Our first day really began the night before. We headed out to LAX on Tuesday, the 19th of January around 7 o’clock. We had a tremendous amount of rain that day but it cleared up in the evening, so it was a good trip to LAX. We had a lot of time since our flight didn’t leave until 11:30 that night. We found a Chilis and had a couple of drinks and chips & salsa. Perfect way to start relaxing!!! The flight was good, but long and we didn’t sleep very real, especially Tom.
We arrived in Miami around 7:30 in the morning. We had a couple hour layover, got a light breakfast and coffee.
We boarded the plane on time, had a good catnap and arrived in St. Lucia at 2:30 in the afternoon. The air was warm and heavy, but not unbearable. We went thru customs and decided to take a helicopter ride to the resort. 
The ride was amazing and fast. It was a 15 minute ride to the resort area, by car about two hours!!!. 
We took a taxi to the hotel and our vacation finally arrived! We were greeted in a beautiful lobby with champagne and a cool towel to cool us off! We booked a couple of dinner reservations and photo shoot and were shown our room. We got a room with a balcony, which overlooks the pool area and the Caribbean ocean. The room was great and we couldn’t wait to kick it and lay down for a while. We were also given a whole bottle of champagne and some cheese and crackers – it was perfect! 
We had to wait for our luggage because it arrived by car from the airport. Soon it was here, we changed our clothes, walked around a little bit. We enjoyed an amazing sunset and ended up going to an English Pub, had a great dinner. I had mahi, mahi, Tom had a pork roast, dessert buffet, we were stuffed and exhausted. We soon fell asleep around 8 o’clock!
I was really looking forward to this week!
