Thursday May 14 jomarc 6 hours ago Ascension Day.

After a nice dip in the pool, we ventured off to Philipsburg.
Traffic was light, making the ride a very enjoyable one.

Once in town, stops were made at Rima, DK Gems and Juggie’s. Juggie is off island, so his wife Anita invited Marc to hold court at the smallest bar in the world. We were joined by a few cruise ship passengers. It was a fun time!

Chesterfields was closed for the holiday, so plan b for lunch was Yvette’s in Orleans. The restaurant was packed. Our meals of stewed chicken and stewed conch were delicious, as always, and we had the pleasure of being greeted by Felix.

We met island friends for Happy Hour at The Greenhouse, enjoying each other’s company and a beautiful sunset.

It was a fantastic day.

Day 6 Thursday ruralcarrier 8 hours ago La Sucriere for pastries after some balcony time and watching the ships come in. Traffic was light due to it being a holiday, so we took the newbies on a 2-hour island tour. All of the routine areas except the Lowlands, Sandy Ground, and Nettle Bay. Marigot was bustling with cruise ship visitors and tourists with rental cars as well. Grand Case was busy as well, but driving through was easy compared to other times. A quick stop at Orange Fever. The beach was very busy, but it was early for the restaurant.

Back to The Horny Toad for a bit and since there were phone issues on the island, we decided to drive by Fat Tony's to see about pork chop night. It was on and started around 5:00. A quick stop at the casino on Maho and then to Driftwood, as Andy wanted to get sandblasted again. To him, Maho Beach is now known as "Blowback Beach".

Dinner was at Fat Tony's. We got there for HH, which is a really good deal. My wife said her pulled pork was excellent. The pork chops were good and large, but the potatoes were only slightly warm and the veggies were cold. All in all, a good meal and varied menu.

We have been by Bar Code two times, and it was not open either time. Not sure what is going on there.

Fat Tony's Thursday/other options ruralcarrier Yesterday at 04:34 PM Today being a holiday, I am not sure if Fat Tony's is open, as they are not answering their phone. I wanted to got here tonight, but we may need other options. Any idea if D's is open? It looked like SMYC was open. How about Lee's or BBB?
Thanks for any input.

Cupecoy restaurant suggestions requested fabila Yesterday at 01:54 PM David and I will be on the island in July celebrating our wedding anniversary, as well as a milestone birthday for me. We rarely spend time in Cupecoy, so we’re not familiar with the restaurant scene there. Would you happen to have any restaurant recommendations? We’d especially love somewhere with a nice view of the marina.

Friar’s Bay Beach Day jomarc Yesterday at 11:37 AM We spent part of the day at Friar’s Bay yesterday. It was a perfect visit.
The weather was great and the ocean was calm and seaweed free.

Lunch at Friar’s Bay Beach Club was excellent. We split a Camembert appetizer and a club sandwich with delicious French fries.

Thursday Boat Parade ruralcarrier Yesterday at 11:03 AM One advantage of getting up early is seeing the cruise ships arrive.

Star of the Seas came in at a very fast clip, while the Celebrity ship came in much slower. Both are massive.

I am finding the cruise schedule linked here and to the port is not always accurate.
