Okay, then, how about some place interesting that most of the tours don't take you to?

Conrad, do you have the recipe for the famous banana daiquiri that they serve at Mountaintop? I'm gonna get me one when we are there in October.

Now I can say my house, but that's not it. I would say the University of the Virgin Islands....Why, it was a base for I think the Navy or the Army, not to sure but it has some underground bunkers that are now class rooms, and the clinic was the place where the dead was place or the furneral home, and it is said that at nights you will hear noises in the building and no one around, so that would be one of a few places.

I worked in the bar at the Ritz and we use Banana, Cruzan rum and ice blended together.... that's it, but you can buy the mix at Mountaintop.

Now, that's interesting, Conrad!
I seem to remember reading a little about that somehwere, sometime... but not that last part!

Have you ever been there at night? Or do you know anyone who has?

nealberk · 06-26-2008, 01:13 AM

I wonder how much confidence it instills in the people who go to the clinic?

My wife Aunt worked as a nurse at the clinic, and that's how I found out about the noises at night.

Wow - was she ever there at night? did she hear any noises? What kind of noises are they?

Yes she worked at nights, and she would hear like doors closeing and opening, not like she would hear talking or toilet flushing or anything like that, but a door open and close, and no body was there.

oh, boy. Bet that was a really unsettling feeling. Were the door sounds close by her or more distant?
