This Saba lace table topper and book were gifts from my brother and SIL.<\/p><\/div>\n

NOTE: Yikes!\u00c2\u00a0 Rereading this post, I see that it sounds like a lecture or a research paper!\u00c2\u00a0 I hope my school teacher writing style doesn’t put you off.<\/p>\n

I had never heard of Saba<\/a>, let alone Saba lace<\/a>, until my adventurer brother and his equally adventurous wife bought a vacation home on this tiny Caribbean island.<\/p>\n

\"Saba<\/a><\/p>\n

They had been sailing around the world for nearly 5 years when they stopped at Saba to scuba dive.<\/p>\n

\"Saba<\/a><\/p>\n

Of all the exotic locations they had visited, this Dutch “public body” located near St. Maartens\u00c2\u00a0 and St. Eustatius won their hearts.<\/p>\n

On this YouTube video, you can get a real feel of this happy place. Of all the fun, lovely photos in this video, this one was chosen as the cover.\u00c2\u00a0 Why?\u00c2\u00a0 But it is the only marginally racy shot.\u00c2\u00a0 Take a look.<\/p>\n
