A Long Weekend in St. John

I need to remember how great it is to head out to St. John for a long weekend. All it takes is leaving mid-afternoon Thursday, then coming back late Sunday to make months of work and aggravation disappear. The weather was fantastic as usual (although we did experience a Saturday afternoon shower), the food was excellent (mmmm…. roti from Sogo’s), the accommodations at Gallows Point were just as fantastic as I remembered from having stayed there before and best of all, the whole thing was easy.

Unfortunately, there was getting stuck as usual in Puerto Rico for a night because the airport there has simply the worst service of any I’ve ever been to… ever! But we did manage to make the most of a bad situation and enjoy a night in Old San Juan. I can’t wait until Jet Blue starts flying directly from New York to St. Thomas (something that should be starting soon). Then I can finally say goodbye to going through San Juan and American Eagle.

I should remember to frequent St. John and my new favorite beach!
