I'm on the ground reporting live from Anguilla-rhymes-with-vanilla. It's our sixth trip to the island since 2009, so I guess you can say that my husband and I are quite smitten with it.
I'm writing a day-by-day trip report and posting about it on my blog, including photos. If you'd care to take a look, please click on any of the following links--they're in chronological order:

Please let me know if you have any questions, and I'll post back here with the remaining day-by-day updates.
Thanks,

Very glad to hear that your husband was well enough to travel and he looks the picture of health in the hammock!

Coconut panna cotta in Anguilla sounds like a match made in heaven .. Happy Anniversary
Well, there doesn't seem to be much interest here in the trip report, but i'm giving it the ol' college try and leaving one more link here at Fodor's. In which we visit Cove Bay, Viceroy, and Straw Hat:

Emily, I've been reading the updates on the TA forum. Love your photos, your writing and your book reviews!
I've enjoyed your blogs. We just got back from Grenada, but this certainly looks like an island I'd like to go to some day.
Hi ej, Just read your report. Glad your husband was okay after that scare! I haven't been on this site as much lately. So, has Anguilla surpassed your love of Grenada? BTW, I hate Cilantro too!!!!
Thanks Emily. I'm following along. I was away when you first posted and missed this thread. Glad to have found it. I love Anguilla, too! (and I love cilantro) We always stay in the West End so haven't made it to Hibernia yet so I was interested to read your review. It sounds nice but unless we stay close I doubt we'll make the long drive.
