Enjoy the rest of your trip. Tell Tag and Pam hello.

Carol and tag won't be home til the night of the 21st..........After being away from home for 2 weeks, I'm not sure when she'll be ready to post her pics, but we're 1/2 way there....we know she/or tag knows how to get the pics on their puter, she has an account on photobucket, and she got into it before she went away YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is good for Mac and she knows i'm saying that with love. She also knows I'm available for a "class" if and when she needs me that week. So hang tight people, pics will be posted! Also say a little prayer that the weather improves (hasn't been great), and that those damb bugs stop biting Carol's ankles

For one standing beside her I know her pics turned out better than mine. Jimmy jumps around the stage. He is hard to photograph. I just switched to Apple so I am a little challenged on posting the pics etc. I am sure Dave and Laurie will be posting also. I got bit by the mosquitos on my legs and feet (they love my feet). Jim on the other hand didn't get one bite. Must not like Italians!! Ha. Oh no, the weather hasn't been so great? That has to change!!!

We arrived home late last night this was an unforgetable vacation !!!! St. Barts is an island we will return too hopefully sooner than later . . . . We miss the beautiful beaches, wonderful food , sweet looking locals , warm breezes !!

**Laurie & Steve*** welcome back to the real world. SIGH..... I told people at work there wasn't one thing about this trip that was disappointing or a let-down. We enjoyed your company and wish we would have stayed a few more days to party with everyone. We will be back to St Barts (come on with the dollar-euro). I was worried about getting all my shells, sea glass and Autour tile back. No problems though. Talk again soon!!!

Shirley we wish we were still there too we only missed our rotties and they are laying comfortably on our bed as I type . . . I had to check our carryon luggage as our huge brain coral and Ti Punch bottle couldn't be carryed on the plane. The weather after you left was cloudy with bits of sunshine but after the climb to Columbier beach we welcomed the not so blasing sun . . . . I really need to start doing stuff at the house but still am in vacation mode !!!!

A local writer sums up last weekend's events-

If anyone has a DVD of the show I am willing to pay for shipment, disc cost etc. We have a few pics, but the show live we would cherish forever. I still can't believe I was there> It was the most amazing JB show I have ever witnessed.

Dave's (Tag's) video is awesome, I told him I won't bug him about it until after the holidays but that then I will email or call him daily to ask where it is. Stay tuned for it.
He couldn't record ALL of each song but the quality is very very good. We all had goosebumps watching it again a few nights later.

I can only echo what everyone else has said, there was nothing disappointing about the weekend at all - even with blondie being pushed in front of us
Love all you guys!

(((((Pam))))) Can't wait to hear more details!!!!

Thanks for the info. I would love a copy and I will keep checking this post to see any new info. My wife and I still can't believe how awesome the show was, especially all the parrotheads who made the trip. If only we could swing Tahiti in Feb... (sigh)

Don't worry about Tahiti, he's been singing that song for 3 years and hasn't made it there yet!

The woman in the harbor was Wendy, a part-time St Maarten resident. She came over on one of the boats from St Maarten.

There are 2 great videos on Youtube I found this morning. Cedric, videotaped at the Paris show and it wound up on Margaritaville video. Jim and I made the cut on CIP. The guy playing the guitar.... was his first concert, go figure. No other concert will ever live up to this one. We are standing with him singing. We were the young mans back-up singers. And lets not forget MacPhins own "Dave"!!!
Then we also have parothdlar in the video too.

Oh MAN I was watching the wrong one! I was watching one by SBHazard or someone. Which actually shows us pretty well too. But this was great since it gives you the whole picture of the day.

And you're right, I'm ruined now for going back to the row I normally end up in!

Both of those videos are great. I remember the Paris one when someone posted about it here. If only we would have known it was "Cedric-our man" taping. We could have put on a whole BN show with all of us for him!!!

I was looking at that video, and I said "Hey, that's Shirley! And that's Jim!" The entire video has now been preserved for prosperity.

I said the same thing 10 years ago. The thing is, you never know for sure what the future will bring. I was wrong 10 years ago - I didn't know about this year. So, I'll say the same thing now, but hope that I'm wrong (again).

Good point Bahston, I figure I have to get back to St Barts looooooong before 10 years but will have to plan our future trips there according to the next 10 years to we hit it again...... fingers crossed for another bash. I have seen in my family enough how things like health can change things with a snap of the fingers.

Every time we have been to St. Barths we hear the stories "Jimmy was here two weeks ago and dropped into Baz and played for an hour".

I guess the moral of the story is - go to St. Barths as much as you can!

I will get the DVD's burned of the limited footage I have today.
