Pure Caribbean colors, crazy…

Saint Barth – Part XVII
The garden of our villa is quite interesting. Lots of – for some of them huge! – cactus.
Saint Barth – Part XVI
The villa we have rented is well-positioned, near Pointe-Milou, above the Christopher hotel.
Have a look on the Googlemap below, the villa is marked with an “A”:

Saint Barth – Part XV
Some pictures taken from our snorkeling session in Colombier Bay with a Canon IXUS 700 and a waterproof case WP-DC70. As I have read, it is not so easy to take good pictures underwater… Anyway, a first try!
I have tried to find out what I have seen ;-) Not always 100% sure. So if you see something wrong, please do not hesitate to correct me.

Saint Barth – Part XIV
Surely our favorite beach in Saint Barth, Colombier Bay. You have to walk about 20’ to access the beach, with some fantastic views on the ocean. And there, a marvelous place for snorkeling! Some underwater pictures to come!

Saint Barth – Part XI
The business and financial crisis seems not to have a big impact here in St Barth, at least in the Gustavia’s port. Have a look at the boats. AND some of them cannot enter the port, as they are longer than 62m, which is the max in this harbor…
Saint Barth – Part X
In one week, we had about 5 minutes of rain. But then, it is raining really like cats and dogs!
Tropical shower :-)
Saint Barth – Part IX
And today, Saline Beach, I think the largest in Saint Barth. Very nice actually, we like it a lot! Some pictures and as usual now, a video (a bit longer this time) realized with MS Windows Movie Maker. It is not Adobe Premiere for sure, but not sooo bad for a small sequence.
