Travelvision International: St. Thomas/St. John

The first 20 minutes of this short tape are devoted to a brief overview of the history of the islands and an absolutely scattershot approach to the sights and activities found there. This is followed by a short reference guide to hotels, restaurants, and special activities, all of which are quite obviously paid advertisements. The final section of the program offers travel tips on currency, driving laws, buying duty-free goods, and tipping service. The higher price, shorter running time, and dumb jokes about "virgin" bathing beauties [these are the Virgin Islands, get it? Neither did we.] make this a marginal purchase, at best. Other titles include: Amsterdam, Cairo, Cancun, Guatemala, Hawaii, Ireland, Jamaica, Paris, and Northern Saskatchewan, among others. (Available from the larger distributors such as NORSTAR and Sallyforth).
