Back from St Barth 

So, we are back since last Friday. As usual, the “landing” is quite difficult after 2 weeks on this incredible island. And not just because of the jet lag…

I would like to share with you 8 pictures from our trip. And no, I don’t know why 8, but it sounds good ;-)

 

From Guadeloupe to Saint Barth, beautiful lights

Saint Barth - Last day in paradise... 

So, it is our last day on Saint Barth, our "paradise" (kind of ;-). No better beach to finished as Saint Jean Bay! And we could observe two sea-turtles for quite a long time during our last snorkeling-session. Beautiful gift, actually :-)

This evening, back to Pointe-à-Pitre (Guadeloupe), and then back to Paris tomorrow. Long trip!

See you on the other side!

Just finishing my cigar near the swimming-pool (Davidhoff Robusto Millennium Blend). About one day left before the flight back...

Again, a stiched picture from the villa. From left to right, you can see some of St Barth islands:
- Ile Fourchue
- Ile Bonhomme
- Ile de Boulanger
- Ile Pelé
- Ile Frégate
- Ile Toc Vers
- La Tortue
- Les Grenadiers

And completely behind, you should see (?) the Saint Martin island.

And a second picture, taken directly from the beach.

Saint Barth - The king of the beaches (1/2) 

After the usual 20' walk with the fabulous view on "Petite Anse", we were at the Colombier Beach today.

Really the mostly beautiful beach of the island, with great snorkeling sessions!

Two pictures for Colombier, I think this should be ok ;-)

Saint Barth - Saint Jean Bay, the other side 

Today, Saint Jean Bay, but the other side!

No snorkeling but the colours there are just terrific.

Again at Saint Jean Bay today :-)

We've seen another beautiful sea-turtle, really "flying" in the ocean. Fantastic!

Saturday evening, we are in Saint Barth, we will have our dinner at the Eden Rock (best dinner ever in St Barth there in February). I am lucky, I know, I appreciate. Life can be really cool sometimes :-)

Take care!
