Desert Island Vaca

It's dead winter here in Connecticut and it's no secret that I love snow and ice and wind--but when I'm tracking salt and sand into my house for the 30th day in a row? Well it may be time to revisit my holiday photos. That's right--my Desert Island Christmas memories.

Take a peek and tell me where in the freak you think we were, and I'll select one random person to win a $10 gift certificate from Samhain!

(You could use it to buy LB Gregg's Trust Me If You Dare--or Catch Me If You Can in print. Just sayin'.)

Clue # 1

Islands

Clue #2

The pace is slow--and the snorkeling is divine.

Clue #3

Famous for Pirates (and rum)

Clue #4

Driving ~~in the middle of~~ on the 'wrong' side of the road.

Clue # 5

Not in the US but English is spoken here.

And bikinis are worn.

No-- that's not me.

Let the guessing begin! I'll select a winner on Sunday by midnight.

And now? Back to shoveling the sidewalk.

RE: Tortoise. Uhm. He came with the house. There were plenty of sea-turtles, though. And pelicans.

JenM said...: Okay, I'm thinking this is Trinidad. It's a former British colony and it's famous for rum (don't know about pirates, but I think they were all over the place back then). Anyway, wherever you were, I wish I was there right now.
