Yesterday, the kids and I had a fun day out on a boat charter. We went with a group of student friends of Dave's. We got on the boat at 7:30 and got yummy croissants and quiche on the boat before we left. We left from the lagoon so we had to make it to Marigot by 8:30 when the bridge went up. I've never been on the side of being in the water for once instead of being in the car waiting for the bridge to come down! So that was a fun difference!
We then sailed for 2 1/2 hours to a little island off of St Maarten called Tintamarre. Once there we swam and played on the beach and also got a great mud bath! This is my third time to the island so my 3rd mud bath...but its so great and makes your skin so soft! Even Reece got into the spirit and put on the mud! The other two weren't so interested!
After sometime on the island we swam back to the boat for a yummy lunch prepared by the crew of the boat. After lunch we headed to Creole Rock, where the boys and I snorkeled. We saw lots of cool fish, and Carter thought it was "Awesome" and he so badly wanted to do it again! Reece got to help drive the boat! He thought that was so awesome and definitely his favorite time of the day!
After snorkeling we continued on to one last swim spot, where we all just relaxed and had some nice fruit for a snack. Then it was back to Marigot to catch the bridge going up again! It was a long day and we all got a bit toasty but we had a great day! The only thing that could have made it better was if Dave could have gone..but he was studying as usual! But break is only 4 weeks away and then we can do some fun stuff all together!
