Gorgeous desk I looked far and wide for a large desk with an antiqued white finish. I found this one on Overstock a few months ago, but it was out of stock. I looked elsewhere but never could find one I liked as much as this one. I ordered right away when I got the email that it was back in stock-- so glad that I did! This desk is GORGEOUS. Heavy, sturdy, and a beautiful antiqued finish (it is really a true white with blackish gray shading). The knobs are also of nice quality. That said-- it came in 2 large boxes and comes in a hundred pieces, so be prepared to spend a few hours assembling. You will need 2 people to assemble it, and it is heavy so it is a definite 2-person lift. Also in case anyone is wondering, the back does have a wavy decorative shape, BUT the extra moulding that you see on the sides does not continue to the back. I originally was going to have the back of the desk face the entrance to my office, but since the back is not as attractive as the sides and front, I am going to change the layout to showcase that part of the desk. Overall-- great purchase. You won't be sorry!

Beautiful but not perfect. I have had this desk for over a year now and I do love it! However, the desk arrived in many little pieces and you have to assemble it yourself. Its not simple but if you are handy, it will be fine. Even to this day, once in a while one drawer will come apart or is difficult to open because some screws didn't tighten or line up perfectly. I am handy and I was careful when assembling it so don't believe I am the fault of this problem. The desk is pretty to look at and is large so I am able to have a computer, printer, inbox and books on it all at once. If you can't find a similar preassembled desk, this would be a good alternative.

Writing Desk It's pretty large once assembled. Speaking of...plan on spending a few hours assembling - but once it's done - the desk is quite nice. We covered it with a plastic top to save the wood from damage by little ones using markers, etc.

Love desk, but not assembly or warped top I would rather there be a maybe for if I would recommend. First the desk is very nice, very heavy and great design. However, the top of hte desk which is very heavy, was slightly bowed (warped) in the middle which made assembly very very difficult. It took 4 adults all pushing and standing on the top to get it down far enough for the bolts to catch. For the price, this should not have been the case. If it had not been for that - this desk would have gotten 5 stars and better ratings. I am sure we could have attempted to return and replace, but with such a large bulky piece we decided to make due vs the hassle.

GREAT DESK!!! This is a great desk. I love the color and look in our living room. The directions are very user friendly; however it did take me about four hours to put is together. At one point you will need another person to help you push it together. Make sure you don't let any little ones pick up the pieces as there is just one extra of each screw and wood peices. You will only need a phillips screwdriver and a mallot to hammer a little to not ruin the wood. The last step will be to put the top of the desk on and there are alot of screws that have to line up. We did it one line at a time using a hammer to push them into place. Also there are little bolt things that you turn to lock in...pay attention to where the arrow is so you know the hole is open so you are not trying to push a screw into a closed bolt. Hope this is helpful. It is a great desk and VERY pretty. Also the surface does not scratch easily and is very easy to wipe clean. Make sure you measure your area as this desk is a little bigger than I thought it would be from the picture.

This classic piece fills the need. The desk came in two heavy packing boxes and took a few hours to assemble. While all of the pieces were well labeled, the assembly instructions left a little to be desired. The overall quality of this item was good, and well worth the price paid.

You'll love it. I did! I love this desk. I am proud to have it in my office. It was exactly the size I needed. Desk top 60 inches by 30 inches. It is sturdy and makes very nice look in an office designed for a female. I would have appreciated a little decoration on the front of the desk where guests to my office sit. Sitting behind this desk the drawers and pulls are nice. My husband and I have lots of experience assembling furniture, and I found this very easy to understand and to do. Buy it is my recommendation. You won't be sorry.

The Obama administration on Tuesday approved over-the-counter sales of the morning-after pill for age 15 and above, a move that contradicts a court order requiring the pill to be made available to women of all ages.
While it fell short of that order, the administration's move represents a historic liberalization of contraception rules — perhaps the most significant since the morning-after drug was approved 14 years ago. Today, Plan B is available to teenagers younger than 17 only with a prescription. Older women must request it from a pharmacist.

