St. John

Jost Van Dyke
Tortola
Puerto Rico
Vieques
Culebra
some were only day trips
my favorite is STJ, with JVD a very close second. for different reasons though.
On my wish list:
DR
St.Vincent and the Grenadines
Bequia
Tortola again (only 2 days the first time)
Anguilla
and on, and on...

Oi - let me try and count - but I have to preface by saying this was my parents favorite past time when I was growing up so this isn't all me on my own - but I remember all but one island...
Antigua
Barbados
Grenada
Cancun - not really an island
St. Lucia
St. Kitts
St. Martin
Grand Cayman
Martinique
St. Croix
Saba
Anguilla
Jamaica
Trinidad
Tobago
I think that is it - whew 15 islands...but I only visite Saba and Trinidad on day trips...
I am a lucky woman! Or I have my priorities straight - hehehe

Not NEARLY as many as I would have thought with living on St. Eustatius for 13 years. I guess when you live in the Caribbean full time you prefer to go to Europe and other places for vacation.
-Saba
-St. Maarten/St. Martin (that's a trip to "the city" for us)
-St. Barth's
-Anguilla
-Puerto Rico
-Jamiaca
-St. Kitts
-Landed on Nevis once

Caribtraveler, I have to answer now! 8-)
Bermuda, Grand Bahama, Turks and Caicos, (Provo, North, Middle, Grand Turk) Nassau/Paradise, Caymans, Jaimaca, Cozumel, Isla Mujeres, Abacos, Harbour Island, Exumas, Eleuthera, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Virgin islands (St.Croix, St Thomas, St John, tortola, Virgin Gorda, Jost Van Dyke, Cooper island, Peter island, Anegada) Anguilla, St. Martin, St. Bart's, Antigua, Barbados, St. Vincent (and Bequia, Mustique, Palm, Union, Mayreau, Canouan, tobago Cays, Petit St. Vincent) Grenada, Aruba. i feel like I missed some!
It probably would have been easier to write where i haven't been.
I need to write a book, The Caribbean's most perfect beach.
PS, i'm always happy to give an opinion!

JAGIRL: Question for you about Ziggy Marley. I'm curious to know what is generally thought of him in Jamaica.
I just bought his new CD "Love is my religion" to get me in the mood for our upcoming trip to Jamaica... like I really need something to get me in the mood...
He's certainly not his dad (but then again, who is?!), but his CD is pretty good. There are a couple of songs on it that I just love.
I think it was last year that I bought his brother's CD, Damian Marley. I don't remember being impressed because I listened to it once and it's been sitting there since then.
Is Ziggy really popular in Jamaica? Do they think he's good? Better than Damian? And that no one will ever be like Marley Senior (I can't imagine..)?
Thanks.
