John and I decided we needed a 'vacation' from St. Kitts so we packed up and went to Nevis for the weekend. Here is the view of St. Kitts from the ferry.














We made it to Nevis in one piece.




















We stayed at this great little hotel called Nisbet Plantation Inn- it was GORGEOUS! We tossed our stuff down and immediately headed for the beach...this is what we found:


Look at the beach through the trees.

















Not too bad. ;) There were hammocks everywhere...I couldn't get enough of them!











This is the walk from the beach to our bungalo:



















They even had a pool with a HOT jacuzzi...not the lukewarm ones you find everywhere else. This place was pretty much heaven.















On Saturday we met up with Ashley, Julie, Andrew and Chris to ride horses on the beach. And it was Riley's birthday so we had to do something in honor of her. (Happy one year birthday (7-12-08) Miss Riley Jean!)















My horse didn't like anyone behind it, so I was last...even behind the guide. Did I mention she was EXTREMELY slow too? I miss Bugs :(.











































We made friends with the little goat that lives at the stables :)

She is so sweet!














The night we had some wine, poked around the hotel grounds, and watched the sunset from the beach.











































Sunday we decided to relax. This is from our beach- we snorkeled around here and saw some fish and some eels. Still waiting to see a sea turtle!




















I got an idea, started digging, told John to get in the hole, then I buried him. :)




He looks like a coconut at the base of the tree!





























This pretty much sums up our day on Sunday.



















It was really difficult to leave, but reality set in and we had to get back to class. :( It was a great little break though.

I will be home soon guys! Keep me in your thoughts during finals (the 10th-14th). Can't wait to see you all!
