Update: Eco-vacation in the Virgin Islands

Hi folks!  We're back from vacation and back to life.  I thought you'd like to check out a few pictures from our stay at Maho Bay Camps on St. John, USVI.  I would recommend Maho to anyone looking for a serene, simple vacation and who is concerned about the impact that big resorts have on the environment.  Maho does its best to conserve resources, recycles glass and paper through craft projects (recycling services are not available on the island) and uses elevated walkways and structures to reduce its impact on the surrounding landscape.  The attitude is laid back and focused on the outdoors and a simple way of life.  This is not a resort for the spring-breaker looking for a week of partying but is perfect for families and anyone else looking to avoid that type of experience.  In short it was a wonderful week of hiking, snorkeling, kayaking, swimming and true relaxation.
