Island Time

Just a reminder, it’s not the same time on St. John as it is on the East Coast anymore. The U.S. Virgin Islands doesn’t recognize daylight saving time so for six months a year, Atlantic Time in the island matches daylight saving time on the East Coast. Now that the East Coast has changed back, it’s an hour earlier than it is on St. John. So, don’t panic if you look at your next airline ticket and think it takes an hour longer to make the trip.

    I guess that means you will need to haul your ass out of bed an hour earlier just to keep on the same schedule as St. John.
