After 2 layovers (St. Maarten and Charlotte) and clearing customs 3 times – Danny and I returned from our Antiguan honeymoon thoroughly exhausted and glad to be back in the USA.  Navigating the Antigua airport upon departure was quite an event.  It really made us appreciate good old ILM here in Wilmington.
