Day #1 - Anguilla 2011

Last Friday, Adam and I (and about 40 other co-workers and their guests) left for the tropical paradise of Anguilla. When I mention the name of the island to people, they usually reply, "Where?" So let's give a little geography lesson...
Anguilla is in the Caribbean, closely located to St. Maartin, where we arrived when we flew from Houston to Miami to STM, then took a 19 minute ferry ride to Anguilla. And if you watch The Bachelor, they were recently on this lovely island.


This is St. Maartin from our boat. Specifically the French side. Not the Dutch side.
And while we are on that subject, I haven't seen that many Dutch people (I call them, "My People") (not really) since the last Holland Festival I went to at Redlands Christian when I was 8 years old.

easy, breezy --

the first views on the resort, Viceroy Anguilla.
This is also on the previous post, but from a much better camera.

Our first evening is a formal (or as formal as the islands get!) night. The setting was poolside, and the pool is beachside... so basically, it was just amazing.

And that concludes the first day... I expect to get many, many more pictures from others who took a lot more time taking pictures with their expensive cameras. We decided to leave that responsibility to them, and took more time enjoying ourselves! :)
