Hello all,

 

Just thought Id post from Antigua! Am staying in the Galley Bay at the moment in the St. Johns area of Antigua where we got engaged on the 6th January - 5 years to the day we first went out together! :)

 

Sadly we leave for Barbados tomorrow, I say sadly as, really, this is the nicest hotel and resort Ive ever been on. Really guys if anyone is thinking of going to a classy resort, where everyone is lovely, the food is excellent and your apartment is literally 15 metres from the Carribean Sea the galley bay is the one!

 

We went to the volcano devastated island of Monserratt (sp?) yesterday by helicopter.. breathtaking isnt the word.. the amount of devastation, neglected houses and the mess... there is an airport that has been hit by the eruption, and all that is untouched is about 2 metres of runway! When I get home Ill post the video up, it really has to be seen to be believed. We hit a weather storm also which was.. er, fun. Yeah, imagine that.. stuck on a volcanic island with no mobile and just a credit card and camcorder lol...

 

So far, Ive spotted two Supra's - a grey one and a red one. The antiguans seem to have a penchant for Mitsu Evo's - there are loads of really nice examples out here, and they are well into their bling-bling.. lovely alloys and blacked out windows and chrome... really, really fine examples of cars.

 

Weird too, outside a "house" in the shanty town there was (what appeared to be) a brand new Mercedes SLK convertible! Talk about out of place.

 

BTW if anyone ever goes with Virgin and their Premium Economy dont expect the world. I thought it was a bloody rip off. Had to pay to get into the private lounge, and the leg room was atrocious on the flight especially considering the price.

 

Anyway, Ill try and post back up from Barbados too and give you a review of the place we're staying there (Turtle Beach)!

 

See you all soon!

 

Paul.