The future of Bahrain's energy sector
With $14 billion worth of oil, gas power and water projects planned or under execution, Bahrain is re-asserting itself as a regional powerhouse in the oil & gas as well as power & water sectors.
Details of the massive projects opportunities will be comprehensively discussed at the forthcoming Bahrain Energy Forum 2014 organized by MEED, in partnership with Bahrain's National Oil and Gas Authority (NOGA), the supreme government agency responsible for the kingdom's hydrocarbons industry.
Under the patronage of Sheikh Ahmed bin Mohammed Al Khalifa, Minister of Finance and Minister in charge of Oil and Gas Affairs who will be delivering the opening keynote, Bahrain Energy Forum is scheduled on April 22-23, 2014 at the Crown Plaza Manama. The staging of the forum coincides with the 80th anniversary of Bahrain's export of crude oil, and celebrates the achievements made the Kingdom's hydrocarbons, power and water sectors.
"Bahrain Energy Forum 2014 will provide a comprehensive update of the exciting plans and associated project opportunities to reaffirm Bahrain's historic position as the energy hub of the Gulf and the wider Middle East.
Additionally, it will explore the upcoming prospects for energy businesses globally," said Edmund O' Sullivan, Chairman, MEED Events.
The scope of the forum will cover Bahrain's energy industry plans and projects up to 2030, encompassing the oil and gas, electricity and water production and heavy industries. Confirmed speakers include Sheikh Mohamed Bin Khalifa Al Khalifa, Chief Executive, NOGA Holding (investment arm of National Oil & Gas Authority) who will be sharing the company's vision and future investment strategies; Mr Adel Khalil Al Moayyed, Chairman, Bahrain Petroleum Company (BAPCO) who will be addressing the opportunities associated with the Sitra Refinery worth $4.5 billion.
Also speaking at the conference are Dr Edward Hanley, Chief Executive Officer, Tatweer Petroleum, who will be giving a snapshot of the opportunities associated with Bahrain's oil and gas field developments projects including Awali Field redevelopment; and Fadhel Al Ansari, General Manager, Manufacturing, Gulf Petrochemical Industries CO. (GPIC) who will present on the Sitra ammonia/urea plant expansion plans valued at $1.5 billion.
There will also be a dedicated session discussing the energy demand and supply forecast in Bahrain and its implications on industrial development in the Kingdom's economic diversification; as well as a comprehensive report to be presented by MEED insight on the energy megaproject delivery challenge throughout the GCC.
Internationally, the forum will be on the spotlight as it discusses The Global Energy Balance to 2030, a special session dedicated to forecasting trends in the world energy and hydrocarbons market in the next 16 years; and outlining the growing role of unconventional gas and liquids in the global energy market.
Bahrain Energy Forum 2014 will attract more than 120 government representatives responsible for Bahrain's energy sectors, NOCs, IOCs, EPC contractors, FEED Consultants, developers, oil and gas service delivery companies, power and water technology service providers; as well as banks, investors, export credit agencies, multilaterals, contractors and management consultants

1971 Plymouth Road Runner History The Plymouth Road Runner was a performance car built by the Plymouth division of the Chrysler Corporation in the United States between 1968 and 1980. In 1968, the first muscle cars were, in the opinion of many, moving away from their roots as relatively cheap, fast cars as they gained options. Although Plymouth already had a performance car in the GTX, designers decided to go back to the drawing board and reincarnate the original muscle car concept. In 1971, the coupe bodywork was completely changed to a more rounded fuselage design in keeping with then-current Chrysler styling trends, including a steeply raked windshield, hidden cowl, and deeply inset grille and headlights. In a departure from previous thinking, the B-Body two-door bodies shared little if any sheet metal, glass, or trim with the four-door bodies. The convertible was canceled. 1971 was a high-water year for ride and handling for the Road Runner. VIN RM23H1G139713 Recent ground up restoration!

The weather has been horrible here so I got to thinking about new pigs. I dug up some pictures to post.
The first one is "Ol Droopy" My favorite sow.
The next one is some of her babies coming up to see us.
These next two are my daughter Amber and son Addison helping to work a new litter of pigs. We have just notched the pig's ears so what you see is mild iodine.

