I was born on St. Thomas in 1979. Wow, how things have changed. The world population keeps growing, but the number of islands stays the same... Last year I stood in LINE for an hour to take a group of first timers through The Baths. I love the VI's but am exploring more remote destinations in order to avoid the crowds.

I've experienced the attitude of many businesses in the VI's decline as they adjust to serving crowds and dealing with the types of people that come with them. One Love, unfortunately, was one of them.
