I havent done any research yet on the islands we are going to, so couldyou tell me what is at Meghans Bay please. Also Trunk Bay is that the fabulous beach i have been pictures off, how far away is that please.
Are these on St Thomas or St Maarten - see i dont even know that
). It is on the opposite side of the island from where the ship comes in. I get turned around, so I don't know if it is the south side or the north side.
Meghan's is on St. Thomas and Trunk is on St. John (it is about a 45-60 minute ferry ride from the dock where the Magic comes in, in St. Thomas).
Meghan's can be easily gotten to by taxi (in fact, if there are a ton of us doing it, we could just get our own taxi
The issue with Trunk is whether to take the DCL excursion or to go on your own. If you go on your own, you will have more time on the beach and it will cost a lot less. The drawback is if you can't get back due to sea conditions and the ferry (always a big fear of mine). If it is on a DCL excursion, they should (but not sure if that is guaranteed) wait for you to get back.
As for St. Maarten, there is a beach right where the ship comes in that is nice (can't remember the name, but I have pictures at home), Orient (on the French side - keep in mind if you go with kids), Maho (which looks like it doesn't exist much anymore) and Dawn (this might be the one we try this time). I believe Cass also mentioned another one near Maho as well.
Yeay Karen!
I'm sorting through recipes right now - trying to plan next week's menus while on break. Healthy stuff!
Seven Mile and Meghan's are two totally different beaches and both really nice. I know Meghan's is in the top 10 beaches in the world. Not sure if Seven Mile is on the list. Usually Meghan's is like glass, but was somewhat rough/wavey when we went. I'd like to try it again. I think Suz may push to go to Trunk though because we haven't been there. With either Trunk or Meghan's, you should have time to do the Tram before getting back on the ship.
I don't have the ones from right on the beach at Meghan's Bay here at work (or on my photo bucket site). I'll try to post some later. But here are a couple from the top of St. Thomas looking down:
What do people in 2 working parent families do during the off time?

Come on people - I need a photo fix
Post some piccies.
Paige - hows the home coming on?
Jen - is your basement back to normal?
Jeff - how was your Nan?
Rose - where are you?
Benda - you all packed for your yacht trip yet?
Everyone - how are you all?
So many questions.........
Can you tell I'm bored
I'm on my 2nd merlot nand its only 8.15pm
I blame Ellis - he's driving me to drink
I'm bored too Karen.
Then, say you want a tuna sandwich - tuna is a core food, but the bread is not. So, you'd spend your points for the bread. Simple, yet complicated, and a lot more cooking is involved (no frozen pizza on the core plan!). So, for me, it ends up being quite a bit more work, but it's really healthy eating.
It's not cruise related (unless we're going to Alaska) but here's a picture of Kristin and Jesse.
Got anything nice planned for the weekend Nancy?
The weather forecast here is awful - strong winds and rain
At least Neil will be home on the evenings so we can go out for dinner.
Hows your Daddy and Spencer?
). He's doing ok..Not good, not fine...just ok. 
Karen,
The WW core plan is a program where you can eat as much as you need to feel satisfied from a select list of items, then you have 35 points a week to spend on non-core foods.
The core foods list includes most fruits and veggies, lean meats, poultry without skin, skim milk, etc. Basically all the really healthy stuff you're supposed to be eating in the first place!
The workmen were all done with the basement on Monday, but I can't rebuild the shelving or put any of my stuff back into storage yet, which drives me a little nuts. I see this big pile of stuff in my family room down in the basement and I want to put it away, but I won't be able to until next week. Once the concrete is dry, I will be going through all my stuff in storage, sorting, getting rid of stuff I don't need or stuff that got water-damaged, and putting it all back.
Keep the merlot, but I'll help you with that cheesecake!
Here's a picture of the BEST waitstaff on the Magic:
Ekaterina (Croatia) and Sebastian (France)
She is so pretty
Where was that taken? who carved it? ... and dont try to pretend it was you either
Here are the pictures Andy posted of the tram yesterday. It is a cable car that goes to a high point above the bay that the ships come into.
