10 Things
It's so wonderful to be home. My dogs missed me, my man missed me, my bills missed me. Two out of three ain't bad, no? While a complete story is coming up shortly, chock full of information and photos about the gorgeous island of Eleuthera, can I interest you in a few small morsels of information that I learned about myself? Sharing is caring, y'all.
Thanks to my friend Alex Robertson-Textor for a few of the pictures where I am clearly making a fool of myself. Alex, you rock!














I have also enjoyed the environs of Eleuthra. I still enjoy Jamaica as my preferred Carribean destination, but for a low-key holiday, Eleuthra can't be beat. Nicely done, Matt.

Extraordinary photos -- I especially enjoyed the one on the plane (the look on the woman's face is priceless!) and the one with the rainbow.

Gorgeous pics - where did you stay? - looking to get away to someplace a little remote. Pls advise. Thanks

Wow. I don't necessarily covet the idea of a tropical vacation but I am sitting here seething with jealousy. Also, did anyone ever tell you you have lady legs? Just sayin.

Well, I'm green with envy.
Any other food adventures besides a few fish burgers and Kalik's?
Do tell...

Matt, you are hands down adorable.

I almost felt like I went on a 5 min vacation (given recent seattle weather, some sun would be the right medicine).

I am SO jelly :-)

I love the Caribbean especially when it's cold and wintery--I live in NYC--I hope you got to enjoy coconut water straight from the tree and the jelly inside--a good drink is coconut water with rum and a splash of lime. Fish burgers rock!!
Welcome back--I love the photos.
Best,
Melanie

We just came back from a sailing trip in the Bahamas, it's just a wonderful place on earth and we came back with beautiful memories too (with the happy vacation memory lumps also... ;-).

This looks amazing - such a fun photo album! Reminds me a little of a trip we took to Belize a few years ago. Can't wait to read more!
