A few favorites

Our honeymoon was a week after the wedding and we flew down to Barbados to stay at The Crane Resort. When we arrived, we were greeted and given Barbadian punch. Yum...punch.

We quickly found a local favorite (Banks Beer) & made it our own.

We enjoyed the pools and the beaches & the drinks.

We woke up to this view every day. Sigh. Take me back!

Dinner in town one night at a restaurant sitting on the water. We were able to watch turtles (big ones) swim right under us. It was amazing!

We found an Irish bar. Fitting since our favorite bar in Charlotte is an Irish place.

I rocked the curly hair. There was no hope.

Happy Tan Mr. Potts

We celebrated our anniversary on Saturday night at Flemmings. Oh so yum!! When I asked him what his favorite memory of our first year together was, he told me it was definitely our honeymoon in Barbados. I couldn't agree more. So, this post is for Mr. Potts and his favorite memory(ies) from our first year.

On our way to Barbados!

I'm so excited about this! We had to wait a week between our wedding and honeymoon since the flights from Charlotte to Barbados only run on Saturdays. Why am I writing about this here, you may ask? We're going to have the chance to partake of some wonderful restaurants and cuisine. Gourmet oceanfront restaurants, authentic local eateries, to festive downtown bistros. We are lucky to have two restaurants at our resort, The Crane. Zen features classic Thai and Japanese cuisine overlooking Crane Beach. L'Azure showcases a panoramic sea view and Caribbean seafood, along with a Sunday brunch featuring live Caribbean gospel music!

Check out The Crane here.

With weather in the mid-high 80's we'll have perfect weather to do some exploring of local eateries - and hopefully some shopping!!

We'll be gone for a full week. I'll be back right before Thanksgiving. So I'll have to update with food from Barbados as well as what our Thanksgiving menu will be.
