Turks & Caicos

Brooks and I just got back from a great week aboard Infinity in the Turks & Caicos Islands.  What a beautiful place!  http://www.turksandcaicostourism.com/virtual-slide-show.html

My parents have been sailing through the islands for about 5 months on and off.  We were able to meet them in Providenciales (Provo).  First, we took a red eye flight from Denver to Atlanta and then had  4 hour layover in ATL before flying to Provo.  Brooks was such a trooper and handled the travel like a champ!

First stop - "The Anchorage" for a festive welcome drink

The boat is just off the left of this deck!

Brooks loved playing the cockpit with toys and buckets of water.  This is the safety harness we used so he couldn't get anywhere!  Thankfully, he is not walking yet - one less thing to worry about.

Brooks building his first "sand castle" - he loved the sand and the water - his favorite was when the waves would rush up over his toes.

The beaches were so beautiful and we were able to visit many of the beach resorts for lunch and dinner.  We stayed on the boat in Turtle Cove and it was perfect.  We went to the same beach a few different days.  It had a children's park with swings and a big playgrond and just a little off the shore was an awesome reef.  Phil and I enjoyed two snorkling trips - we saw lots of fish and coral as well as a sea turtle and even a sting ray!

We had a rental car and drove around the whole island one day.  At the south end we found this incredible house that we thought was a hotel until we drove up to the front door.  Definity a private home!

Walking to dinner at the Tiki Hut, just around the corner from the boat.

Thanks Nana and Grandpa Phil for a great vacation - now we are going home to rest!
