    Top Ten Things To Do in the Caribbean

    March 19, 2013 / No Comments

    Time to daydream a bit.  When work gets a bit dull, it’s easy to glide over to Facebook or Twitter, and think about what you would rather be doing right now.  If you really had to narrow it down to a list, and put them in order of priority, what makes your top ten?  Here’s our list: #10  Cocktails and tapas at SandBar, Sandy Ground, Anguilla.  The perfect combination of delicious food and great views. #9   Sip lemon grass water in a lounge chair at the Four Seasons Nevis.  The flavored water of the day at the Four Seasons Nevis changes daily, but the lemon grass is the best.…

    Just One Day: Providenciales, Turks & Caicos Islands

    July 29, 2012 / No Comments

    “Just One Day” takes us to Providenciales in the Turks & Caicos Islands.  The Turks & Caicos Islands include 40 islands and cays, eight of which are inhabited.  Grand Turk is the center of government for the islands, but the islands are probably best known for the island of Providenciales, home to what is often regarded as one of the best beaches in the world, Grace Bay Beach. You had better believe that this day includes beach time, and loads of it, but it also includes some great food along the way.  Let’s start the day with a good breakfast at Bay Bistro.  Bay Bistro is located in the Sibonne…

    Handmade Baskets: Middle Caicos, Turks & Caicos Islands

    July 1, 2012 / No Comments

    When people think of the Turks & Caicos Islands, they often think of Providenciales, the tourism center of the islands, famous for the gorgeous stretch of powdery sand which is Grace Bay Beach.  The Turks & Caicos Islands are actually 40 islands and cays, 8 of which are inhabited.  Among the inhabited islands is Middle Caicos, known for the handmade baskets made from reeds and grasses from the marshes and fields of the island.  The Middle Caicos Coop was formed to preserve the art of Caribbean basketry.  We picked up this treasure on our first trip to the islands in 2006.   On the second Saturday of each month, the…

    Conch Knocking

    May 11, 2012 / No Comments

    Courtesy of Da Conch Shack, on Providenciales in the Turks & Caicos Islands, is this beautifully prepared conch salad, pulled fresh from the ocean.  Once the conch shell hits the work table, they knock a hole in the top of the shell, to expose the tendon which holds the conch inside.  In one swift motion with his knife, the tendon is cut, the meat extracted, and the shell is tossed.  Be sure to enjoy the delicious result with a cold Carib or one of Da Conch Shack’s fabulous rum punches.  For more on Da Conch Shack, and why it is one of our favorite beach bars, read on… For more on…