Heating Oil Prices Hold Steady amid Speculation on US Budget Deal
December 18, 2012
Augusta, Maine – The Governor's Energy Office (GEO) is conducting its weekly heating fuel price survey for this year's heating season. On Tuesday, December 18, 2012, the current statewide average cash price for No. 2 heating oil is $3.64 per gallon, unchanged from last week's price survey. The average price for propane follows a similar trend; in quantities used for heating, the price declined by only1cent from last week.
This morning's Bloomberg News discusses a slight upward trend in the WTI crude price (West Texas Intermediate, which is domestically produced oil) due to progress in US budget negotiations http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-12-18/oil-advances-a-third-day-amid-optimism-on-u-s-budget-agreement.html Speculation that negotiations are progressing to avoid the 'fiscal cliff' was also reflected in February delivery prices, which also increased slightly.
Using this week's average heating oil price and converting to a common heating unit value (million Btu), the price of fuel oil is at $26.25. This compares with an equivalent heating unit value for natural gas of $17.00 (at $1.70/therm); propane, $30.00 (at $2.74/gallon); wood pellets, $14.48 (at $239/ton); cord wood, $10.50 (at $210/cord) and electricity, $43.96 (at 15 cents per kwh). The electricity cost is for traditional baseboard heat. Electric heat pumps, a recent technological advancement, are much more efficient, so total energy costs are lower than oil, kerosene, or propane (see Efficiency Maine below).
The GEO has a calculator on its web site that allows consumers to estimate home heating costs and price impacts of various energy sources. See http://www.maine.gov/energy/index.html
As of December 18, 2012

It is important to note that the price for heating oil is a statewide average, and that prices in a given geographic region of the state may be considerably higher or lower than this average. Within the Energy Office sample, the lowest actual heating oil price of $3.35 per gallon was recorded in three regions of the state. The highest price of $4.00 per gallon was also reported in only one region. The average statewide kerosene price is $4.08 per gallon, also unchanged from last week. The statewide average price for propane based on a use of at least 900 gallons a year is $2.73 per gallon. The table above provides current Maine cash prices in dollars rounded to the nearest penny.

AIC football, men's soccer release schedules for 2014 seasonJuly 23, 2014 |
SPRINGFIELD – The American International College (AIC) football team has announced its schedule for the 2014 fall season featuring 10 games including nine Northeast-10 (NE-10) tilts. Head coach Art Wilkins led the Yellow Jackets to an 8-2 regular season mark last season, 8-1 in conference play, before defeating Stonehill in the NE-10 Championship game, 27-17, earning them a bid to play in the NCAA Championship against West Chester and finished the year 9-3 overall. Wilkins enters his 21st season with an overall career coaching record of 128-79 (.618), 108-40 (.730) in conference play, and five conference championships (1999, 2000, 2008, and 2014). The Yellow Jackets kickoff the season on the road at Assumption on Sept. 4 at 7 p.m. The Greyhounds handed AIC its lone conference loss of 2013 in dramatic fashion, 26-23. The following week, AIC heads to Division I-A Stony Brook Sept. 13 at 6 p.m. before their home opener, a NE-10 Championship rematch against Stonehill Sept. 20 at 1 p.m. at Ronald J. Abdow Field, one of four home games slated. Oct. 18 marks the homecoming game, this year playing host to New Haven at 1 p.m. The Yellow Jackets wrap up the regular season at home against Pace Nov. 8, which will also serve as Senior Day. The third annual NE-10 Championship Weekend is slated for Nov. 15, opponent, location, and kickoff time to be determined. In addition to the top two teams in the conference battling for the NE-10 title, games will be played between the No. 3 and 4 seeds and then the No. 5 team will host the No. 10 seed, while No. 6 will host No. 9 and No. 7 will host No. 8. *** The men's soccer team also announced its 2014 fall schedule featuring 17 games including 13 NE-10 contests. Head coach Fred Balbino enters his 18th season at the helm, compiling an overall record of 109-170-26, the winningest coach in program history. He led the Yellow Jackets to a 6-8-3 mark last season, 4-7-2 in conference play. AIC opens the season with four non-conference tilts beginning with the home opener against Felician Sept. 4 at Abdow Field at 7 p.m. The Yellow Jackets then hit the road for three straight non-conference games at the New York Institute of Technology, Mercy, and Georgian Court, before opening NE-10 play for the second straight year against Adelphi Sept. 16. The team will play three of its eight home games in-a-row when Saint Michael's (Sept. 27), New Haven (Sept. 30), and the defending Division II National Champions Southern New Hampshire (Oct. 3) visit Abdow Field. Senior Day will take place on Oct. 25 against Merrimack and the Yellow Jackets will end its regular season on the road at Saint Anselm (Oct. 31). |

