We had such an amazing time in Barbados. I had no idea that one island could offer such diverse beauty. From the gorgeous relaxing south coast to rugged Bathsheba, it was all a visual aesthetic experience. However, my favorite part of Barbados would be the Bajans. Everyone is so friendly and quick to offer assistance. Mladen and I spent a good deal of time conversing with locals about island life. We had such a hard time leaving! Alas, back to reality and cold NYC :-( Jane, great video! We had such an amazing time in Barbados. I had no idea that one island could offer such diverse beauty.

But then, the range of temperature within which I'm comfortable is quite narrow. Temperature-wise, spring and fall are the best times of year there imo. However, for me - for Christmas spirit, there's nowhere like NYC - for me, anyway. Actually, summers can be wretched in NY, too, Stephen.

Yes, I was passionate about snow skiing for many years but that was long ago and is today very much not missed! Give me the serenity, beauty, and warmth of Barbados' beaches any day. Vicki, hello.

And to think you were once an accomplished skier in Boulder, CO!! I, too, would choose the beach any day over a ski slope. Just adorable, Jane.
