And in january. While we are freezing our little tushed off.

BTW in SJ, if you plan to stay there a few days try a restaurant called Dragonfly in old SJ on Fortaleeza st. I think you'll like it.

Sorry sushi is not for us.

We are staying in Milano, on TA their breakfast is recommended - on the roof. Sounds interesting.

I need to figure out how to reserve the evening shows, never been on a cruise that requires that - Brilliance of the Seas.

While I was eying Celebrity, they sold out the cabins I'd like, and I don't want to risk it to see if anything opens after the final payment. So, RCI.

Nice. I have never been to BVI, or St. Kitts or Guadeloupe. Have a ball, we might have 20 inches of snow in the DMV.

No the DMV is DC, Maryland and Virginia. A few winters ago we got more than 89 inches of snow in the winter with one storm dumping more than 25 inches. When I am snowed in I will think about being on a cruise in warm or hot Caribbean sea.

D, make sure you visit Orient Beach in St. Maartena and you can bare your tushi while the rest of us are freezing it off. IMHO, it's always the people who SHOULDN'T be nude who are naked on the beach, but c'est la vie (or c'est la dreck!)

In Barbados, check out Harrison Caves, it's deep inside the ground and it was part of an all day island tour we took. Thought it was fascinating.

Have fun! Your trip sounds fun. We'd like to go to St Kitt's someday. Tortola is on my list too. I was trying to convince my family to go on another cruise, but I haven't been successful. Please write a trip report when you get back. I'd like to hear you reviews of the ports.