Find Chestnuts in
Until the early 1900's American chestnut trees grew extensively over eastern North America, but within 50 years they were almost completely destroyed by the chestnut blight.
Selected Chinese and Japanese blight resistant varieties have painstakingly and successfully been introduced since.
Chestnuts contain 40 to 45 % carbohydrates, 5% oil ,and 50% moisture. They dry rapidly ,so care must be taken during storage. Once peeled of their outer shell and thin skin they can be enjoyed roasted, boiled, pure�d, preserved, pickled, as marrons glac�s, saut�ed with brussel sprouts or red cabbage and of course, in oriental cuisine.
Chestnuts are synonymous with Christmas and winter. In London street corners they were sold freshly roasted in small paper bags. Chestnut roasters can still be found in antique shops or country markets, they look like small lidded, round boxes full of air holes and with a long handle (should you come across one).

Warm, sunny days are becoming limited around here, so we decided to make the most of the good weather and make these stilts. This is a fun activity that I remember doing as a child, and my kids didn't really even know what stilts were, so I though this would be fun to do with them.
I used #10 food storage cans that were going to be recycled anyway, but you could use any sturdy metal can (like a large soup can). Just use your judgement on if it is strong enough/ big enough for your child.
My 4 year old loved being my helper and the look on his face when he tried the stilts for the first time was priceless.
Here's how to make your own tin can stilts:
1. Gather your materials. You'll need two metal cans that are the same size, some twine or strong cord, scissors to cut the cord, a thicker- sized nail, and a hammer.
2. Using the nail and hammer, make two holes- one each on opposite sides of the can, just under the rim of the sealed end of the can.
3. Cut a length of cord or twine and poke each of the ends through the holes you just made. The length you should cut the twine depends on the height of your child. When they are standing on the stilts, the twine should come high enough that they can grip it easily but have no slack in the string (slack makes it easier to fall off or trip).
4. Tie the ends of the twine together inside the can for a hidden knot- or, if you want easier adjusting, string it though the opposite way, with the knot at the top where the handhold is.
5. Repeat steps for the other can.
Photo credit goes to my 4 year old! |
Test it- you know, quality control! Remember that the strings need to be pulled very tight as you walk in order to keep the cans next to your feet to avoid tripping or falling. It may take a little practice!
My first grader wanted to get in on the fun when he got home from school and both boys spent about an hour tromping in and out of the garage and down the sidewalk.
Yay for homemade (recycled) toys! Do you remember making stilts like this as you were growing up?

Ran DD-WRT for a months but QOS is quite buggy on my dir300, guess you have to pay? to get decent QOS so went to Gargoyle(OpenWRT) and everything is great except for a slower boot time but it got the best QOS out there and Active Congestion Control is an online gamer's best friend.
Another I have noticed is DD-WRT rude mods which turned me off.

Island Tour
On one of our visits we took a tour in a taxi around the island. Island tours by taxi usually include the popular sites and scenic look out points like Drake's Seat. The taxi in the Virgin Islands is called a safari. Its a truck which has been outfitted with bench seating in the back. It is open air but covered. Safari buses vary in size, some can hold up to 26 passengers. Usually that means that the tour is a group tour.
Taxi rates, including taxi tours, are set by the VI Taxicab Association. For example, Sightseeing Tour for 2 hours; one passenger $50, two or more passengers $25 per person. Tour for 3 hours; one passenger $60, two or more passengers $30 per person.
Our tour was in one of those cab/bus/tourist vehicles which had space for 27 people. Since there were just the two of us in it we had our choice of seats. I took 132 photos and Bob took 5. But all of his were good, and I know some of mine are not going to be worth keeping. I missed a beautiful shot of a brown cow with a cattle egret on her back.
We went all around the top of the island looking things from the overlooks - at each place there were places to buy souvenirs, but I didn't get any. We ended up going through Charlotte Amalie, and then he took us right back to the ship. The tour (which was about 2 hours) was $50, and Bob gave him $60. -
One of the nice things to do in the Virgin Islands is diving and snorkeling. Almost anyone can snorkel. You can snorkel from the beach or snorkel from a boat.
A list of boats is on the St. Thomas V.I. page at the URL below.
One of the boats like ours that you can snorkel on is Independence. This was the boat that Bob went to look for on our 2010 visit.

