Besides the driving on the left ... is it easy to get around? Marked roads? Maps/gps works? Worried about finding my way around. Like from the airport to costless then bluebeads.
are you going to ST. John or St Thomas?
ST. John easy, ST Thomas not so much.
It'll be pretty easy as you'll basically be all the way on main roads. Are you going to Bluebeard's Beach Club or Bluebeard's Castle? That would make a difference in my directions when combining with a trip to CostULess.
Now I see from another post that you're staying at Bluebeard's above town. What time of day are you arriving? Depending on that I might suggest you pick up just a few things for your first night at another supermarket en route and head out to CULess the next day. I'll be happy to give you directions.
STT, bluebeards castle.
Landing at 1 pm. Next day is easter, so worried that the markets might be closed? If they will be open, we can do the big shopping for the week on Sunday and just pick up a few things on the way in on Saturday.
More than likely CostULess will be closed on Easter Sunday but all the others will be open. You'll pass by a large supermarket on the way into town so can pick up some basics there to get you through to Monday and then hit CUL for your main event!
Do GPS's work on St Thomas?
GPS works to show where you are at, and how to get back to a bookmarked location. But, because we don't have a conventional street name/numbering address system it is difficult to preprogram the GPS for select destinations. Also, my Garmin always shows me driving on the right side of the road. So, very limited use for finding someplace new, but would get you back to a familiar place if you felt as if you were lost.
