Yesterday we had breakfast at La Vista such a beautiful view and then headed to Maho. After a deposit at our favorite jewelers JN Jewelry we headed to the beach. The full picture of the beach was taken at 12.07pm on a Saturday!! There were no ships in and it is timeshare turnover day., it's all in the timing. Also a picture of Mr. and Mrs. Then we stopped in at Oh Paris and I wanted one of everything but ended up with a plate of pastries, yummy. Since we were still full from breakfast we brought the pastries home but their sandwiches look delicious and will return for lunch soon. The dollar and euro must be the same because I got a 10 euro bill with US in my change.
Of course we couldn't leave the beach without stopping at the Driftwood for a couple of rum punches.

Great idea Motown..and should you forget, there are sandwiches from Emilio's available at the airport bar, back by gate 8 for as long as they last. Word has gotten around.

LaVista is a great setting. Have spent many a day at both their pools. And yes, the Euro is pretty much at par with the Dollar.

Whaletail, what time do they start breakfast at LaVista? We ate a few times for dinner long time ago. I remembered it was wonderful!!! And OHHHYEAH! it's not easy to drive/walk past Driftwood without stopping for one of the best Rum punches on the island and a dip in that beautiful ocean beach!! Thanks for sharing these lovely photos!! ( how about this old photo I dug up from the original boat!!)
