What’s wrong with this picture?

Yes, that’s the Beach Bar. And no, there is not one Red Stripe, Painkiller, Bushwacker or Lime & Coconut anywhere on that bar. The Virgin Islands celebrates every Good Friday with seven hours of sobriety. No booze sales at bars and restaurants from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. Favorite bartender Boo is busy serving up bottled water today instead. (Watch Boo make a Lime & Coconut here!)

    I thought maybe the correct answer to “What’s wrong with this picture?” is that Jeff is not wearing a backwards baseball cap. If that’s not you Jeff in the lower right hand corner of the picture… it sure looks like you…

    The problem I see is there is no TV so customers can watch the NCAA Basketball Tournament!!!
    But then again, who would watch TV when they could be catching monster waves on the north shore beaches??!!

    Good thing we don’t visit during Easter weekend. That whole “dry” bar thing would not go over well.

    So good to see Boo again. Tell her “hey” from Pete and Marcia.

    We’re back there soon!

    The only other “dry day” on St. John is election day. You have been warned!

    There was plenty or warning on island– we saw flyers posted everywhere. Guess they know how much we all like our beverages. We were forced to wait it out on the beach with a 6-pack and a pitcher of rum punch (purchased the day before). We do what we have to…
