Um, can do without all the "if I were you", no offense............. I'm limited on days (2 weeks), have lots of people to visit in FLL and MIA, but want to visit the VI. I thought the VI people were "friendly"???? Sorry it is so offensive down there with lots of suggestions without reading a detailed question........ guess we will just go to Key West because we love it there and EVERYONE is friendly and have other friends there!

Again, to get to my point, IT WAS STORING LUGGAGE IN FLORIDA! DO NOT TRY TO DICTATE MY TRIP! MY TRIP IS PLANNED AND WE HAVE PLENTY OF TIME AND MONEY!!! DO YOU THINK MY I.Q. IS BELOW 56 ASKING IF I KNOW HOW FAR THE VI IS FROM FLA??? DUH??? DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY TIMES I WENT FROM THE MIDEWEST TO HAWAII????

I wrote the question for an ANSWER, and I made it detailed to be sure there would be a GOOD answer. Not someone, whoever you are, asking an American if I know how far the trip is from Miami to STT or STX.

Sorry for the rant, but some of you "experts" need to chill out and stop making HIGH LEVEL BIZ EXECS THAT TRAVEL ALL THE TIME look like Dbags............. in short, your answer was a "know it all answer", BUT YOU DID NOT ANSWER THE QUESTION SO YOU DO NOT KNOW!

I thought only travel forums from NY answered questions like this..... I guess the VI is getting a lot of New Yorkers moving in............ so I am MOVING ON! KEY WEST FOR ME INSTEAD OF THE VI!

THANKS FOR THE GREAT KNOW IT ALL RESPONSES! thinking

These are great answers--thank you! Exactly the kind of information I was hoping for.

Like I said, it was a silly bias. Despite the good snorkeling I'd heard about, I'd also heard about the preponderance of "Trustafarians" and how Americans were moving in and buying up land and making it difficult, if not impossible for the local islanders to own their own homes/properties. Well, okay, that's not such a silly bias now that I think of it. The silly part of the bias is that when I travel I want to leave US soil and use my passport, and while I'm sure that St. John has a fine West Indian culture, I had always preferred to experience West Indian culture on other islands.

Woo-hoo! Let's book a birthday party!

“ Skyride to Paradise Point is a rip-off and unsafe! ”

Was at Skyride to Paradise Point and there is rust on the tram. Some animals in the zoo had no water. The bird show you read about is no more. Children can put their fingers in the unattended animal cages. Floor boards on nature trail/zoo are loose, rotten and have holes in the - DANGEROUS. Stay in town!!! Oh, the food is horrible, overpriced and the drinks approach $10 - way too expensive.
