East Winds Inn

The place is glorious. Green everywhere you can see. Blue ocean. Sand. Wonderful.

We are staying in small cottages with a porch and a huge bathroom. The bed is a king and we luckily have air conditioning and a fan, so sleeping is comfortable. We unfortunately have tons of noise in the background...birds, insects, frogs...something a city girl like me is not used to. But it's so worth it to be here. Even the massive amounts of moscitos are worth it.

We arrived during a sunny afternoon, and went straight to check out the pool and beach. The pool water is perfect -not too sunny, not too cold. And there's a self-serve bar right there. One guy made us some brilliant rum punches that first afternoon. Then there's the beach. There are two sides and we tend to stay on the left side...it feels more intimate somehow. And there's a bar there with a bartender or two to make your drink wishes come true. I've enjoyed their specials of the day!

Meals are held in an open air restaurant. Cool breezes flow through, with small finches joining us in hopes of gaining a few crumbs or two. Cheeky little things they are! But we start the evening in the open air clubhouse where we are served champagne or any cocktail we want. What's great is that this is all inclusive! So we eat and drink what we want.

We went scuba diving on Tuesday and R. really loved it. I think he'd like to end up getting certified some day. I'd love it if he would. We'll see if he can do the beginner part in London and then we'll do a course somewhere warm. The place down south of the island where we scuba'd and snorkled was quite beautiful...overlooking the Pitons.

Tomorrow we go on a sailing trip down to the south of the island...this time we'll bring the camera. Can't wait to post pics.

Well...that's it for now. Back to the honeymoon. And sun!
