Anguilla Trip Report & Photos 6/26-7/3 2016
 
I'm finally in! Had issues getting into my account when I first posted this blog last month so I created a new identity. Now I am re-posting it under the proper username :-)

I tried out a new blog style format this time...I think it's more user friendly.

Anyway, we had a fabulous trip to my favorite island!

The report is long with lots of photos so grab a cup of coffee or glass of wine and settle in :-)

Beautiful pictures! Makes me pine for the beaches of Anguilla!
On the unfinished building thing in Anguilla, a resident in the know told us that the law prevents the government from taxing a building until it is finished, so savvy property owners submit plans for upper floors, but never complete them. It does ruin the appearance of the island, and probably impacts tourism, so I don't understand why the law remains.
If you stay to the shorelines, the island is beautiful all the same!

Also, belongers don't have mortgages. They buy supplies and build when they have the money, so they build the main floor with plans to expand, upgrade doors and windows in the future
