St Lucia Island Tour St Lucia’s best places to visit are near the southern end of the island.  What would take hours by car or bus only takes a few minutes to travel by water taxi.  While in St Lucia we had an island tour from Solomon’s Water...

Swamps and Alligators

When my husband, Brian, first told me that he wanted to take the girls on a Honey Island Swamp tour, I thought he was nuts!  Snakes and alligators are cool to look at behind a glass; but, to be in the wild in their habitat was a little unnerving… okay frightening! ...

The Western US was won on the backs of many pioneers & handcarts.  It’s amazing what they endured.  Experience it for yourself in Historic Nauvoo, Ill.  I’ve visited “old towns” and pioneer villages before.  This size and quality of this...

Bathsheba Beach

Friar’s Bay

by | Jul 7, 2013 | Adventure, Beach, Caribbean, Video

Sheltered family-friendly beach.  Friar’s Bay is a great place to swim with clear waters.  It’s usually not crowded.  There are two bars/restaurants.  Arguably the best beach on St Martin (both sides).  The sand itself isn’t your typical white-sand...
