Life’s a Beach
Hi guys!! Weโre here in the Bahamas after a crrraazzzyyyy day of traveling ๐
Bahama faces:
We stopped in Miami from Atlanta and had a pretty long layover. We did what was necessary and grabbed some Cuban food. It felt SO good to use some of my espanol today, too ๐
Black bean sopa for me, with a fruit bowl, 3 plantains, and chicken, bread, rice and cheesecake for the pilot.
I also munched this bar:
These Vega bars are probably my #1 all-time favorite bar. Too bad my wallet hates them- $3 for a snack bar :/ But soooooo good.
And at the suggestion of my beautiful friend Jenny, I had a shot of espresso from Cafe Versailles
And the pilot was pensive and drank his latte ๐
We hopped on the bumpy plane to the Bahamas, and before we knew it, we could see paradise.
I have NEVER seen water so blue in my entire life.
We went through customs:
And the car took us to our resortโฆ.
where we were greeted with cold towels and champagne.
I could get used to this ๐
Our room:
Patio and view:
The ocean is right past the sand ๐
TV:
Which will never be turned onโฆ + a fully stocked bar
Powder room:
Showaaaaa + tub
And weโre currently doing some damage to these lovely fruit and cheese plates ๐
Lurve.
Well weโre off to explore ๐ Be back in the morning with lots of photos and shenanigans. Since we have WiFi, Iโll be able to keep up with the bloggy while weโre on vacay. So glad I could bring yaโll along with us ๐
xoxo,
Gina
I am so glad you could bring us along, too. Looks gorgeous!
Ooooh it is windy and rainy/snowy here, these pictures are so lovely. I’m going to live vicariously through you and just pretend I’m there instead ;). Have funnn!
Oh man. We were just in Mexico in march. Too soon to wanna go on vacay again?!? Nahhhhh. Please enjoy a caipirina for me!!! Yum!
oooh very exciting! that cuban food looks delish. enjoy your vacay ๐
I just got home (about an hour ago) from an extended weekend at the beach. Pure glory. Enjoy your time together… there’s nothing more beautiful than the ocean. ๐
Relax and enjoy paradise!!
The room is beautiful! Enjoy yourselves. I’ll be thinking of you basking in the sun while I’m in cold and dreary NY. ๐
Ooooh! Have a great vacay!
Have a wonderful time in paradise!!! Can’t wait to see pics!

XXOO

Hey Gina…this is kinda random, but what is the name of the nail polish you are wearing?? I have been looking for a color like that!!
it’s called electric pink- i want to say it’s loreal brand? from targizzle
Oh my word you are going to have such an amazing time!! Your blog is probably the closest I’ll ever get to the Bahamas! ha
Awesome view….hope you have an amazing time. Can’t wait to see and ready all about it.
Felicidades y Suerte:)
love that we get to see your trip in real time! glad you had a safe trip down.
Love your hotel room! Have fun!!
aaahhh yaaaay, glad you made it there safely ๐
Wow… What a cool vacay!!! ๐ Have a great time!
I love how your TV is never going to be turned on. I feel like I watch even more TV when I go on vacation even if it’s the Bahamas. I can’t wait to hear your updates. Have fun with the pilot my dear! ๐
Wow your digs look amazing!! Have fun!
oh its beautiful! that room looks gorgeous. have a blast, we’ll be ok if you don’t check in too much, you should just enjoy yourself. can’t wait to see pictures tho
Looks amazing!! Enjoy yourself!!
Ummm I definitely need to get away with PB. Your trip looks amazing already.
Have a blast!
pensive hehe. AH so jealous! ENJOY-SOAK UP PARADISE FOR US
gorgeous! can I ask where you are staying? Bahamas is on my list! Have fun for us living in the snowy states =)
The water in the Bahamas is gorgeous, agreed! We were just there last August and had the best time, enjoy ๐
This is me being significantly MORE jealous than I was in your last post.
Oh, and I love your Bahama Faces. ๐
I’m so insanely jealous I’d be planning my own Bahamas vacation if I knew of a good resort! Anyone? Readers?
Oh gosh…your vacay digs look AH-MA-ZING. You two are going to have such a great time.
Also, are you bilingual or is Spanish a second language? Or your first language? Just curious! I’m so jealous of anyone who can speak two languages. I’m trying to learn Spanish, but it’s slow going. I know some French, but nowhere near enough to be fluent in it! Sigh…if only my parents could have spoken two languages at me when I was just a wee bebe. That would have made it so much easier!
Have a great time Gina!
my family is mexican so spanish is a second language– i don’t get to use it as often now, though
Looks amazing!!! Making me jealous ๐
Gina I am so jealous of you right now!! That looks wonderful. I’m sure you have tons of fun. ๐
Just wondering, are henna tattoos a thing in beaches over there? Here in the Philippines they’re available in every single beach you could go to. Last time, I got butterfly wings on my back. ๐
That water is gorgeous!! I’ve always wanted to go somewhere tropical like that. Have a blast!!
OMG!! I’m jealous!!! Have a wonderful time!! Which hotel are you in? It looks fabulous! (you can tell us when you get back if you want!! i.e. keep the crazy stalkers away!! lol!!!)
Woman, you need to go to Australia. You will be blown away!
Hi Gina, this looks awesome! I’m so happy you could bring us to the Bahamas too ๐ Love your room ๐ Happy Holidays you two!!!! ๐
Hope you have a great holiday, it looks amazing! ๐
Have fun! Looks amazing. its funny, I live in a cabana right on the ocean and yet I see pictures like this and get so jealous! I get the grass is always greener ๐ have a great trip!
It all looks incredible! Have an amazing time! ๐
xo

Gah! I’m green with envy! You are making me so excited for next year when my boyfriend and I are heading south! Just one.more.year!
I’m soooo jealous! Hope you and the pilot have an amazing time!
Gorgeous!! Have an amazing time, you deserve it!
Oh Gina it’s gorgeous!!! I’m sure you’re having a fabulous time ๐
Oh, GinaโฆI NEED a vacation like this. Next best thing is living it vicariously through you. I think the view from your patio calmed me a bit here in my little cube ๐
