Question of the month: What’s your favorite holiday and why?
My favorite holiday was fairly recent, October 2011. It was our second trip to the Caribbean Islands but this time my sister and her husband joined us (which made the trip even more fun – wink, wink sis).
I know I said I was going to share pictures of our trip back in October but I clearly forgot.
The highlight of the trip for me was Barbados. We went to the same beach this time around. What made it so amazing? Turtle hatching! Right next to our towels. It was absolutely amazing to see those little creatures make their way to the sea. At least 100 of them. Words can’t describe how fascinating it was to see them emerge from the sand (after 20 min of searching I can’t find the best capture of the hatching).
Here are a few pictures from the trip.
Aren’t they adorable

St. Maarten
Coolest tree (St. Lucia)
Thanks for reading!
Visiting the caribbean islands sounds amazing! Wish we had gone there pre-kiddies…so want to lie on a hot gorgeous beach with some great reading and lots of icy drinks! Thanks for sharing your pics! Love your pre-dinner pic- very sophisticated !
Thanks Ella! I just love beach vacations, kick back and relax
so many turtlesss!!
this sight is amazing.
there are a ton, we stopped counting after a while
I love how you interpreted "holiday" to mean a vacation. Where Skylette interpreted it to mean "National Holiday."
These pictures make me miss the beach! I need a relaxing vacation…-AJfittraveleraj.blogspot.com
Funny, before I moved to States "holiday" is what we called vacation in Europe, so it always stuck with me
Wow, what an incredible vacation Lilly! The baby turtles are magnificent, how cool you were there for that. I love the tree also-you should instagram that one and the one with your pretty toes on the beautiful beach
It was so beautiful! Didn't think of instagram lol
Gorgeous! I used to live on Sint Maarten. Your pictures make me miss it!

The little turtles! What a cool thing to witness! The islands look gorgeous. I think I would love it there
The pictures of the turtle hatching makes me turn to mush inside. What a miraculous little thing. And the instinct to just make their way to the sea? Fascinating!
How stinkin cool and cute are those little turtles. How sad the statistics are on the number that will make it
OMGOSH i die over those little turtles! AMAZING!
Those turtles….so CUTE!!! Did you just want to hold one in your hand and cuddle with it?? lolNikkiFashionsonthefly.blogspot.com
The joke in our house is that my dream job is to work for the Sea Turtle Patrol. Love it! xoxo
I have a huge obsession with turtles and seeing the turtles hatch is on my bucket list. So jealous! Thanks for the pictures.
