By this time tomorrow morning we should be in Miami awaiting our connecting flight to St Thomas. My goal is to blog while on island if power and connectivity will allow. As the first entry calls out in the title "It is time to return!" We have been crossing the ocean on our last few trips on new adventures, but now we are excited to come back to the VI. So please join us by following the links as we Return, Relax, and Recharge on St John.

Looking forward to it!
And, while most people don't even know it, the TTOL logo has our 'island in the sun' on the lower left hand corner. For us, it represents St. Maarten/St. Martin. For you, it's St. John. It's not the place, but the FEELING it gives us, that we are truly at peace.

The adventure begun with a 2:20 a.m. alarm. No DC traffic at that time of the morning. Boarding in 20 minutes

We have arrived and everything is beautiful with hints of ugly remaining from the storm. It was a very long day, hence today's entry is called the the longest day
Lots of pics!

Thanks for bringing us along so far! I especially enjoyed the pictures of Sunday. I see you are a Grisham fan also. And a salad with candied walnuts, goat cheese and pear is one of my favorite combinations!! Along with a nice wine, can't be beat!

Truly understand a restaurant must evolve, and the food and service was very good! I, like you, miss the old menu at Lime Inn. Still an excellent choice downtown.

Wow, the whole grilled snapper is gone? That was a killer meal. Still, the food there has always been solid.
