Arriving in St. Maarten

After a 2 day journey, with 7 suitcases, 6 carry-ons, and an overnight in Miami, we arrived last Sunday to our new home for the next 21 months. It was a long trip away from home and family infused with a mix of emotions that took the better half of our first week to dissipate. We are adapting quickly and feel confident we will be able to make a happy life here for ourselves for the next 2 years, for there is a lot to be happy about and grateful for. The island is beautiful. We live in a resort. Just below us are beaches for Ezra to play in the soft caribbean sand and for us to swim in the warm and clear turquoise waters. The grocery stores have rice dream, organic produce and many health food items that we eat and thrive on. Michael is going to go to medical school and become a physician one day. We feel fortunate.
