honeymoonin.

the sunday night after our wedding, we stayed at a new, swanky hotel aloft philadelphia airport. it was so funky!!! while we waited for our shuttle to the airport at 3am, i was running around the lobby taking pix! after upgrading to first class (our first time!!!), the 5 hour flight from atlanta, and the hour and a half shuttle ride from the st. lucia airport to the sandals grande st. lucian we finally were officially honyemooning :)

we had such a fabbbbbulous time! i cannot even begin to explain the level of happiness the sandals staff displayed. anything we needed, they were there for us! we had decided before we left we were not going to do any excursions or running around....just relax (and of course, eat and drink). we definitely did that, however, we decided to go on a great hike up pigeon island the friday before we came home. at the end, we were suprised (by the concierge staff) with a sunset boat ride around the inlet! sadly my camera broke half-way through the trip, so we had to buy some disposable cameras (which in my opinion, turned out pretty artsy!) st. lucia is a beautiful and amazing place, i would definitely recommend it!!!

fyi...i uploaded the photos backwards (oops!)
























mimosas & breakfast in first class!
