Welcome to Paradise- St. Maarten

I love traveling and I love water, so when you take me on a vacation to a place where there is beautiful blue water and you add in the people I love, I couldn't have had a better time in St. Maarten. There is no better way to write this blog than with pictures, words couldn't do it justice...
I love all the different color blues

If you do ever decide to take a trip to St. Maarten (which you should!) then you have to make a stop at Captain Alan's for a great day of snorkeling and lounging on privates beaches: http://www.stmaartenactivities.com (pictured above). Also, my favorite restaurant on the island was Toppers and Toppers by the Sea who has their own house made rum and had the best service on the island: http://www.sxmtoppers.com
