Saint Barth Summer 2011 – Day 12

Very sunny and hot morning today, this afternoon, heavy rains, so a very long nap for the whole family!

Now sitting on the terrace with a Romeo y Julieta & a Rhum Vanille, a lot of lightnings on the ocean, but without rain till now, listening to U2/The Joshua Tree.

Life is good :-)

This morning, we were first at the Corossol beach. Really marvelous again, but a very tiny beach actually. So, after a while, we decided to go back to Saline… Pffuuu, again fantastic colors, some funny waves to play with my son.

Saint Barth Summer 2011 – Day 10

Again a very hot and sunny day, this time … with a lot of seaweeds on Flamands beach. Still very calm and clear, but on the "right side" of the beach (near the hotel Isle de France). The other side was really full of seaweeds… This is something new for us at Saint Barth. No jellyfish but seaweeds this year!

Saint Barth Summer 2011 – Day 8

Wow, that was a super sunny warm day :-) Definitely warmer now than in February, outch! And definitely much more mosquitos as ever!

Seems that we are really lucky with the weather as June/July was quite terrible on the island for tourists, not for locals and their water citterns, as for the nature! Everything is so green, crazy.

We were today at Lorient beach, long walk on the beach, almost nobody there. Good day ;-)

Saint Barth Summer 2011 – Day 7

Today, rain showers followed by very sunny and hot periods, a kind of real tropical weather wow ;-) Direct Consequence of the weather: a visit to Shell Beach!

We had a well organized event on the beach: the 2nd day of a Victoria Secret’s shooting on the beach with Erin Heatherton, oulàlà :-) Quite funny as we could also follow the typical "paparazzi" trying to get some interesting pictures from far away with his huggge zoom lens…

On the other side, very cool colors with the cloudy/rainy sky and the beautiful transparent ocean there!

Saint Barth Summer 2011 – Day 6

Another hot & sunny day! "Family" beach today, i.e. the whole morning at Saint Jean Pelican. Very quiet actually, with less families with kids as in February/March. Tomorrow (Wednesday) should be a rainy day… Good for shopping, let’s see!

Saint Barth Summer 2011 – Day 5

Wonderful day, sunny, hot, the right day for Colombier ;-) It was just great, specially early in the morning (we were on the beach at about 08:20).

The walk was … different, as everything is super green!

The ocean was very calm with almost no swell, i.e. the underwater visibility was very high, pictures later this week.
