Allllll Aboard for the Rumrunner Express!!!
Up to The Remission Zone
Pack your bags, ladies and gentlemen! A very small bag - after all, a bikini (or a pair of swim trunks), a pair of flip flops and a toothbrush don't take up much room, right? (this is our fantasy, so we don't need an extra suitcase for meds!)
I hearts me some St. Thomas this time of year. I'll be at Bluebeard's Beach Club, a lovely spot with a private beach and a pool bar. Meet you there!!
Ahhh, St. Thomas...I have many happy rum filled memories of the island!
I love the place you picked! I'm packed (so much quicker when you leave the meds home!)...and since this is a fantasy, I suppose I will be thin enough for my bikini. Just one question, will they bring the drinks with the umbrellas to us on the beach, or do we have to walk the few feet to the pool bar? , and oh, does this mean cabana boys?
Cabana boys are included, dearest. 
And of course we are all thin, tan, and blonde (tho I think I shall choose to be a red head!)
I have us all scheduled for morning massages with Sven, Torvald and Ivan, Swedish students who are studying their art at the local university. I hear they have very good, uh, hands. 
Go easy on the Cruzan the first night...last time I threw caution to the winds and spent my first night worshipping the porcelain god. lol The next morning I looked at the bottle and said "holy O*(&*&^, how much did I drink??"
Hurray! just what I needed...
do you see that little umbrella? I will be lounging there, with a mojito, and a good book. Well, maybe a cabana boy. Although, now that I see his audition photo, maybe Sven!
Okay kids, we've had our morning massages and mimosas. What shall we do this afternoon? Anyone up for a swim with the sharks??

I'm sorry...did you say "morning" massage? Well I slept very late, and kind of missed morning. Sven, Torvald and Ivan had no more appointments available, but they recommended Gjord. Well he certainly did not look like a Gjord, (more like a middle aged balding Harvey), but oh...what amazing hands!!! A two hour massage with hot stones (heated in the sun). Of course that made me thirsty so I fell into some of those pretty looking drinks, drifted off to sleep on the beach, and am awaking now to a breathtaking sunset!
So where is everyone?? Still swimming with the sharks, or unwinding with Sven and company??
We're just headed off to Craig & Sally's for a late dinner, Beverly! Mmmm, the wine selection is excellent...it's a bit hard to find in the dark so Sven kindly offered to drive even after a hard day of giving massages. 
The menu changes every day but I guarantee it'll be good!

ummmm... *drrrroooooooooooooooooooool* over the menu!
(or, maybe I've just had a few too many of those colored drinks!!)
Kate and Carolyn,
I'm sorry I'm late for dinner, but I've been busy with Sven, uh, let me re phrase that., on the way to the restaurant, Sven took the scenic route to show to give me a tour of the island from his open jeep. (That does not sound right either, why does everything with Sven sound so suggestive?) Anyway, the view is incredible, (I'm referring to the water and lights not Sven), and we should be at the restaurant any minute.
Sven is not tired and wants to hang out with us. He called a few of his friends to meet us. He did warn me that when he drinks he loses his ability to speak the little English he knows, so I hope you guys understand Swedish?
[[why does everything with Sven sound so suggestive?]]
Did you...want it to sound suggestive?
[[hope you guys understand Swedish]] Nope! But then again, who cares? After a couple rum drinks, I can't even understand English...

Hey ladies, I got lost again out on the beach.... then again I'm always lost.
I'm getting hungry myself what's for dinner?
Hmm, let me think...Let's save the Banana Tree Grill for the last night we're here. The nighttime view of the bay from the terrace is the best on the island.
How about we do shopping in downtown Charlotte Amalie and lunch in the old town section at Gladys's Cafe? Their jerk chicken sandwich is to die for. After that we can work it off by climbing the 99 steps up the hill to visit Blackbeard's Castle and the historic homes.
They give you free rum punch on the tour.
sorry! fell asleep under a palm tree at the beach! I'm going to wake up to say.... mmmmmmmmmmmmmm... rum punch...

Mmm, that looks yummy!!
Free rum punch seems to be the order of the day wherever you go in St. T. In my profile picture I'm holding a glass of free punch at the botanical garden overlooking Magen's Bay.
The free rum punch is sure gonna help me up those 99 steps! I'm getting thirsty just looking at the picture..lets go!!
Okay, girls, put your best pair of dancing flip flops on, we're off to Ladies Night at the Greenhouse for happy hour and half price hors d'ouerves! (did i spell that right? who cares?)

I love the location of this joint - right on the main drag that leads into the old town. Snag a table by one of the open windows and drink in the energy, as everyone walks or drives by this corner. Street vendors hang out around here too, so you can pick up a pretty shell necklace souvenir for cheap.
[Stumbling in, draped in shell necklaces, sporting a coconut bra and clutching empty rum bottle]
I don't know where the heck I've been for the past few weeks, but I guessing I had a good time! I think I need some beach time...
Hey girls,
Where is my invitation? I know I may not live on your doorstp but believe me when a sexy guy is on the menu 'Concord' had nothing on me for speed.
In my ignorance I had never heard of St Thomas as a location, am I right in thinking that it's on the Virgin Islands (where would we be without the internet)? Well that sounds like the perfect island for a clean living girl like me.
First of all I need to meet up with Sven just to get up to date on what you girls have been up to without me. May I suggest that I spend all of my first day with him, just to familarize myself with everything and of course take advantage of my complimentary massage.
I must say that after all the massages you girls have received, poor Sven must be in need of some therapy himself. I like to think that I have soothing hands on the right person, so perhaps you shouldn't disturb us for most of my second day too as I get to work on some of those muscles.
Ooh is that I groin strain that I see?...
