My boyfriend and I recently got back from a week long vacation in the Caribbean. It was gorgeous. We stayed on the Dutch side of St. Maarten and lounged by the crystal clear turquoise water, went on some hikes, explored and shopped. We also snorkeled and saw sea turtles, barracuda (almost peed my pants), string ray, and eagle ray, jellyfish and tons of other Caribbean fish. So freakin cool.
