Since both my vacation days and my vacation funds are already spoken for during 2007, my inner traveler has now begun planning trips for 2008. And I've come up with what could quite possibly be the best one, EVER!! Departing December 26th, 2008, off we go to celebrate New Year's in St. John, USVI!! Are you so excited that you can't even stand it, cause I TOTALLY am!!
I'm not talking about some fancy vacation where we're going to stay at The Westin, St. John, although it is quite lovely. No, we're thinking more along the lines of the Cinnamon Bay Campground where we can, at least for a week or two, live the authentic island life! I want to lay on the beach, eat at all of the whole in the wall shacks, and drink the homemade rum at places like Foxy's (BVI's) and pound beers at Woody's, and drive a Jeep around the island on the wrong side of the road! We're going to take day trips over to the BVI's and experience the tranquility that these islands are.
Oh, and in case you were wondering why we're going over New Year's? Are you freakin serious? Foxy's is home to one helluva NYE party! A two day NYE party! (And Foxy suggests a third day for recovery!) They say the biggest amusement on New Year's Day is watching all of the hungover people searching for their dinghy's out in the water. People, I can't wait! And I'm pretty sure there'll be tears when Foxy and I actually meet. Seriously, read this to get a glimpse of who Foxy is and how he lives. Amazing, truly amazying!
You might be surprised to learn that I, Miss spoiled brat who gets freaked out by bugs who's afraid of the dark and can't stand dirt, is ECSTATIC about a vacation like this, but honestly, simply thinking of this vacation puts my soul at ease. I could totally live the island life...forever! Don't be surprised if I shack up with the locals and refuse to come home, cause I'm seriously considering it!
And while you might be wondering what the title of this post has to do with the actual post itself, let me fill you in on what's on the horizon: Kenny Vacation, Kenny again, Girls cruise to the Bahamas, Florida trip with the kids, Key West, USVI's and BVI's...seriously, I'm a pretty happy, travelin' kind of girl!
