Shame you missed the town's gondola and wonderful historic buildings, but nice footage none the less. Boy, they weren't kidding when they said this is a shopping island. One of my coworkers was stationed in the coast guard there and said there's a Polish family that owns an entire street of shops.
Things are a little more expensive there. We didn’t really compare prices between the two places. We would assume they are less downtown. Thank you for your comments and thank you for subscribing to our channel.
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.

This is from our website, portmonkeys.com : "The Origin of Our Name In our search for a name for our RUclips channel we considered what makes a good name. We wanted something catchy that also represented us. When Gareth was younger he had a couple of pet Spider Monkeys, HeShe and Mona. His parents used to call him a little monkey also. It turns out that Janet's parents also referred to her, and her 10 siblings, as little monkeys on occasion. Put that together with our love of ports and cruising and Port Monkeys was born."

Please explain what the reference Port Monkey means for your audience.
