Counting down the days and thanks

After a two year delay, and a lightening quick decision, we are coming back to the island for a couple of weeks in October. Cannot wait. That said, I want express what a pleasure it is to return this message board.

Because we were so busy, I probably would look at the board "maybe" once a month and contribute nothing. So now that we are fired up for our next trip, I just love the fact that this forum is right there ready and waiting. It's like the know-it-all neighbor who's advice you must heed (that's a compliment <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />) I find it indispensable and informative.

SO hats off to the admins, moderators and contributors for keeping it all running, the conversations flowing and keeping it to a manageable roar.

.......and hats off to the members who periodically post their trip reports. Without them many of us would have a hard time getting through our waits between trips.

Have a wonderful return, wabid! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />

Pat--Absolutely! We are nothing without the people who contribute their information regarding the island!

wabid--Enjoy your trip and please write a report upon your return!

I will try, but I think over the years we have become quite boring.

Wake up, head to beach, read, sleep, snorkel -lunch- read, beer, sleep, snorkel - Cocktail - sunset - sleep. Rinse. Repeat.

Don't fret about 'boring' since I think we've already captured the market on that one but after 40 plus years there's only so much 'new stuff' that catches our eye..... <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" />

Sounds like a trip report in the making to me - just add the 'where' and 'what' to your previous post and the report is done. And TY you in advance because most of us will be looking forward to it. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />

Others trip reports keep me going until I can return to SXM. They are a drug!

It's true; when I was planning my trip I had days were I was reading reports back from 2009 or something. At one point I had to tell myself that the majority of the restaurants mentioned might be closed that long ago. But I couldn't stop!

This forum is absolutely indespensible.

David--but it's only as good as people who post current reports from the island! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

Did you forget the "Hint, hint...." at the end of your comment to David? <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" />

Really, people, many of us live for those trip reports...... <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />

No ma'am, that wasn't a HINT at all! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

We promise to report back !!!
