Bonkers Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 BVI = British Virgin Islands. I had to look it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jammin Posted February 12, 2011 Author Share Posted February 12, 2011 Yeah, sorry about that. As you can see, Tortola is a stones throw from St. Thomas. St. Thomas is very easy to fly into. From there it is a 7 minute cab ride to the ferry dock and then a 45 minute ferry ride to West End Tortola (if you do not stop in St. John on the way). From West End (Sopers Hole) Tortola we normally rent a Jeep and stay up on the North Shore in Cane Garden Bay. Bombas and Little Apple Bay are also north side just over the hill from the Ferry dock.

Hipshot Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 We are not going to go without you CHFather....and your little girl too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jammin Posted February 13, 2011 Author Share Posted February 13, 2011 Just remember if you go, you will need a passport. Also, Tortola is a no frills kind of island unless you shell out big bucks to stay in Long Bay which is really the only "resort" kind of place to stay. Something tells me us busters are a tough people though and can handle "roughing it" so to speak. If not comfortable staying in the BVI one can always stay on St. Thomas or St. John and ferry over to Tortola for the day as well. If anyone would like recommendations on cost / logistics / affordable accommodations feel free to PM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dereksgirl Posted February 18, 2011 Share Posted February 18, 2011 what time of year do you usually go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jammin Posted February 19, 2011 Author Share Posted February 19, 2011 Anytime Jan through end of Feb depending on airfare. Been down during the summer as well when I felt it was a good idea to do another prevent. Funny how clusters has forced me to vacation on a regular bases and budget for this. I imagine without the condition I would never be able to justify doing this annually and would most likely only vacation well ever 5 years or so. Kind of a blessing in disguise!

Pixie-elf Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 I want to come! Mmm. Rum. Just don't look at me and ask why the rum's gone, I didn't do it. My Mom suggested we just send my boyfriend a ticket, make him go, and bring me back quite a few cases of that drink. Bwhaha. Mystina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 When consuming the rum do you actually trip? How much do you need to drink? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psiloscribe Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Hey Jammin!! great to hear from you. Yes people just to confirm, Jammin here, is one of the original busters and the real deal... I do think this would be a wonderful destination, meet 'n greet. I do need to get down there and "officially" crown Bomba as an honorary buster.
