Turks & Caicos

Thanks in large part to some advance planning on the part of our friends, Dave and Sarah, we had a blissful week in Turks & Caicos over the February school break. We stayed at Beaches, which is a resort designed for families. It's all-inclusive, so once you get there there is nothing to think about at all... except which pool to lounge at, where to eat lunch, and what kind of cocktail would be best before dinner. Everyone was very happy!




Edie and her friend Lilah spent hours and hours in the pool, enjoying the swim up bars for smoothies, and the freedom of not having to be with parents at all times.



Gemma went to a kids camp most mornings, and enjoyed lots of activities which often included a visit from a Sesame Street character.



Chris and Dave went bonefishing one morning while Sarah and I held down the fort by the pool sipping ice tea and wondering how the girls were doing at kids' camp. They caught many bonefish (eight I think) which was a highlight of the trip for Chris. Look at that water! The beaches and water around Turks & Caicos are phenomenally beautiful!



We scheduled a family photo shoot toward the end of our trip. I am not allowed to post all of the photos, because we may use some on our holiday cards... but here are a few of them. We really liked our photographer!
