We love the brunch at The Breakers so every few years we decide to stay there and indulge. The Breakers is a beautiful hotel very elegant, and the people who work there are friendly. They have a bar that is a fish tank which is cool and different.
Today we flew to Aspen, Colorado for our annual ski trip. Our friend Nano Lopez was meeting us there which was cool. I absolutely love Aspen. This was the first time we were there and it will be added to our yearly ski trip.
We normally go to Utah but we figured to branch out and add Colorado to our itinerary as well.
John and I both grew up in New York and we have never seen the ball drop in person so this was a HUGE thing for us to do! It should be on everyone’s bucket list. You hear all the stories and you see it on TV how the pens are filled up and how you can’t get out of the pen once you are in it so to see it in person was something else.
We had the best time and met some really great people. We will do this again one day!
Today John and I rented a car and drove around St. John’s. We saw this pretty church called St. George and then we drove to the Devil’s Bridge. We then drove to Our Lady of Perpetual Help on the way to the rainforest. After driving through the rainforest, we drove back to St. John’s Harbor.
Today we grabbed a cab, and he drove us to Harrison’s Caves. The tour through the caves was different we were on a tram, and it was about an hour long.
The taxi then picked us up and took us around Barbados he showed us the expensive homes on Sandy Lane where supposedly Rihanna purchased a villa for $22 Million. Afterward, we went back to the ship.
Today we rented a car and what an adventure it was. The roads were very narrow, and they were two-way streets with ditches on either side.
We drove up to this cool hotel called Petite Anse Hotel in St. Mark and had a great lunch. Afterward, we drove through the rainforest and saw the Grand Etang Lake on the way to the rental car place. The whole day was fun and very scenic. It’s a very green lush island, and the people are all really nice!
We were lucky enough to purchase a bunch of fresh spices from this fabulous spice island of the Caribbean.
Today we just decided to walk around Castries and checked it out. Unfortunately, it was raining so we decided to get back on the ship earlier than expected.
Today we decided to take a drive to St. Petersburg to visit a friend of ours.
If you are ever in St. Pete’s make sure you stop and grab a bite to eat at Fresco’s Waterfront Bistro. The food and atmosphere are excellent. Make sure you tell David (The owner) John and Maria from NY sent you!
Next time you see a Banyan Tree you know what you need to do! Tarzan
