[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I grew up in Richmond and babysat for several families that belonged to CCV and sent their kids to St. Catherine's/St. Christophers. It was absolutely true that they only visit certain east coast beaches in the summer and travel to certain Caribbean islands in the winter. Interestingly enough none of these families traveled nearly as often as people on DCUM do, despite being textbook "old money."[/quote]

Which beaches and islands?

St. Barts must be one

We had a trip planned to St. Martin once (which was really nice) and this upper class snobby lady I know scoffed and said, for that area, it’s only worth going to St. Bart’s or nothing. How unbelievably rude. It’s couldn’t believe it. Who writes off an entire country anyway?[/quote]

Summer beaches - Kiawah or Sea Island. (The OP is what reminded me of this.)

Winter - the ones I remember are: Anguilla, St. Barths, St. Croix, St. John

Some of them skied out west but I don’t remember that being as big of a thing.[/quote]

As someone who deals a good bit with the St. C’s crowd, this is accurate and made me chuckle. Just don’t forget to throw in the Outer Banks too for summer.[/quote]
