We are looking at doing a clockwise route. Thinking about JVD, Guana, Scrub, Anegada (2 nights), Leverick (2 nights), Cooper, Norman, with a flex night.

We will be flying a TTOL flag. Party of 10. 4 "old folks" with 5 who just graduated from college and one current college student.

Mayjong- step by and say hello

The wait is over. On the red-eye from LAX to Miami somewhere over Arizona. We will be arriving in Miami and then on to STT. Kevin will be helping us for the first time and spending Thursday night on Celavie at BVIYC.

Big group and none of us can sleep. Too pumped up for this trip.

I'm under 2 weeks. Starting to get the "Lets get this show on the road" feeling. I have plenty to do at work to keep me busy. I never liked to wish time away but.....
We are into STT as well after multiple American/Seaborne changes made EIS not a good routing. We opted to fly Air Sunshine to EIS rather than doing the ferry roulette.

Checking in. We are at the dock at Scrub and will be leaving shortly for Anegada for two nights. The kids are looking forward to seeing Sammy at ARH again. Anyone going to be there?

So far we have spent the night at JVD-Great Harbor, White Bay-Guana, and Scrub last night.

Jellies at Muskmellon Bay (Guana) too thick to snorkel. Monkey point had fewer jellies, not really a problem.
