BVI was what got me hooked on the tropics. If not there it would've been some where in the South China Seas.

WhiteWater / Great suggestion. Why tease yourself with a lifestyle that you can't support long term? Go top drawer if it's vacation only. Live within your means if you are scouting a permanent place to live. That is really good advise.

Might not be the most memorable of vacations but certainly some great and realistic suggestions...thanks WhiteWater.

Simon, what are good websites for me to bring up & see why you were so taken by the South China Seas. That is a part of the world I am very unfamiliar with. Would like to know more.

Wow, Simon ... Same for me, Anegada was the one !

thanks

You'll have to start surfing, I haven't look there in years. Why bother, I'm home now.
