If we had boatloads of money to spend this weekend and still wanted to celebrate the Fourth we would head to the U.S. Virgin Islands.

Not to miss out on an Independence Day celebration (they are still U.S. territory after all...) the islands host a week long affair complete with everything from donkey races to a mango melee. The third is their Emanicipation Day and they do their take on the Fourth with a Carnival style party and a parade and beach jam on St. John.

Hm. Something tells us that we wouldn't really miss the hot dogs and sparklers if we had a mai tai and a steel drum band.
