B A R B A D O S
Barbados wasn't my favorite island. I would by lying if I said it was.
It was really pretty, but the natives were so overwhelming, you had to walk forever to get some peace and quiet!
Today we got off the boat and headed to find a taxi.
Right from the beginning you are bombarded by taxi drivers screaming at each other trying to get their vans full! It seriously felt like we were fresh meat and they hadn't eaten in weeks.
Although the taxi ride was stressful, this view made up for it.
Unfortunately, it was 2 seconds of bliss before we were surrounded by people asking to rub aloe vera on our bodies! We ended up ignoring them and getting on our snorkeling gear as quick as possible! They told us that if we swim out pretty far, we would be able to see S E A T U R T L E S!
So we did, and were able to see 3 of them!
They were my favorite thing to see while snorkeling!
Such magnificent creatures!
Upon our arrival back at the beach,
Shawn told us that if we walk a little ways down,
we wouldn't be surrounded by so many people.
So we did and basically had our own private beach!
If you ask Michael what his favorite part of the trip was, he would tell you it was snorkeling! We couldn't keep this kid away for more than 10 minutes! He loved it so much!
His back was the only thing that burned from being above the surface of the water most of the time! He was like a little kid! Cutest thing ever!
Finally some peace and quiet on our own little beach.
This is where we would spend the majority of our evenings.
We had given up on the shows at this point and were completely content spending our time here!
Basically if we weren't dancing at the club, we were disturbing the peace with random outbursts of frustration!
