Smile And some pics of our honeymoon...

St. John is really a spectacular place, with the most beautiful, clear water on the planet, IMHO. I highly, highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys fish, snorkeling, or just gazing at a beautiful beach and feeling the sense of overwhelming inner peace that comes with it...

Here are some pics:
1 - Hub and me at the Trunk Bay overlook, St. John
2 - Philip windsurfing at Cinnamon Bay (look at that water, so pretty!!)
3 - White Bay Beach, Jost Van Dyke (BVI, different island)
4 - Another of White bay beach - I think this is the most beautiful beach in the world. The water is electric blue - takes your breath away. You get there by boat from St. John, a nice day cruise w/ snorkeling.

We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors....but they all exist very nicely in the same box. ...Hmmm? .

Not fair to show those pictures on a morning before going to work when it rains in NYC ....
Seriously, this looks amazing, I am a sucker for the turquoise waters and the
white sand ( I windsurf as well). I have never been to St Johns but your photos definitely make me want to go.

Very Nice pictures Becky! It looks like wonderful and peaceful place. I can't wait for my Cyprus vacation...I hate being all day stuck between the four walls of my office. There is nothing more relaxing than being out there enjoying the nature

St John's is definitely magnificent and the snorkeling the best!

Those are some excellent pictures. Lovely colour that water has, well worth jumping in.

Firstly congratulations Becky! You two make a beautiful couple...

as for the white sands and blue turquoise green colour of the water... well... what an awesome place to build those memories!

my only concern is... where are those daiquiris or margaritas?
