"Perfect Pairs" photo contest
Just to inform you (hope I’m not bothering…) that I’m participating to a photo contest organized by SmugMug and BayPhotoLab with an unusual topic: "Perfect Pairs" (they are celebrating their partnership).
Have a look at the submissions (already 900!), some of them are really good.
I have submitted 3 pictures from our last Winter trip to Saint Barth in February.
I you like one of them, you can help me and vote (comment, Facebook or Twitter) after having clicked on the picture below. And if you don’t like them, just forget this post ;-)

Saint Barth Summer 2011 – Day 15
So, we are back at home, uneventful trip back, all flights on time :-)
We almost couldn’t sleep in the flight Saint Martin – Paris, so now completely jetlagged, arrggghhh….
Last pictures, taken from the plane!
Saint Barth Summer 2011 – Day 14
Wednesday
So, yesterday (Wednesday) was our last full day in Saint Barth, whole morning at Saline, again. Very breezy, quite a lot of seaweeds on the beach, less in the water ;-) Crazy how this evolved within 2 days!
Thursday
Today, we are flying back to France, holidays are over! Almost 24 hours of travel, brrr… We were again at Le Gaiac yesterday evening, just great moment and the right place to "close" our stay in Saint Barth.
Saint Barth Summer 2011 – Day 13
Wow, writing this post from the terrace, protected from the heavy rain showers, eating a banana ice cream from "Le Petit Deauville". So, no beach today, as we went for shopping this morning (very breezy), and had a good lunch at Le Repaire.
Open air cinema
So, back to one event on Sunday evening: we were for the first time at the Open air cinema (AJOE in Lorient), which was a great experience (movie was X-Men the Origins, in French ;-). First you have to take a chair and to choose the place where you want to put your chair, very funny (see below). The sky was enough clear – almost full moon – to see a lot of stars. I was quite disturb by this nice spectacle in the sky beside the movie itself!!
Villa nightly shots
I have also done some pictures by night from the villa in the last days. As a reminder, I took these pictures at 11pm, i.e. it was fully dark ;-)
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 11
Very sunny & hot Sunday, we went for our recurrent "walk on the wild side" of Saint Barth at Toiny.
What for a fantastic and colorful landscape there, wow…
Just m-a-g-i-c.
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!
Seaweeds at Flamands
Crystal clear Flamands
Saint Barth Summer 2011 – Day 9
Again, hot & sunny day.
Gouverneur for the 2nd time, wow, extremely calm ocean, and so crystal clear!
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 ;-)
