Back to Reality

DH and I just got back last night from a week long vacation to Sandals in Emerald Bay (Exuma Bahama's).... If anyone is looking for a good getway I highly suggest this. 

It was a reward trip (for my work) so there was about 20 of my co workers from other offices and it was great.  It's mainly a couples resort but you get your own butler.  The butler literally unpacked suitcases if we wanted them to (I didn't), he made us dinner reservations, brought us snacks and drinks on the beach, walked us to dinner.  We went back to the room after spending it at the beach to a bubble bath with rose petals in the water.  The only thing lacking is the activities.  Really it was a lay at the beach or the pool, go to the spa type of place.  We did rent a Jeep Rangler with another couple to go exploring off the resort property, talk to the locals, etc and that was a blast.  Temps were in the mid 80's with no humidity and a nice breeze. 

Unfortunately it's back to work today.  It's good to be back and my skin is thankful it's not sunny.  I BURNED (think redish/purple) and we kept reapplying sunscreen constantly.

  • Sounds wonderful (minus the sunburn)! I hope it heals quickly! I don't burn, but my husband does, so I semi know your pain.
  • That sounds like a wonderful vacation!! Glad that you enjoyed and am writing down the recommendation.  Good luck getting back into the grind!

     Is it bad that I would love for my only choices to be lay by the pool or lay on the beach?  I think it's a sign that I'm exhausted with life! 

  • I want a butler. 

    Sounds like an awesome vacation!

  • That sounds awesome.

    Coming back from vacation is the worst. I'll sometimes overhear co-workers mention how they're refreshed and ready to dive into work; I wonder what I'm doing wrong.

  • I feel your pain (and used it to justify several days of slacking off at work).  I should really learn to take a day off to spend at home when we get back to sort of ease myself into things, but I just can't justify using up the vacation time.
