Rum Punches & Pina Coladas






Reality, hello it's me Judy I am back....oh poo! What a wonderful trip I had with my girls, it was the most relaxing vacation I probably have ever had.




Lets see, this is how it went...got up around 9am and lathered sun screen all over and put on my bathing suit, we then decided where on the resort we wanted to have breakfast , mostly it was an open air restaurant with white tablecloth's. After breakfast it was a mere few steps to the white powder beach where we would "rest" under the straw cabana's.

fter a swim in the beautiful crystal clear warm water it was time for a cocktail, a rum punch or pina colada perhaps. We enjoyed the kayaks , learned how to sail the little Hobies, snorkeled and loved the boat rides up and down the beach.

Lunch was in one of 16 restaurants in the Beaches Resort and then it was off to swim and "rest" again reading one of the many books I brought. The sun was HOT and we were thankful for the spacious cabanas and cushioned chaises. Our dinner choices were many, Italian,Mexican,French,Japanese and many more. The service every you went was outstanding, it was as if your needs were already anticipated.

...and the chocolate martinis were to die for!

I
t was a fabulous vacation with the girls, lots of laughs. I miss them already as they went back to Massachusetts and I to Tennessee. I would highly recommend the Beaches Resort in Providenciales in Turks & Caicos and I hope to return someday with my family.




Today I will get busy I have a show on Saturday and have lots to get ready. My fingers had a nice respite from wire wrapping and polishing and now are itching to get in my studio to create an island piece.

All packed and ready to go!

My bags are packed and I'm ready to go...Not sure if I should even try to go to sleep tonight since I have to get up at 3:30am and have to be at the airport at 4:30 am....uuuuugh! I am not a morning person so this will be very painful, but then I think of meeting my girls in Miami and heading to Turks & Caicos for some Caribbean bliss. I have packed some fun jewelry to wear and a gift for my girlfriends....a special pair of earrings for each of them. I can't wait to share with you my pictures...until then be well and creative!