VI Ecotours mangrove kayak & snorkel
We arranged for a trip with Virgin Island Ecotours online, we chose the Kayak & Snorkel the Marine Sanctuary & Mangrove Lagoon trip at 10:00am which was $62.10 ($69 less 10% for booking online) for 2 1/2 hours of kayaking through the mangroves and snorkeling from shore. We arrived in port at 8am which gave us plenty of time to get to "the snorkeling spot" by taxi, we were there at around 8:45am so we could have also done the full day tour that started at 9am. When we asked them what the difference was in the tour, they said they couldn't accomodate us because they didn't have lunch for us. If it was me running the operation, I would have driven over to the nearest grocery store and picked us up a lunch and tried to sell us the more expensive tour but it seems to be run by a bunch of young kids.
After taking the tour, I was glad we didn't sign up for the longer tour. The 2 1/2 hour tour was enjoyable enough but no WOW factor, the mangroves were interesting as our guide explained to us how they survive in salt water and the important role they have in maintaining the island's fish and bird population but we only saw a couple of birds, a pelican and a great blue heron, and the snorkeling was fine but paled in comparison to the snorkeling we did later in Bonaire. Our guide did pull a jellyfish out of the water so we could hold it, obviously not as venomous as the ones you find in other places like Australia, and later a starfish unlike any I've ever seen. He also pointed out some tiny barracudas near the roots of the mangroves, no more than an inch long. He spotted a nurse shark as well but we couldn't get over to it fast enough
I believe this is more or less the same tour that is offered by Princess for $89 per person, it actually came out to about the same amount of money as the taxi cost us $20 each direction. But we were in a smaller group of 6 people which made it a more enjoyable trip than if we were herding 10 or 20 people.
Bring aqua shoes, swimwear, cash for a gratuity. They provide bottled water and a mask and snorkel, we brought our own -
Sapphire Beach
After the kayak/snorkel trip we decided to head to the beach for a few hours of chilling out so we hitched a ride with some fellow kayakers to Sapphire Beach where they were staying and found a nice shady spot under a tree to relax and read a book. Sapphire Beach is reported to be one of the nicest beaches on St. Thomas, you can rent a lounge chair for the afternoon (I think it was $7 for the day) or sit on the beach. There didn't appear to be much in the way of food, I saw one snack bar with very high priced burgers and hot dogs so I waited until we went back to the ship to eat.
You can snorkel off the beach here, follow the other people that are already in the water as they go around the reef. We had our own masks and snorkels but I'm sure you can also rent them, unless you are a really weak swimmer you don't need fins or a floatation device.
You should be able to see some iguanas here either on the beach or in the trees, they seem to be used to the presence of humans, some of them getting within a few feet of us, presumably because they equate humans with food as I'm sure some people give them snacks.
Other beaches I've seen recommended include Coki Beach which is supposed to be the island's best snorkeling spot, Magen's Bay is often listed as one of the world's most beautiful beaches and Secret Harbor. Sapphire Beach wasn't overcrowded, most of the people there seemed to be staying at the resort and not off the cruise ships. -
99 Steps
The 99 Steps are just an example of the step structures that were built by the Danes as a way to climb the steep hills of Charlotte Amalie. The bricks used to construct the steps were brought from Denmark as ballast in sailing ships. I have no idea why they call it the 99 steps since we counted 103 steps when climbing......

Visit Frenchtown
Frenchtown is about half a mile south of Charlotte Amalie. This area of St, Thomas was settled by immigrants of St. Barthelemy. The majority of these immigrants were French and many still speak Creole today. Fishing is popular in this area as well as the restaurants and bars. It's just another example of the diverse cultures coming together in the Caribbean.

Emancipation Gardens
The Emancipation Gardens is a park that is on the site that the Emancipation Proclamation was read on July 3, 1848, freeing the slaves of St Thomas. The event took place after officials received word that governor Peter von Scholten had freed the slaves on St Croix. The park features benches, a gazebo and a replica of the Liberty Bell. Concerts and The Carnival Village in April is here in the park.
The times that we have visited the park have been during beautiful weather so we have seen people lounging on benches, women pushing strollers and children playing in the gazebo. It really is a nice park and provides some good shade and refuge from the heat.Related to:- Historical Travel

Rothschild Francis Statue
Rothschild Francis was a Civil Rights and Labor leader for Virgin Islanders. He started a newspaper; The Emancipator to champion his causes especially civil rights and the plight of the poor islanders. He became a councilman and even was a delegate to Congress; the first St. Thomian to act as delegate. He was instrumental in the creation of civil government in St. Thomas. His efforts to help the poor with higher wages, labor unions and better working conditions helped endear him to the Islanders.

