Pretty romantic, especially if you swim to them from a sailboat. Along
with that moonlight swim.

I like Castle Hill, the food is delicious but I don't agree with the romantic label. And yes, WER, we've been through this before! *smile*

"caughs"
"looks around"
Well the hot spot for me is the Virgin Island's resort. While you listen to the romantic music,sitting in the hot tub.Under the moonlight,with a bottle of champaigne on ice. With a beutiful women next to me as I stroke her wet hair.......

*still laughing*
Brian, if you have ever tried, you MUST know wet hair is very hard to "stroke." A pretty scenario though.
I gotta laugh because most of the seemingly sexiest places/situations are, in reality, not so great. For example, sex on the beach -- can you say "ouch?" Tiny, grainy pieces on all those soft parts is NOT fun. There are ways around this of course and making love in the mountains requires only a bit of foresight to be just as 'romantic' in reality as it is in theory.
WER, as I said before (when we were talking about thunderstorms, torrential rains and balconies) my fantasies and ideal hot spots change with my moods. Some of the buttons on my body never do though!
Sorry, Brian... welcome to the restaurant conference!!!

There are so many romantic places here to "eat" that it would not be easy to choose just a few - but the scenery I prefer is overlooking a live eruption
(can tell where my mind is - I typed that as love eruption the first time...)
