We had a BLAST!! We had to get up at 4am to catch our 6am flight out of New Orleans. It wasn't too bad until I felt like I was going to pass out waiting to get through security and had that feeling several times more before we finally got to our gate and were able to sit down. Our hopes of Kennedy Jane staying asleep were quickly dashed before we ever got out of the hotel. Our flights were easy and we made it to St Thomas. There we had to hop a cab to the ferry dock and take a ferry to St John. Everything had gone smoothly until we got to St John to pick-up our rental car and they had already left for the day. It took us 45min to get that situation resolved and get in our rental car headed for the villa.
After traveling some pretty crazy roads we finally got to our villa which was beautiful, except the a/c throughout was not so, it was all screened windows and open doors with a small wall a/c unit in the rooms. We were all a bit worried that we were going to be hot but it ended up being just fine, just a bit sticky from the humidity. Here is a picture of the villa from the deck of the pool:

The stay on St John was great, Sunday we went to Jost Van Dyke, a British VI and it was beautiful.

Tuesday we went to St Thomas to shop to discover and island wide power outage. Mom, Ali, Kennedy Jane and I checked into the Westin b/c they were running on generators, however, at dinner their generators over-loaded and power went out. They got it restored only to have it go out around 1am and stay off for about 3 hrs.

The rest of the trip went great and we were NOT ready to come home!!