Bluebeard's Castle~More Myth than Reality
Bluebeard's Castle, the stone tower located on the grounds of "Bluebeard's Castle Hotel" is in fact not really a castle in the sense of the palaces we think of but legends that surround it would have you think so. The stone tower known as Bluebeard's Castle is a very old watchtower built in 1689 by the Danes to aid in the defense of "Fort Christian," originally called Frederick's Fort. While it served its purpose, giving excellent views of the harbor and downtown Charlotte Amalie, it is its connection to the legend of Bluebeard the notorius pirate which really has people interested in it.
Bluebeard, not to be confused with Blackbeard or Blackbeard's Castle, was another of the infamous 'pirates of the Caribbean'. The legend says that Bluebeard built the "castle" for his one true love, Mercedita. His jealously over her infidelity drove Bluebeard to murder her after which he sailed away from St. Thomas and never returned. Another story of unrequited love ending badly!
Now this fortress is part & parcel of the "Bluebeard's Castle Resort". It is said that the check-in at the hotel takes place in the former residence of the Danish Governor of the island and the fortress is part of the resort. Whether you will want to take the time to visit may depend on the amount of free time you have, but there are other attractions closer to Charlotte Amalie if you are interested in a bit of history.Related to:- Historical Travel

Feel Like Excercise? Try the 99 Steps
Ascending Government Hill between Kongens Gade and Store Tarne Gade is the historically known attraction, the "99 Steps". This steep stairway between the two streets built in the 1700's was constructed of multi-colored bricks by Danish engineers. The brick was previously used as ship's ballast by the Danes and now has a new life creating a picturesque climb with greenery on each side. Not for the faint of heart, but for the aerobically fit, the persistant visitor will be rewarded with great views of the city and the Charlotte Amalie harbor. HINT: count the number of steps--is it 99 or even more!?! Watch your step and take your camera!
Descend the hill and head east to find the "Frederick Church Parsonage." One of the oldest houses on St. Thomas, the parsonage was built in 1725 and to this day retains its 18th century architecture, the only structure on the hill to do so. -
Magen's Bay ~ One of the World's Top Beaches
One of the most famous and beautiful beaches in the world is thought to be Magen's Bay on St. Thomas' north shore. It's signature horseshoe shape (I think it's more rectangular) is easily recognizable once you see it. It draws people from famous to not so famous--Bill Clinton often uses the home of a friend which faces Magen's Bay when he comes to St. Thomas.
Some people think because it has a gently sloping beach and little if any wave action that Magen's Bay is a perfect place for families with children. It does have bathrooms, salt-water showers, changing facitlies, picnic tables and a rental shop for all that fun beach stuff: floats, snorkel gear, lounge chairs, etc. (Some reviews on the bathrooms, etc., have not been favorable.) It also has a boutique, a bar for those delightful tall, cool drinks and snack bar for when the munchies creep up on you after all that swimming, sun and fresh air.
For snorkel nuts like me, try the more secluded western end. But this is not really the best snorkeling beach on the island.
Since Magen's Bay is considered a park, admission fees apply. About $1 for car parking; $3 dollars for adults and 25 cents for children under 12.Related to:- Beaches

