It was great to have the opportunity again to visit St Maarten for a vacation this summer. Wonderful scenery, beautiful beaches and perfect temperature helped us to wind down and take a well earned rest from the business of church planting.
I decided to overcome one of my fears by taking a 2 hour boat trip with Kev. I have always stayed on dry ground while Kev and the kids have taken boat trips, but on this vacation I decided to go for it. The day trip was to a deserted island where he and many of the other passengers snorkeled while myself and a few of the not so adventurous were ferried ashore by motorized dingy.
After the snorkeling we had lunch prepared for us at an open air restaurant and then we sunbathed and swam until it was time to head back. I was so glad I didn’t give in to fear again and stay back at the resort, as this was the highlight of the trip for me.
The next day Kev drove me around the island so that I could take some “arty” photo’s as he calls them. So here are a few of them –
