As the weather gets seemingly colder and colder here in Boston (we got a casual 12″ of snow on Monday), I am counting down the seconds faster and faster until we leave for Aruba. The thought of sitting in a beach chair with my toes in the sand and a cold drink in my hand gets me SO excited! Though I love all different types of vacations – winter ski vacations, extreme sport vacations, countryside road trips, big city visits – it is fair to say that beach vacations are my favorite. Hands down. I have been a warm weather beach kinda gal through and through, my entire life. My parents both love the beach and we grew up going to our beach house in Florida multiple times per year. There is a certain kind of solace that can only be found while alone on a beach. No matter the season, no matter my mood, no matter the situation – the beach is always a great idea!
My Top 10 Favorite (in no particular order)
1. Cayman Islands – 10 Mile Beach (the most beautiful water)
