I flew on JetBlue healthy but caught the flu on my flight and was sick as a dog for over a week. So no trip report because I did not do much and when I finally started feeling better it was time to go home. I guess that is my trip report. LOL

Sorry to hear that you were sick. Having had some issues while on island myself, it really stinks to be sick on vacation.

Wendy,

So sorry to learn about your vacation experience. I can’t think of anything much worse than being sick and not enjoying a St. Martin. However.......

John and I once booked a post-Christmas into the New Year week tent camping trip on St. John. Yes, I said tents.....believe it or not, something I’d always wanted to do.

We arrived and all was good and were able to completely enjoy our arrival day and first night but the following morning I woke up with a sore throat and I continued going down hill to the point I was so sick I finally had to give in and go to the clinic there. Great doctor who prescribed meds and sent me back to my tent. What he prescribed was a Z pack and while I wont go into the gory details I will share that beyond making me sleep through most of the next three days, our tent was two flights of steps for a total of thirteen stairs and three side walks from the nearest bath house....... details I will never forget!

John loved St. John. Me? Not so much! jester jester Those airplanes will get you, for sure.

I sincerely hope you were able to enjoy some of your trip and you are already planning the next one.

Thanks for your well wishes. I am back in good health now. Pat camping would have run me ragged if I was sick in a tent. Thanks for making me realize it could have been worse! LOL
