BillK brought it up but I thought I would do the formal post:
How long to your next trip to St. Barts and long will you be there?

Well your post reminded me that I should check with Continental to see what the FF situation will be next summer. So today I got set up with 7/23/04 - 8/2/04. Too long off to count the days, but now at least it seems closer. Trip # 3 will be 10 days, 3 more then last year. Hopefully, some of you guys on the board will be there that week and we can meet up. (villa not determined yet)

Brendan...that morning Continental flight out of EWR for FF tickets was slim pickings this time around...I had to make quite a few concessions on my June dates...did you find it that way too?

Well, when I called up they didn't have the dates I wanted, so she just did a random search and came up with these dates. I really wanted a 10 day trip around 2 weekends, instead of the usual weekday to weekday. Someone could have been holding the dates and maybe backed out btw the time we both called up. Its really a crap shoot when you use FF miles, no matter how early you call. I have to fly first class home to make it work, but it worked out to only another 12,000 miles per person.

Digger ! How do you feel about adopting a 48 year old woman ? Please adopt me and take me with you every time you go to St. Barts. I'll be good. Promise ! I'll only speak when spoken to. Won't talk with my mouth full. And I promise not to stare at nude ladies throwing/catching tennis balls on the beach...LOL !! I'll be the perfect adopted daughter....

Hey ! Bro'!! I was tellin' you the truth and then this post started I just had to sit in my office with a calendar and count. Glad I did. Not as long away as I thought. Thanks for your other tip, but Roger went ahead and booked the Guadeloupe link. By the way, still waiting for you to land on Toronto Island Airport !!! There's a room at the Best residence waiting for you....

The morning I suggested this it was 2 degrees Celsius (38 F) and I was definitely counting the days (92 for 32 days) but for the next 5 days the forecast is 25C (77 F) and sunny so I'll start counting again after Thanksgiving (Canadian) Thats Columbus Day (American)

DebTor, Your qualifications seem more than adequate. I'm sure your pressence would greatly enhance my trip. Have you been known to try a Ti Punch?

Funny you should mention that. I recall, on my last trip to St. Barts in February, a rather charming gentlman introducing me to Ti Punch. I became rather partial to it if I recall !

Will arrive on January 13th and stay until February 3rd. Getting married on the island on the 24th! Second trip (first was last January - Le Manoir - for 2 weeks) and this time we are renting Villa Beau Bijou. When we left last Jan and I was crying my eyes out because we had to leave, I knew we would someday be back but had no idea that one year later we'd be back to get married there.. Pretty cool, I must say. A marriage celebration in paradise with about 50 of our nearest and dearest there too! Marina
