Hello all,

Just got back from getting married in Texas and a honeymoon in St. Lucia. I never plug anything on here, but I feel the need to do so now. If anyone on hear is thinking about what to do for their honeymoon, I'd like to recommend Sandals Grande in St. Lucia. It is an all-inclusive resort that caters to couples only and is mostly populated by newlyweds. I cant say enough about the place and the staff. I was pampered and taken care of the whole 10 days me and my new bride were there. The food was top notch and we had top shelf booze included, as well as most land and watersports. The diving (also included) was amazing. The staff were wonderful. It was the honeymoon of a lifetime!

    After you hit upload look to the top of the dialog box and see if you are getting an error that the file is too big.


    Indeed she is, excuse me but, hubba, hubba!!!:D

    She is not much of an audio snob like me, but she does like her music. She just doesnt seem to care if its from an iPod or from a good stereo!

    I have heard the Sandals St Lucia is probably their best - I would not recommend any of them in Jamaica though. Very nice pix of you both - she is very beautiful. Take care of her.
