Morning walk dedicated to Scuba Alltech63 Yesterday at 01:10 PM After correctly pointing out that my dinning selections were high in calories and fat content which was 100% accurate 🤔.

I decided to walk up Rue Happy Bay to where the very nice villa's sit on top of the hill between Happy and Friars Bay.

I started cussing you Scuba halfway up

but I made it.
My thoughts were if I was going to do a major hill do 1 so if I passed out at least a car would see me on the side of the road instead of some less traveled goat trail.

The views were worth the hike so I did the hill first then down to the mud pit road where I came across a heard of Cows which did give a slight pause as 1 kind of eye balled me.

Once I completed the trail back to Happy I saw Danny and had a good conversation with him about what happened to the Dragon head statue that was there last year.

So now I will continue with my gastronomic selections as we only have a few more days to go and Le Cottage and Bistro are on the menu

Short Term Car Rental from Orient Village sxmdon Yesterday at 02:49 AM Hi -

We are arriving the end of March and this year we decided not to rent a car for the full two weeks, as we mostly just go to the beach these days. I was wondering if there are any local car rental companies that would do a pick-up and drop off somewhere in Orient Village? We would just need the car for the day and likely on Wednesday, April 1 to go to the Market in Marigot, quick stop at Ma Dou Dou and likely some groceries on the way back to the Village. It's possible that we would want to go another day the following week but nothing is carved in stone at this point.

Thanks in advance!

Don

The Final in-between Alltech63 12/20/2025 05:37 PM So we decided to have lunch at Rancho Del Sol that over looks Orient Bay.

Great service and views and the food was pretty tasty.

Next stop the U-Save and then Bleu Emeraude
