We didn’t take a LOT of pictures, but we took a few. Here are my favorites:

This doesn’t really capture how beautiful the beach was, but you get a little sense of the turquoise water and the lovely weather.

And you can see why I had to be Extremely Responsible to keep my sun exposure minimal. I stayed under the umbrellas the entire time, except when splashing around or walking to and from the ladies room.

Here we are at a "Lolo" — an outdoor barbeque place in Grand Case.

As you can see, my sunscreen efforts weren’t 100% successful. That was the day I stayed indoors most of the day to let the sunburn heal, and after that, I switched to the waterproof sunscreen and limited my time in the water to only ~15 minutes, maybe twice/day.

All I have to add is OUCH.

And last, but not least, here are the 4 of us after dinner on our last night.

Mikki & Claire were so sweet — they took us out for my birthday. We ate at a fabulous romantic restaurant, with seats along the waterfront in the marina in Marigot. And my sweet girl gave me the rose and all that bling I’m wearing.

(If you look closely, you can see that the necklace symbolizes the new family — two pink stones surrounding a blue stone.)
