Never to old for the romance of St Lucia !!

!!!!We decided we needed a relaxing break , so chose this wonderfully romantic resort of Rendevous on St Lucia in the West Indies.

Flying over the St. Lucia capital, Castries, as we come into land,  This is the islands second airport and can only handle inter island turbo prop aircraft.


Castries appears to be fairly run down and a bit delapidated but the public  buildings are well maintained.  This building is the public library.

 

Long beaches of soft white sands with very salty water which is wonderful to float in and almost the temp. of bathwater  -  :)



The resort  - named Rendezvous has it's dining terrace on the beach




Plenty of sports - kayaking, hobby sailing, snorkeling, scuba diving, archery, golf clinic ..........&&& and plenty of sunloungers and hammocks .. what more could one want?
Fantastic food, wonderful rum cocktails and evening entertainment

  
We enjoyed the beach as it is one of the things that Angela misses as we are around1800km (1250miles)from the ocean

Rendezvous is a wonderful resort for couples only,
the grounds add to the beautiful experience.

 

Locals fishing






We are back in Pembroke Pines for the week, All good things must come to an end  -  Who says that ?!
although we are really enjoying R & V hospitality
This sunrise view was at 7.15 , from R & V backyard


This attractive butterfly was in the back yard - 6"  /15cms wingspan
