St. John Trip Report 10/25 - 11/3/12

Thanks for the report - that villa looks amazing. Could you actually get into the ocean from the villa, or were the rocks too steep?

There was a line that was attached to the rocks that I would guess you could hold on to, to go down into the water but I couldn't imagine how you would get back in? We didn't try it. Other then that we couldn't find a clear easy way into the water. The rocks were too high to get in. The villa was amazing!

Thank you!
-Susan

That's what I figured - it looked pretty steep from the pictures. Thanks! Will definitely add it to my list of places to consider. Great pics!

Really enjoyed going along with you to St. John. Haven't been there in a while as we've been going to Turks & Caicos, but your lovely photos and detailed trip report just might call us back.

White Bay remains one of our best memories of the area so that was great to see. Also the many new bars & restaurants since we were there last. BTW, is Morgan's Mango still there near the ferry dock?

I particilarly like the format with the photos between the text and would be interested in using it in the future. Any hints on how to do so?

TPAYT,
Morgan's Mango is still in Mongoose Junction near Margarita Phil's. We usually try and get there once during our stay but this time we didn't. The blog itself is set up where you enter in the photos and text yourself and then they format it.

Thank you,
Susan
