Bruce and I did a Caribbean cruise on our first vacation back in 2003. One of the places we visited was St Lucia. We both loved it more than any other place we went. We said we would come back for our honeymoon (yeah, that's IF we ever get married!) and stay at Sandals.
I was so excited to see your photos of your amazing trip. Thank you so much for sharing with us. And congrats on your wedding.

I have over 300 pics, so here are a few more to view.

I'm adding this pic so you can see my whole dress here.....I really loved this dress. I actually packed it in the luggage and it arrived fine! And, I purchased it for $99! Deal!

A girl who worked at the resort fell in love with it. I surprised her when I was leaving by giving her the dress! She almost started to cry. The resort is in a very poor part of town and I'm sure she can't make much working at this resort so she can either use it or sell it. I'd rather give the dress to someone who will made use of it rather than have it hang in my closet and collect dust!

The wedding assistant told me to stop in order to take a pic & I was taking a step so my legs look awkward.


The path leading to our villa - you can see how lush the surroundings are in this pic


Now some pics of the villa that we rented. It's called the Frangipani Villa and it really is one of the best one's at the resort. We only had one neighbour to our left and there was a deep ravine on the other side of us.



Our pool lit up at night.


The villa had a series of wooded shutters that had a screen on the outside. So, at night, you could keep all the shutters open to get an amazing breeze. The only problem? The sounds of the rainforest was loud! We brought earplugs but by the second night I loved hearing it.


Continued in next post......

I told you earlier that we are on the side of the mountain....so check out how steep the roads are - driving here is not for the faint of heart and you want to always make sure your brakes are in working order!


Some great pottery was scattered around the pool area


And there were fruit trees everywhere. Here are some new bananas. Did you know that a banana plant can only bear fruit once? Then it is chopped down to let another plant grow from its base. The fruit takes approximately 7-8 months to grow......I didn't know that! The local bananas taste way better than the one's we get at home.



Food was always good and they use all homemade ingredients and garden veggies. Their pancakes were to die for - Banana, Mango or Cinnamon. Rob would always order a double order.


More sunset pics.



Also, we watched some beautiful ships pass by our place.....
