We are back home after a week of saying our goodbyes and packing up the rental unit we have lived in for the past three years in St. Thomas. It has been an emotional time…While we are so very happy to be back in our ‘real’ home full time – and back to the reality that comes with it – it is also a bittersweet homecoming. Knowing we will not be seeing the people who have been such a huge part of our lives these past few years…people who have welcomed us into their own lives and made us feel like family, is sad. The reality is just now starting to sink in.
I’ll post a little more tomorrow, but it’s already been a long day. We returned with five large checked bags plus our carry on luggage. We are [mainly] unpacked, the mail is sorted, and laundry is started.
In the meantime, I’ll leave you with some images of the island we have called ‘Home’ and grown to love these past few years…
