CBP Roam
Has any one used the CBP ROAM app in the USVI’s? Will be returning from BVI to USVI’s and it certainly seems like the way to go to get through customs.

Re: Budget Be Damned
Interesting evaluation. Thanks for sharing. Wondered if you could share your reasons for exceeding your budget. Unforeseen events, miscalculations, or other? Anything you would do differently?
