Mr. & Mrs. Vandebilt + kids

Monday evening marked the halfway point of our trip. So far we have spent two weeks just being. There’s no agenda here, no plan to the day. Nothing to do. Nowhere to go. And it’s exactly what we need.

The weather has just been marvellous. Each day we wake up to sunshine, a few clouds a nice breeze and every once in a while a brief rain shower.

We slowly start each day. The kids often have school work to do. Jacob and I catch up on emails over coffee. There’s almost always a quick dip in the pool or on the rare morning I nip down to the beach for an early morning walk. The afternoons are much the same. We head to the beach, lounge by the pool or play at the resort.

Jacob and Charlie have played a couple rounds of golf. Or rather Jacob has and Charlie plays caddy and chugs free Fanta from the drink cart. The girls and I have made many sand sculptures on the beach.

Our house here is absolute perfection. It’s enormous. Enough space for us all to have some alone time. Gorgeous grounds for us to hang out in.

This is definitely a different vacation for us. We have never just stayed in a single spot for our whole trip. I don’t know if we will necessarily do it again but after skipping a year and all the ups and downs of the last two years this is heaven.
