I know Castries. Got lots of family there.
Glad you're liking it.

It was nice we actually got to walk downtown and then have diner, then the next crew got in which the FO was my college roomate. It was fun actually having time to relax, have diner, along with a few adult beverages. But most overnights are 9-10 hours of rest at best.
As far as schedules are in SJU, they really stunk for December. Probably the worst since I have been hear. I still can't hold 4 day trips and have 2 day back to back trips. There is actually a lot of local FO's. They bid for just about everything except the 4 days trips. The 4 days trips usually go to the senior first year FO's. But I have been down here since april and can't hold them. But a lot of guys ahead of me are goin to the jet the next month.

Hopefully things will get better for you soon, man. Sounds like you're enjoying it, though. What other islands have you had the opportunity to overnight?
