We got delayed in Miami, we will catch a ride home tomorrow morning. We slept in the airport, not the brightest idea for someone with a bad back. We got home this morning around 1000.
My hubby, after being laid off two years ago and re hired, came in top 14 in sales and won this amazing trip. We were off to St Lucia, just me and the hubbs. We stayed at the Sugar Beach resort that rests between two volcanos called the Pitons. We had the most amazing time and I was pampered in ways I could not have begun to imagine. We resided in a true paradise for a few days and experienced breathtaking views at every turn. We were immersed in the West Indies culture. This is an experience I will treasure forever.
The hubbs company truly went all out for their top sales people. We received gifts daily, whether it was new Ray Bans or new flip flops or gift cards, there was always something. We enjoyed excursions: deep sea fishing, snorkeling, or the spa. We had lavish dinner receptions and all day cocktails provided beach and pool side.
On one of our boat tours around the island we got a little history lesson from two local fisherman. They shared the history of the island and some salacious tells of some Hollywood stories. Mat Damon reserved the entire resort for his family one time and even bought out the local fisherman for a week to keep the beach private. They showed us the resort where several episodes of The Bachelor were filmed. They also showed us a bat cave where thousands of fruit bats lived. According to our guides they use bat guano (poo) to make mascara. Our guides said, "you have to get shitty to get pretty." Mick Jagger, Oprah Winfrey, and George Forman also have homes in St Lucia. That is all for the Hollywood news.
It is going to be very hard to go back to my regular life. The hustle and bustle of taking care of two growing boys and holding down the house hold. I will hold this last week in my mind forever.
