Week-end Getaway: St. Barts

We returned to St. Barts
for a week-end getaway

Nathan Relaxed
Reasons for returning:
a) from where we are it's a pretty easy travel
b) we had some unfished business
(beaches not seen, pasties not eaten)
c) it is my ideal place


The stars really lined up for us to arrive on the first boat.
We had not a minute to spare
before we would have missed the boat from
St.Martin to Gustavia, St.Barts.

Gustavia, St.Barts
In order to make our boat
and to keep things simple
we traveled with only a carry-on each
Doing so we sacraficed our computers.
It is amazing how addicted to our computers we each are.
It was a good experiment to be unplugged for a few days.
It turns out.
In the right setting
It's not that hard after all.

Gustavia, St. Barts
 We stayed right downtown Gustavia
and had a great waterfront view of the harbor
We enjoyed many nice morning and evening walks along the water front
and various beaches around the island.  
Although we weren't that great at taking pictures...oops
 
Our car :)





The Beach and Baguette's ='s Perfection

 
More beaches: Anse des Flamandes
 
Hello Franklin!

Look at those cute little feet!



 St. Jean beach
is at the end of the runway



 This rope is the barrier between
having fun at the beach and airplanes.

Happiness*

It was the perfect weekend getaway
We LOve St. Bart's
and hope to visit again someday.
