St. Lucia Day Five!

Alright, I had no idea how many pictures we managed to take on day 5 til just now. Good Gawd. We'd gotten out of control by day 5, I think...haha...

Got up and ate our last breakfast at Discovery. They had the best grapefruit juice...it had sugar added.. yumtastic! 

Killed some time til our water taxi ride to Jalousie! We'd planned to take a cab over land, but uh...boring, right?! This was way better (and about half the time). Cool to see all the fishing villages etc we'd seen from above on our tour..but this time from the water. :)
And hello. Do you watch Lost? If so, what does the below picture make you think of?! I KNOW, RIGHT?! Eric had the camera... I grabbed him and was like "OMG! Take a picture of that!" Fairly certain he thought I was nuts. Yup. 
I have the urge to give you a mental image of me standing and pointing very master and commander style.. Anyway, this is where we were headed (between the pitons). 
Welcome to Jalousie!!
Got there way early and couldn't quite check in, so headed down for food. Entertained ourselves along the way. I have no idea why Americans get reps for being offensive. 

Eric: "Let's see what you move...."

Me: "I have no idea how to play. I'll just sit down! Take my picture!" (nice). 

Eric vs. the Piton. 
Okay, at Discovery, Eric may have actually read the pool rules. He wanted to dive. It was shallow. Anyway, I laughed hysterically when I saw him do it... So we re-did it at Jalousie (for the camera of course).
Our room!! Er...well.. our first room... tomorrow shall feature room (aka awesome-high roller-villa) number two. ;) 
Me: "I think this is two twin beds."

Eric: *strange look and checks* "Hmm..Yeah."

(Note.. we actually didn't care that much...They were just really uncomfy and I may have completely and totally crowded Eric into sleep hell b/c I was freaked out)
Hotel was on an old sugar mill. Miles wrote "Did he move the island?" on this pic on fbook and made me almost spit out my pepsi I laughed so hard! (Another Lost reference). 
Beware. Sharks live here. 
And when someone falls on coral thus stinging her arse, one feels lucky to have brought cortisone.

Dinner at Ladera's restaurant called...obviously.. Dasheene. (It sounds funny when you say it fast and say the ee's much longer than necessary). 

They'd just had a wedding there. So of course I went paparazzi. 
We specifically made dinner reservations in plenty of time to get up there for happy hour and see the sunset. :)

Joined Tracey and Mike for drinks :) (Tracey and Mike are the couple from Florida we met at Discovery. They'd also moved over to Jalousie that day!) I love her bandaids. Clumsy girls stick together. 
Awesome view, Jackie. Jackie, meet awesome view. 
Awwww :)
We somehow happened to head to Ladera the same night as the manager's reception! Hello free drinks and appetizers! One of the drinks, Coco Loco, quickly became my fav...I dont remember what it tasted like-I just loved the packaging...haha.. 



The boys and their coco locos too! haha!
And who remembers the story about the French "video shoot" at Discovery? Guess who showed up at Ladera and was invited to sing... hahaha! Proof was quickly made that this chick is the French version of Heidi (as in Speidi). Wow. *nervous* 
Headed up for dinner!! 
And this was our view... (Thank you, Eric, for being awesome with a camera!) :) 
Course numero dos-duck, steak and some other good stuff! 
And one more pic of the view...just b/c.... 
Why am I roasting in Tulsa again? Oh right... b/c Eric and I thought "round trip" was the best plan for vacation. Note to self. Next time: one.way.tickets. 

Hope you had a great Monday!!
