The unspoiled queen

Before my brother Carlos and sister Carith left the island in January we squeezed in a trip to Saba - a volcanic island that is only 5 square miles and supposedly has one of the scariest runways in the world.

Carlos was more than ready for this early morning adventure


our little plane


sleepy boys





reviewing emergency procedures


leaving st.maarten


saba - the short brown strip on the bottom is the runway


yep, we rode with the pilots








breakfast


the view on the way to the marina



ro loved the winding roads down the steep hill






heading out on the boat


mike heading down


ro and carlos





ro and dill


lounging





dill up top and daddy down below


enjoying the boat ride back after the best snorkeling trip while living on the island - a shark and turtles were the best part

love these happy smiles
day 2 coming next
