 All right, so we're headed to St. Bart's on this trip and my family and I have been traveling to St. Bart's ever since my sweet 16 and we always go there during the Christmas and New Year's time frame so that's where we celebrate those holidays and this particular year which was 2019 I decided that I really wanted to bring Eboo so Eboo is my dog and he travels well and the way that we travel is we fly into St. Martin and then we take a smaller plane and then that smaller plane will take us to St. Bart's. One thing worth mentioning is if you ever charter a plane or take a small plane over to St. Bart's is that the landing strip is so tiny so you kind of have to clear a mountain and then drop like several feet to land on the landing strip for St. Bart's but you know kind of get used to it after you've done it a few times. There are like 14 beaches on this tiny island and they are all so gorgeous and have like their own special character so pretty much all we do while we're in St. Bart's is go to the beach, eat, go shopping, going out for drinks, a heavy rotation. Because my dad is a foodie. Whenever we travel to St. Bart's we're eating so well. I mean some of the best restaurants. It's kind of hard to have a bad meal in St. Bart's. Whenever someone comes into the port of Gustavia it always has like so many yachts throughout the port and a lot of people are traveling from Beirut, the UK, several other places, France obviously and they come and stay in the port and so it's really nice when you drive through Gustavia late at night and get to see all the beautiful yachts lit up. Obviously as it like gets closer to Christmas and New Year's the yachts come in and the port gets so packed. One of my absolute favorite hotels is Hotel Christopher. It's in Ponte Mellue and it's just such a gorgeous hotel and what I love to do here is to hang out by the pool and just enjoy the drinks and the view. We're gonna look up. So today we're here at the Christopher Hotel. We got to experience a special shopping event that Louis Vuitton is having at Cheval Blanc. Previously known as Delge France. They tie a textile and use it as a handle. It's a small box. I was living for this chair which sells for like $20,000 And as always just eating up the incredible view Cheval Blanc overlooks Flemann's Beach and literally there's no bad view in St. Barthes. It's in rain and sun and it actually doesn't matter. We have one in St. Martin. Nicky Beach St. Barthes is obviously like a fan cult favorite. You have to go if you can. One of my favorite personal favorite hotels is Le Bartholomew which is in the Grand Poldesat and what I love about this place is they recently remodeled the entire hotel and it's so chic and so gorgeous. A lot of wooden treatments and the food there is fantastic. So definitely one of my favorite places to have a drink or be by the pool. You know it's really funny coming to St. Barthes over the past 15 years and being able to see what was and what is now a lot of places have turned over to something new. For instance at Shell Beach there was a restaurant called Dobezil that we used to love to go to and now if you go to Shell Beach you'll see that there's a restaurant very trendy very cute called Shalona. So over the time you'll just see the differences that come to the island and the upgrades that they're implementing for the tourists. Shell Beach is definitely more of a tourist spot but we love to go to Shell Beach either way. You know it's just the easier place for people to reach if they're coming from the port and going into the island of St. Barthes. Shell Beach is probably the easiest beach to get to. There are definitely shells and less sand so be mindful of that. And Shalona also has great food so you can't go wrong there. So Morgan and Bobby could not stay for the full trip so I had my parents to myself which is always a pleasure. And we had on this particular night dinner at Bonito and Bonito was so gorgeous. I think it's a special place and not hard to have dinner here. It overlooks Gustavia and has such an incredible view which my video of course doesn't do a justice but highly highly recommend if you're ever in St. Barthes to go over to Bonito and to Shalona the hotel Christopher all these amazing places that we get to go to and experience. In 2020 we did not get to make it to St. Barthes due to COVID. I'm hoping that this year 2021 now that we are a family that has been vaccinated that we can make our way back to St. Barthes because I do truly miss the place until next time.
