I wanna move there so bad. I think about it every damn day. Maybe one day. That left side of the road is kinda strange to me though. Somebody please kidnap me and take me here.
Tall Tales about the airport: best friend's dad owned the largest dump truck on the island during the time they were moving the Eastern mountain to off the 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. Tale #2 December 1989 through Jan 1990 I helped put the flat roof on the new airport terminal. White guys who hired me got fired for fist fighting the day before I came down to take the job. Spent three days doing nothing, checked the caps that held down the flat roof that had already been done. I think I counted 173 that weren't fastend. Told the guy who came down from Florida to take over the job, he didn't seem concerned. No idea if it passed inspection. Tale #3: 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 (5:04) at the end of the short runway. Mom had a dream, 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 on Magens when it crashed. Call went out for the 2nd most rare blood, AB-, which my father had. 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: Would you like to read about real modern pirates based out of St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands taking place in the end of the cocaine fueled 80s? www.amazon.com/dp/1653714360 or Kindle www.amazon.com/dp/B083C3DD19 (free with Ultimate).
USVI & Guam need overpasses & rail network for faster travel time

Make a right at the 19:52 mark, the only white house on the block........I call that home!
Thanks for an excellent video. I think next time, you should check the windshield though.
More of a St. Croix fan
That would give me the willies; driving in a LHD vehicle in the US VI.
Boy has St. Thomas changed
Yes, it has.
Very nice my home was there last year Nov 2019.
