends that having a meal there is like...better not eat at all.

I've not been personally. My favorite was Hopetown Bahamas. Very laid back & simple, not touristy at all.

Really stupid question I know but do they have anything that is not seafood down there? Born and raised in New England and absolutely despise seafood. I would love to go someday after DH kicks the bucket. My mom went to the Netherland Antilles and absolutely loved it. The water is so gorgeous.

Italian, pizza, Japanese, Chinese, burgers, sandwiches, fruit, vegetables, French, American fast food, vegetarian/vegan, beef, chicken, hot dogs, cheese, BBQ, Dutch, Argentine, steak. Really, any food you could find anywhere else.
