Feed any iguanas you run into with hibiscus flowers, red ones especially, that's why if you're wearing red they might come up to you and try to chew on your shirt. My best friend's dad owned the largest dump truck on St. Thomas during the time they were moving the Eastern mountain to off the Western end of the runway extending it. His driver was dropping a load off the end, lost control and jumped out just in time to see it sink into the end of the runway. Time, resources, etc dictated that they just keep going. So when you land there, you are landing on a dump truck. My family of 6 including 2 of my grandparents were scheduled on the American Airlines flight that crashed on the island in 1976 running into a Shell gas station at the end of the short runway. My mom had a dream, and rescheduled us for a week earlier with all the work and changes made for dad's 3 stores to run for 2 weeks. We were at Magens when it crashed. A call went out for the 2nd most rare blood, AB-, which my father had. My dad said he wasn't taking time out from his vacation to donate blood. Read the karma my dad died to on that island 14 years after that crash, in this book with links below. I've probably been on more cruise ships than anyone reading this, yet never been on a cruise. My dad ran a ship chandlery that had a monopoly on selling liquor to the cruise ships in the early '80s, that I used to spend my afternoons after school doing my homework at, that was located at the last building on the Havensite dock (has Senior Frogs painted on its roof). After growing up on the island and starting when I was 17 in late 1986, we used to roam Charlotte Amalie downtown streets at night bar hopping Coconuts, Rosie O'Grady's, The Ritz, Yesterdays, then to the Greenhouse at 10pm for the current live band, when everyone was partying in the islands. Since the bars closed at 2 AM we would go out to steal cars, usually rentals, and race across the island, afterward sometimes stripping them for parts. I've floored it in a brand new 1987 Accord LXi from the Fort all the way to Frenchtown one night easily doing 100mph, which was not unusual to do with stolen cars but sometimes done even with the ones we sort of cared about. One night I was with a few locals and we got pulled over for racing into Frenchtown. The cop went to arrest one of us and he started skipping around the car in a circle repeatedly singing, "Haha you can't catch me!" to the cop. He made it a couple times around the car and we had to bail him out that night. I hold the record for most boats stolen in one night while alone; three - I took them to a birthday party.

Always enjoy the port of St. Thomas when we cruise. In this vlog it was nice seeing Mama Hocum. She hasn’t had much air time this vlog series. Hope you are well Mama Hocum, miss seeing you! 💙🛳⚓️
It has been too long since we were there as well. USVI is an awesome place. Next time you are there do the submarine excursion. You won't be sorry....unless you are claustrophobic. :)
Another great adventure on St. Thomas. Loved when you walked into the water , the fish was cool . Can't wait for more of Beautiful St. Thomas ... ❤ . I'm with Lauren on Guy's Burgers .
Love St.Thomas,one of my favorite ports.Megans beach is beautiful I enjoyed my time there .I agree with Lauren Guys Burgers,you can never go wrong with them.,I hope Peter is feeling better.
We LOVE ST.MARTEEN♡ ST.TOMAS IS absolutely beautiful.. we've been to Megan's bay.. pretty but over crowded. Open air bus hit a chicken. Lauren is so naturaly pretty!! We go on breeze Nov 2nd 2019 for the journey cruise 14 days !!!!🌞🌞🌞🌞🛳🛳🍹🍸🍻💺 so excited!
Magen's Bay one of my favorites! Been there 3 or 4 times. Do think the whole beach rental thing is too much. We usually put towels down under trees or camp out at a picnic table near the bar. The guys in the bar are great, from NY I think. Nice gift shop. All in all, reasonable aside from chair and umbrella rentals. Great place if you have small kids, very calm water. The view from your next video is awesome, great pictures for cruise enthusiasts.
Love Magans bay beach Water was beautiful! Problem is it can tend to het crowded. Especially if there is a few ships in...bit how do you pass up one of the 10 best beaches in the world! Was there last cruise...will DEFINITELY be back. St. Thomas and Tortola is one of my favorite itineraries
@@carolyngardner4999 Trunk Bay is on St. Johns about 45 min. ferry ride from Charlotte Amalie. Just check out all of St. Johns, the beaches are amazing. And there are many resorts on the island also.

Could see all the broken palms from the hurricane. Bare vegetation. But it's coming back. 🤗 Lived there for close to 30 yrs. Memories ❣️
I LOVE ST THOMAS!!!!❤️❤️❤️
As a mom, I like when Mama Hocum is part of the event! :}
And, of course, I enjoy seeing Lauren and Peter too.
Vicki McCollum I just left a comment myself, saying I miss Mama Hocum. She’s the best!
St Thomas looks beautiful. It's one of the islands i want to visit.
I was just over there on vacation, we went to St. John which is right beside St. Thomas, and it’s truly beautiful.
Best burger at sea for sure ...
You can never have enough of this amazing clear water beach
👍🏻👍🏻 for this video
i love your vlogs and lauren looks like she’s having so much fun besides her getting sick.
great video, def one of the best beaches in STT!

It has been too long since we were there as well. USVI is an awesome place. Next time you are there do the submarine excursion. You won't be sorry....unless you are claustrophobic. :)

Totally agree Vicki! It’s a must see at least once!
Hey Peter feel better.😊
Do they open the doors on the balcony if you ask ?
I have enjoyed watching your videos. I am taking this same cruise in Nov.
We really enjoy Meagan’s bay
The thing that you said they were building they are actually rebuilding from hurricanes irma and maria.
Another great vlog! Thx you! Really want to go to that beach now! :) I hope Peter feels better! Eat garlicy food at dinner, Peter! Good anti-viral! :)
Home! 🇻🇮 💜
almost seemed like you were trying to make Lauran fall on the ropes.
When is the Proposal wedding vlog???
LOOOLL
Woohoo!!!!’
Did you have to drag the chairs, loungers to where you wanted them?
The next time your in St. Thomas you have to go to sapphire beach I think it is much nicer than Megan's Bay.
I’ve heard many great things about this place!
I am going on September hopefully a hurricane doesn't mess it up
Is St Thomas beautiful in person cuz it looks amazing
Yes
Going to ride the carnival magic in dec :)
Hey what beach did you and Peter go to the last time in Mexico???
It was passion Island! Highly recommend!
Omg I live in st Thomas

I would cruise on Carnival just for the Guy's Burgers and fries!
: )
Tell Lauren to enjoy her youthful metabolism. Wont be eating pixy sticks in 20 years lol

Hope you had a blast!
Trunk Bay is better.
Give me the down low on truck beach

Stand still!! That pacing in the cabin made the video horrible! Stop making those crazy turns. The video would have been good otherwise.
