bmdlover Posted November 4, 2008 #1 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Thanksgiving is the day the Crown Princess will be in St. Thomas. Since it is a US territory, do they observe the holiday? Will shops be open? TIA Marianne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribsun Posted November 4, 2008 #2 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Charlotte Amalie Store HoursMonday through Saturday, including Holidays: 9am-5pm Sunday Hours: While Sunday hours are usually half day, closing time 1pm; there are exceptions created by the number of ships in port. When there are no ships in port, some stores won't open at all. If there are several ships in port some stores might stay open until 3pm. Note: Stores in Charlotte Amalie all unanimously close during the Children's and Adult's Carnival Parades. The parade route is along Main Street and the parades last all day. They usually take place during the last Friday and Saturday of April or the first Friday and Saturday of May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Islander Posted November 13, 2008 #6 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Yes on Sundays and holidays often residents get together at the beach for picnics and parties. Magens is popular for this; so is Coki, Brewers and Lindquist. --Islander Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmdlover Posted November 18, 2008 Author #7 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Will the Safari buses be running on Thanksgiving? :confused: Marianne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Islander Posted November 24, 2008 #8 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Likely not as many as a non-holiday since some folks are off from work, kids off from school so less demand plus some drivers might take the day off to be with family/friends. But some will be running. --Islander Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marksgirl Posted March 20, 2009 #9 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Does anyone know if the day before Thanksgiving is busy at Lindquist and Brewers? My fiance and I were hoping to get married at Lindquist November 25, 2009 which is the day before Thanksgiving. Not sure if many of the beach parties would be going on that day or more so on Thanksgiving day. Any input would be really appreciated. Thanks!

The Islander Posted April 10, 2009 #10 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Hello Marksgirl, there may be some additional people at Lindquist and Brewers the day before Thanksgiving but its not a holiday. Thanksgiving is the holiday and the day after a lot of people take off too. --Islander Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
