lol at y'alls beaches that have people on them

Ok, that's very nice and all, but to be fair, you posted a photo of a beach with two people on it. Have you tried going to a beach with truly no people on it? It's not as easy as you might think.

I prefer my beaches with the sounds of laughter. My profession is silence enough.

Thank you for reminding me of this vacation. I need another trip where I don't encounter a single person except at meals. any recommendations?

I mentioned I wasn't supposed to be in Madrid stuck in the airport...



I was supposed to be here! Eating shake shack at JFK at 8am and doing my best impression of a vacationer.

and on my way to:


Cat Island, Bahamas (very different airport than JFK lol)


View from our bungalow




While that beach was nice, there was a nice little hike past a bunch of these critters:





Our companion Tia helped



and after a bit you surface here:



But you can duck back into the woods and carry on:



A clearing gives some hope





"Man o War"


Borrowed a car one day to see a bit more of the island (all 48 miles of it lol)




The Hermitage, highest point in the Bahamas




Had to get some fresh conch salad





more flora and fauna




There is a marina at the southern edge where lots of deep sea fishing charters bring in their catch, so all of the waste that gets dumped in the water means you can see lots of sharks and rays cruising around:



Had to get some jerk chicken and ribs


Catching a ride to another restaurant some other night


Goodbye Cat Island!

No doubt bro, I still remember that Jil? or was it Raf? rose shirt fit you put up a looong time ago. That Jil/Raf shirt started my interest in floral shirts

Jil, I don't remember where that thing is but I'm probably too swole for it now. Love that ****, still pissed I couldn't find the other other one with two flowers. That bold pastel collection was fire man.

Need to cut mang.

You could try St. Vincent & the Grenadines...a lot of islands to choose from like Petit St. Vincent. You dont even have to meet anyone to get food. They have a flag system....you put up your yellow flag to order drinks/food and your red flag to be left alone. Also the phone is one way so no one can call you. All you have to do is put on some Bunny Wailer and thats all...you are in heaven haha

I'm pretty sure Anthony Bourdain did an episode that shows what I am talking about

Yeah bro, I wonder how hard it would be to your hands on this piece again

I originally wanted that one first even though I was gonna cop both, but was able to get the other and missed this one. I'm sure it'll pop up somewhere at some point. I was coppin so much **** at the time that I waited too long on that. I got some dope beige pants cut really nice and crisp and ended up passing on these green trousers because they didn't sit as nice. Man I was talking to my man Jef at the jil store in chicago every other day and he was constantly sending me pics to my work address lmao. I also knew the manager at the soho store when that opened and I was able to get the baller mint colored hand knit sweater that every new yorker wanted when it hit sale. She told me so many nyc'ers got mad as **** when they found out it went to some du in Los Angeles :lol:

I remember when you were dropping some items from your collection. It was all fire. Back in them days you were trying to set me straight and I was being a little **** :laugh:
