ST. BARTHS
I'm not usually a fan of beaches. I would much prefer spending some free time on the top of a snowcapped mountain. But for whatever reason, I felt like getting away this year to find some peace and quiet on a nice beach. Just to catch up with my own thoughts... Maybe because this year, I turned 33? I've heard that peace and quiet can be found on an island in the French West Indies called St. Barthelemy aka St. Barths. Its difficult access makes it a peaceful getaway, rather than a party getaway. Getting there requires a flight to St. Maartens and then either a 45 boat ride or a 15 min prop plane ride into St. Barths. But it was well worth the journey.
僕はあまりビーチが好きではありません。雪山の上で過ごしているほうが好きです。でも、今年はなぜか静かな時間をきれいなビーチで過ごそうと思いました。色々考る時間がほしくて。。。僕が33になったからでしょうか?平穏な静けさはカリブに浮かぶSt. Barthelemy aka St. Barthsという島にあると聞き行ってみました。少しアクセスが難しいのでパーティー旅行というよりはリラックスできた旅でした。島に行くには、St. Maartensまで飛行機で渡り、そこから45分のボートか15分のプロペラ飛行機の移動が必要でした。でも、そのくらいの価値はありました。
Required footwear for St. Barths. I've never seen sandals like this. Talk about form fitting!
St. Barthsで必需品のフットウェア。こんなサンダル見たことない。足にフィットしすぎ!
The Canon waterproof case I posted about before worked great! The long straps everywhere were a little cumbersome, but it did its job.
以前ブログアップしたキャノンの防水ケースはすごくいい!長いストラップがちょっと邪魔でしたが、いい働きをしてくれました。
Like I said, you can take a boat or a plane there. I highly recommend the plane ride. The boat ride takes you through some REALLY choppy waters. And if you don't have your sea legs, you are going to lose your lunch. The plane ride is a little sketchy too, but at least it's only 15 minutes. The views are gorgeous also.
前に言ったように島に行くにはボートか飛行機に乗る必要があります。僕は飛行機がお勧めです。ボートではかなりの荒波の中を移動しますので丈夫な人でないとランチを失います。飛行機もちょっと不安でしたが15分しかかからないので。上からの景色も最高です。
If you miss take off on this runway, you're going in the water! This runway is smaller than most battleship runways.
この滑走路を外すと水の中に突っ込んでしまいます!この滑走路は通常の戦艦滑走路より短いようです。
The hotel room: Literally steps away from the beach.
ホテルルーム:ビーチから数歩。
Goodbye St. Barths. I'll be back one day when the US Dollar isn't getting its ass kicked by the euro.
さよならSt.Barths。アメリカドルがユーロにこてんぱんにやられていない時にまた来ます。

geez, jeffrey. one day, you're talking about your exclusive brunch spot and your bottega slip-ons. you're talking about st. barths the next. this is why people think you warrant that "snobby, pretentious elitist" comment. as a dude known in the streetwear industry, you should be blogging about your nike dunks, beach vacations to miami or puerto rico AND not having brunch at all. hahahahahaha... happy 33rd, man.
do your thing Jeff.. whats the point if you can't enjoy the fruits of your labour...sounds like commenter 1 is jel... at least sign your name, douche bag.
