Awesome question Vicki,

But I have so many things that I can't give just one :lol:

I guess it is the beauty & tranquility of the Island.

2) Walking down the stairs at Trunk Bay gradually in the morning so you see more and more of the crystal-clear, calm, turquoise water with each step.

UGH...I LOVE "drunk" shopping in Cruz Bay too...sooo damn fun...GOOD one...

Maho Bay.

Just to the west of that old shack under one of those two trees by the black stones. That is my spot.

This is an easy one for me. Going with pianogrl's theme. Early to Salomon, get the two palms, set up shop,snorkel early, catch a booze buzz later in the day hangin under those wondeful palms with the honey enjoying the gorgeous views and realizing how damn lucky we are to be able to do this.
Boy I crammed alot in that sentence :lol:

A calm day at Brown's Bay, with a snorkel and just sitting in the water watching the big yachts go by.

Early evening at Trunk. Like being in a movie.

Since my list is about 1000 things long I'll go with a memory.

2 Novembers ago, sitting on the barely there little tiny strip of Jumbie Beach with my hubby. It was so narrow due to the winter swell that we had to hang out flip-flops in a tree. Toes in the sand, sitting in the early morning quiet with my hubby, having left the kids and all of our other traveling companions at the house. We just sat, in silence, for about an hour or so. Both feeling and thinking the exact same thing. How can we make this a permanent reality?
