With your grandkids onboard there is no question except to go to Levick on Friday for the BBQ and The Jumbies, which they will love. Stopping at the Dogs is always dependable on the weather, but if you make an early start, then The Baths is a great place to visit. Bear in mind that this is a busy weekend in BVI, especially North Sound with the Poker Run taking place on Sunday. Check out their website for details. Lots of fast boat throughout the islands, but they come and go very quickly! Sand Box is an ideal stop for lunch as is Saba Rock, though others may chip in here. There are always very mixed reviews of Pussers at Marina Cay. If conditions are good, Cooper has excellent food or Last Resort, Bellamy Cay in Trellis Bay could be another option. Always be flexible and keep your options open. You're on vacation and weather and sea conditions must be taken into account. Are you intending to have all meals ashore?

Also, the 14th annual Leverick Bay Poker Run is on Sunday, May 25. Check out the website ( web page) and consider if it is something your group would like to be in the midst of, or enjoy from a bit of a distance. It starts and ends at Leverick Bay, and makes stops along the south shore of Tortola, West End, Norman Island, and Virgin Gorda Yacht Harbor. A really fun event for a good cause.

Found this link http://mitsloan.mit.edu/mfin/program-components/personalized-curriculum/academic-calendar/ Click on the MIT ACADEMIC CALENDAR link. Looks like grad date is 05 June, finals week is 18-22 May. My take/hope is that the invasion is post graduation as I'm down 21-28 May with a group of newbies, and I'd hate to have that be an experience for them. With that said, its easy enough to plan around them should you have the pleasure of encountering said flotilla.

The beauty of being on the dock is that everyone can come and go as they please vs having to dinghy in. It's very convenient and hard to beat the price.

You won't be able to miss us. Trust me. Will probably be flying a large Texas flag. It will be me, my 19 yo "Hey Dad, I can drink in the BVI's" son, my 22 yo "yeah, so what, I can drink in the U.S." son, and my terrified wife.
