The day after Thanksgiving Paul and I hopped on a red-eye to Newark, NJ to begin our week long vacation to St. Lucia. It was a long night and travel day, but the journey was well worth it. A week of relaxation, sun and absolutely no plans was just what we needed. I brought along my vlog camera and captured footage throughout the week (some more days than other) so I am excited to throw together a few vlogs to remember our trip. Quick PSA: By no means do I think I am a YouTuber with my very mediocre vlogging skills, editing quality (hello iMovie) and non-copyrighted music downloaded from YouTube. I create these videos as a way for me and Paul to look back on and YouTube is the easiest way to store and share them. It also allows me to have more content for my blog that I forget about 😉
This first vlog documents our travel day and first full day of vacation. We stayed at the Sandals La Grande resort, which was about a 1.5 hour drive from the airport. The only non-stop flights to the Caribbean from Denver are to the Bahamas and Cayman Islands, so we had a connecting from in NJ on the way there and NYC on the way home. The travel time was 16-17 hours from when we left our house to setting foot on the resort, so we were quite sleepy. With that, enjoy the vlog!
PS: I also plan on doing separate blog posts featuring a few reviews on the resort and first class on United and JetBlue’s Mint.