Skyride to Paradise Point
Want another great spot for viewing Charlotte Amalie Harbor and the nearby islands? Try a tram ride up to Paradise Point. The ride lifts you up to 700 feet in a matter of minutes. Paradise Point also offers an observation deck, a place to get a cool drink at the Paradise Point Bar or even lunch. Like Mountain Top which is famous for Banana Daiquiries, Paradise Point is famous for a Baileys Bushwacker!
A lot of people will enjoy the tropical bird shows given at 10:30am & 1:30pm. If you miss these you can always browse around the shops and maybe pick up that souvenir you can't live without.
Unfortunately, Paradise Point is only open on days with cruise ship arrivals, but if you are in the area of Havensight Mall, I'd check it out anyway for the possibility. The ride is open from 9am to 5pm. Too bad it closes at 5pm because it would be spectacular to see it at night, but a spectacular sunset can be just as amazing.
Coupons for discounts off drinks or ride tickets can often be found at Tourist Offices, in Tourist Brochures, etc., all around town. -
Coral World Ocean Park
Coral World has been a favorite of families with children for many years. Adults may enjoy a day here as well, particularly in combination with Coki Beach. Coral World covers 5 acres, a very manageable size, in which you can enjoy the aquariums, outdoor pools and nature trails. Predator fish are always a big draw and you can see sharks, moray eels, and others in the special predator tanks. Feeding times and talks about these fascinating sea creatures by their caretakers can be very informative for children and adults alike.
In addition, the trademark dome building lets you observe many colorful types of sea creatures at a depth of 15 feet. Adults would really enjoy the helmet dives, snorkeling, SNUBA and parasailing here at Coral World. From Coki Beach, which is literally right next door, you can see lots of people give parasailing a try---you can always see them floating in the air--they really have a bird's eyeview of the islands and fantastic crystal blue water.
There is a little cafe called the "Hungry Iquana" nicely positioned under tall palms and shade trees which really is a nice amenity here and the park has provided lots of picnic tables too. Another snack bar just outside the gates is aptly called "Beach Bar & Cafe." The tables have a water view--can't beat that! The two gift shops here should make the kids very happy too (even adults such as myself--nice postcards!).
The park is open daily from 9am to 5pm. Great to combine Coral World with Coki Beach for a really nice day in St. Thomas!! Discount coupons for Coral World can be found at most tourist info. booths.
As mentioned above, Coki Beach is virtually only steps away from Coral World. I used the nice, little walkway to visit Coral World after taking a break from snorkeling time. Also, great to get a bite to eat at Coral World, because there really isn't a place for food at Coki.Related to:- Family Travel

Sapphire Beach
Located at the East end of St. Thomas, Sapphire Beach is another great place to spend all or just a part of your day. Beautiful white sand, and clear blue waters beckon me always! The beach is really part of the Sapphire Beach Resort & Marina, but they welcome a small amount of people to the beach daily. There you will find a great little beach with fine, white sand and crystal blue water. There is a dive shop renting snorkel equipment, sunfish boats, floats and more. Chaise lounge chairs can also be rented for the day. Though not as good for snorkeling as Coki Beach, you will like this beach anyway.
This place also has a nice little restaurant with a beach/water view, under cover too if you want a break from the sun! We had a nice meal here after spending several hours on the beach and in the water. It was not expensive and service was effecient and friendly.
If you need beach towels, sandals, sun block, swimwear, sunglasses, etc., there is also a nice little gift shop with friendly people to wait on you. There is restroom and changing facilties.
Don't miss the many iquanas that roam the property around the beach and resort.Related to:- Beaches

Touring St. Thomas for Less
During previous visits to St. Thomas we had never taken a tour of any kind. We usually walked around on our own and shopped. This visit in April, 2004, was different in that we decided to take a tour on our own. The ship's excursion price for a tour of the island was $40 - $45 per person. Whether you have arrived on the island independently or have arrived by ship, it will be easy to find a driver who will show you the island for a better price than a tour company or ship shore excursion.
Disembarking our ship at Havensight, there were any number of drivers lined up and waiting to drive you anywhere. We hired Mr. Roy Davis to give us a tour. We could have bargained for a lower fare but my husband just settled at his asking price which was $20 per person for a 2 hour private tour of the island in a van. Mr. Davis did a good job of giving us information on the sights and gave us several opportunities to stop and take pictures. Some of the places we saw as we circled about two-thirds of the island were", Mountain Top, and Magen's Bay. The views of Charlotte Amalie from the higher elevations were great. If you have a specific place you would like to see, you need only ask the driver, who in most cases I would think would be happy to take you there.
Like alot of other islands in the Caribbean, when you leave the tourist areas, you will find very poor areas with limited infrastructure--- bad roads, abandoned cars and trash, unkempt areas, etc. Keep in mind, this is an island with limited space for trash removal. "Low - income" housing built by the state or government is virtually non-existent. Still even very modest housing on St. Thomas is very expensive.
The tour was a great eye-opener. St. Thomas is still my favorite place to snorkel at this point.

