So many new stores that weren't there on our yearly visits. St Thomas will come back.
I hope more will be done to attract hotel and villa rental tourists. They enjoy the beauty of the island and spread the dollars around. While I love the cruise ships, more and more their on board shops are selling the same product as the island shops.
I have never seen the streets empty of people the times I've been there. So sad.
