It is well documented that Vice President Joe Biden loves St. Croix. He sometimes makes multiple visits to the island annually, and it has become somewhat of a tradition for the U.S. governments second in command to ring in the New Year on the Big Island.
This year is no exception, as Mr. Biden and his wife Jill landed at the Henry E. Rholsen Airport on Tuesday afternoon. His arrival was made abundantly clear by the heightened police presence and the sightings of Secret Service vehicles.
The Bidens, arriving from the vice presidents hometown of Wilmington, Delaware, will be on St. Croix until Jan. 2, according to the White House (via New York Post).
