Born and raised in Switzerland, at 17 I went to the US for a 6 month engagement as au-pair, taking care of a handicapped child. 15 years and 4 kids later a consulting gig brought me to the Caribbean
island of Anguilla, which I immediately fell in love with. A few months later the house, cars, furniture and most belongings were sold or given away and we moved with 2 suitcases per person and a
boat load full of naivete to our Caribbean island in the British West Indies.

Wow...swimming with dolphins! How magical! And what a "postcard" setting. So sorry to hear of Tiny Tino...I didn't feel good about the bird/cat/no cage combo. Maybe they need one of those cockatoos. They could take care of themselves. Sure looks like the makings of a fun party. Was it a special occasion or just the supplies for one night at Elvis'? And wtf is the holiday decoration?Looks like a breadfruit tree decorated to look like the world with an ozone hole in Antarctica. Only in Anguilla. Happy Holidays Reply to this

That was the Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony in the Valley, where our school (omololu-institute.com) got to run the bar, so all that stuff was camped out at my house for a bit.
Lol, yeah, our "Christmas Tree" is a bit unique, think it's a Mahagony tree that I am sure you guys drive past, on your way to Crocus Hill. Did you see the videos? "Only in Anguilla" is about right!
