One of the best things Tracey ever did for me was open me up to travel. In order to get me on this trip to Saint Marteen, she had to buy non-refundable tickets and tell me, "I'm going with or without you and you're paying for both seats either way."
So glad she did. We had a great time and it was the first of many trips for us.
I remember as we were on final approach to Saint Martin (the dutch side), I looked out the window of our PanAm jet at the hotels on the glidepath and thought, "what idiots are staying THERE." Just as I thought it, Tracey turned to me from the window saying, "look, Charlie, there's OUR hotel!"
This picture, taken in our room, says it all.
UPDATE:
Here is actual footage of jets landing on St. Martin. The last hotel on the right you see in the background just before touchdown is the one Tracey's pictured waving from here. Yes, it was THAT close.
