Day1
Arrival
September 2, 2020 in the United States ⋅ ☀️ 91 °F
I've only ever spent time in Sea-Tac Int'l airport on the way to somewhere else. I remembered it being green and open and scenic. My return did not disappoint. The airlines were incredibly crowded this weekend but most people tried to follow the covid rules. The flight from Phoenix to Seattle was short and sweet and the airport is not far from downtown. (Stayed at the Thompson Hotel). I love seeing how green and natural everything looks as soon as you leave the airport. Huge change from the desert mountains in Phoenix. No rental car this trip, all Uber and lots of walking.Read more

Shipwreck!
August 20, 2020 in Turks and Caicos Islands ⋅ ☀️ 86 °F
Last snorkel trip before heading back. This is a cargo ship had sunk during one of the hurricanes a few years ago not far from Iguana island. The water was pretty shallow so we could up close to the debris field.Read more

Day5
Stargazer & Iguana Island
August 20, 2020 in Turks and Caicos Islands ⋅ ☀️ 86 °F
The 1/2 day tour from the Caicos Dream tours included a stop at Iguana Island and lunch on the Stargazer. Iguana Island connects the Atlantic and Caribbean oceans. Everybody else saw lots of Iguanas except for me ☹️. The pool slide on the boat was very fun but I couldn’t get my GoPro angled right to get the full thrill 😁Read more

This was my first time "trying" to snorkel over coral. Coral is a lot sharper than I thought, that stuff hurts 😥😂

Day4
Da Conch Shack
August 19, 2020 in Turks and Caicos Islands ⋅ ☀️ 86 °F
One of the top two places to get conch in the Turks. Conch is their most popular seafood. It’s basically a giant sea snail but it taste better than it sounds. This place is 90% awesome and 10% tourist trap 😆 But really it’s just fantastic. Great food, great drinks, with the best reggae beats. What’s even neater are all the cool conch shells piled up on the beach. Supposedly some are still alive.Read more

The Hole, Turks Head Brewery
August 19, 2020 in Turks and Caicos Islands ⋅ ☀️ 86 °F
The Hole is literally a giant hole in the earth where the limestone caved in. It’s a local attraction that is a thing to do. I guess it was pretty neat but I’m not really a fan of standing over open pits with no bottom 😂 We stopped here first before doing a beer tasting at the only brewery in TCI. Great beer, nice bartender, their Irish stout and key lime Hefeweizen were 👌Read more

Leeward Marina, Caicos Conch Farm
August 19, 2020 in Turks and Caicos Islands ⋅ ☀️ 86 °F
My first time off the resort was on a tour with SeaBreeze Island Tours. A lot of the island is still closed because of the virus but we still were able to visit the marina, the conch farm (damaged from the hurricane), “the hole”, Turks Head brewery, Long Bay Beach, Da Conch shack, and more snorkeling!Read more

Day3
Pelican Bay Bar (The Drunken Lobster )
August 18, 2020 in Turks and Caicos Islands ⋅ ☀️ 86 °F
There’s this drink on the menu called the drunken lobster that called to me. It was one of the expensive ones ($14 😖) and had a little happy chef symbol next to it. So I thought this drink must be the greatest thing ever.

It looked deadly upon arrival, dark red like a volcano, and had some of their best liquor. Got some mahi fish tacos to help counteract the alcohol and I was good to go 😁 Except I wasn’t. By the time I finished I couldn’t stand up and I couldn’t even ask for some water. That drink claimed my soul and kicked my ass 🤣. It took me forever to get back to my room. I was out for like the next 4 hours and missed my afternoon swim 🥴 If I ever go back, I’m getting it again 😆Read more
