AW: St. Lucia! (PiP & LONG!)

Finally got all my pictures uploaded!! I'm here to unload some AW-y goodness and make you forget about how cold it is outside. If it makes any of you feel better, I am currently suffering from a bit of a cold due to rapid change in climate and a combined 14 hours of air travel. SWEET!!! Beware, this is long....

All piccies are click to enlarge =)


One of the Piton mountains


The view from outside our hotel room balcony!


Another balcony view


Me, on the beach, with the Piton!

I went on a "rainforest walk" at one of the resorts, and these are some pictures from that...









FI and me sharing a coconut! There was a man on the beach who sold coconuts, cut them open so you could drink the water from it, and then he would cleave it open for you so you could eat the "coconut jelly" inside.


Mmm coconut....


We saw a pirate ship!!!!!


The arch and chairs set up for FSIL's wedding!


FI practicing his trumpet on the dock. He played "In My Life" when the wedding party was walking down the aisle, and "All You Need Is Love" after the ceremony.


Me and FI at the wedding!!!


FSIL and FBIL exchanging their rings =)

Here's something very cool: FI and FSIL's uncle is a professional sand sculptor! As a surprise to FSIL and FBIL, he made a sculpture for their wedding!

That's the uncle, and the newlyweds.


It says their names, and the wedding date. The lovebirds are the wedding motif.


The tent all set up for the dinner reception!


A calypso band showed up to surprise everyone with music!!!


The calypso band asked FI to play with them in the restaurant on the beach! =)


A gorgeous sunset, one of the last from our balcony that we saw =)

Aaaaaaaaand that's it! <3 Sorry to bore you with all this ;-)

    Aww! That wedding looks perfect. Makes me eager to head to the beach in March for BF's best friend's wedding!

    Also, that pirate ship looks sweet, but I am now afraid of real pirates. Seriously, why is it 2011 and real pirates are a part of our lives? I liked it better when the only pirate I ever knew of was One Eyes Willie.

    Thanks, you guys! Glad you liked taking a look!

    cate - yeah, Dragan. He's from Bosnia, and apparently it's a very popular name there. I like to say, "Pronounced but not spelled like the mythological creature".

    desert - thanks about the dress! I bought it almost 2 years ago and this was only my second time wearing it. I finally got a chance! LOL

    eKat - there were 20 of us total, counting the bride and groom. The best part was that FI and FSIL's 96 year old great uncle was able to make the trip from Chicago!

    Oh, and if anyone wants to know, FI's uncle has a website where you can check out more of his sand sculpting: www.sandsculptusa.com

    =)
