Having never visited the Caribbean, I went to the stunning Bahamas at the beginning of the year, to get a much-needed Vitamin D boost, after the dreary winter at home.
The Warwick, Paradise Island was fabulous, with its private beach, a lookout point to spot the baby sharks and stingrays at night, and a delicious and varied buffet.
I managed to swim with pigs, see Pearl Island and Rose Island, parasail on Cabbage Beach and enjoy a pirate excursion to Nassau, which also enabled me to satisfy my James Bond addiction.
On the Nassau trip, I managed to see various locations where the movie Thunderball was filmed, along with John Watling Distillery, which doubles up as the Nambutu Embassy from the opening scene of Casino Royale.
Once again, Amanda did a wonderful job in organising everything and I would thoroughly recommend her to anyone planning a special trip abroad, honeymoon or just a normal holiday!
Thanks, Amanda.