Made it down the bay overnight
... for poor visibility we were ducking in and out of the channel to avoid Navy traffic.
During the trip down anything that wasn't fastened down below ended up on the floor in the salon. Left Annapolis at 2 Monday and arrived at Top Rack Marina at about 2 this afternoon. Rewarded ourselves with a great dinner out at the Amber Lantern Restaurant. Early to bed. Up at 5:30 tomorrow to get underway at first light.
Disappointing Virginia Beach!
... As we approached Virginia Beach we were buzzed by FA 18's fighter jets overhead! We soon found out we were camped near the Navel Air Station Oceana, the only Jet Base on the East Coast. We were serenaded with their daily training flights - or the sound of freedom! One night we had helicopters (I think) overhead until 1:30am YES in the middle of the night! They seem to be doing circuits for hours & hours. Needless to say we were not thrilled ...
Day 1 in Virginia
Arrived in Virginia at 9 in the morning with only about 3 hours sleep. I had to take a couple of hour nap in order to make it through the day, but it worked. I was able to go 9 holes of golf with my Son, Eric and my Grandson, Justin this afternoon.
A wonderful dinner of steak, mashed potatoes and grilled asparagus, all prepared by my grandson.
It was a great way to start this trip. I am looking forward to a great time with the family. ...
Our Passage from Great Abaco to the Chesapeake Bay
... totally skunked. But on day 3 after the wind returned we were making good time with full mainsail and genoa in SW winds of 12-16, producing boat speed of 6 to 9 kts. Not long after dawn we hooked some sort of billfish – identified by seeing the head and bill break water – but we never positively identified it as it soon escaped via a broken hook. Next, we brought a nice mahi all the way ...
Overnight Sail - Check
... partial cloud cover and an almost-full moon. We barely had any traffic, and we were able to easily sail in the direction of Norfol without any obstructions - we couldn't have asked for better conditions. We made really good time, and we were dockside, fueling and watering up just after 9:00 this morning at the Bluewater Marina in Hampton, Virginia.
We enjoyed some lunch at the restaurant here, and now we're just attending to some tasks - the boys ...

The ultimate Olympic throwback.
I've been looking for a good pair of white brogues FOREVER. If they keep making these the official Olympic uniform shoe, I might consider picking up a sport.
Indulge your inner Spice Girl.
I'd bet a lot of the girls who visit Opening Ceremony's London pop-up will leave with this easy summer dress.
A fresh take on patriotic sunglasses, compared to the star-spangled, red, white & blue frames we see every Fourth of July.
More gold accessories need to be this exact color: deep and regal, instead of that ubiquitous yellow-y faded version.
Tell everyone it's a thrift store find from that semester spent living abroad.
Wear it with low-top sneakers and cutoffs and all your other Wet Hot American Summer staples.
With a sliver of white and small red label, it's the most subtle Olympic-themed thing we've seen.
Originally designed for winners of the 1972 Olympics, these reissued sneakers now have Union Jack lining, too.
Ditch the beret and wear the blazer with printed loafers as a preppy fall staple.
Only Stella could pull off cartoon underwear that's pretty and sweet and not at all creepy.
Wear it as a sophistocated statement necklace that doesn't feel too neon, charm-y and Pretty Little Liars-like.

I first heard about T.A.M.P.A. when we met Cyd at the Veteran's Memorial Park. Her energy and dedication to Marines and their families is impressive. However, she is also willing to do anything to promote other support group organizations and assist ALL military branches. Our group participated in the R4F that they sponsored. The level of preparedness and professionalism was remarkable. The effort this organization expends toward the cause of military support is inspiring, I feel honored to be included in this circle of friends.

When people ask me what I've been doing this fall, I tell them I've been on a reading jag — reading new novels hot off the press. What I've found is that there have been a lot of very good books that have come out in the last year, including some by some very talented new writers who are just coming on the scene.
The temperature was 20 degrees below zero with a howling wind.
As I listened to the online stream of my hometown police scanner, I couldn't believe what I was hearing. Way up yonder, on the Canadian border, in the tiny town of Champlain, New York, my elementary school was burning to the ground last Friday evening. Over 100 years old, the enormous stone structure was ablaze, with massive flames reaching up into the frozen winter sky of the North Country.

Photos: SWAT takes suspect from blockaded Denver building
Police sealed off a downtown Denver block Wednesday morning before using SWAT officers, a battering ram and a remote-controlled robot to bring a barricaded suspect into custody.
