Our first full day at BSV where we decided to take full advantage of being on the beach steps from our unit. We took a quick ride to Maho Express for a cup of coffee, hot breakfast bar, newspaper and Johnny Cake for me. They had several versions which were not appealing to me at that hour so I went for the chicken. The Johnny cake itself was very good. I picked the chix out. I really like the JC's at Greenhouse but they don't always have them on our visits. A staff person told us if they are busy there is no room in kitchen to make them. Since we've never eaten at Hilma's I mentioned to David it's time for me to have the real thing. It's on my "to do" or should I say "to eat" this trip. There was a mix of clouds & sun with a strong cooling breeze mid afternoon. We had a lovely day laying out on lounge chairs reading and swimming in ocean a few times before joining the group pool side. Very nice dinner with great group of people from BSV to help celebrate one of their wedding anniversary's at La Rosa Too. I had the grouper filet in garlic butter sauce and David had fettuccine Alfredo. Service charge added to each check. Comfortable seating and attentive service. Grouper fillet ![[Linked Image]](http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc34/starwood2003/2016-11/29C615A9-FF2D-4F6A-845C-D526B0B607D0_zpshtf1cpa5.jpg)

Looks yummy. Has the KLM Airbus A330 been coming to SXM that you have noticed?
