We parked at D's and went for our favorite walk down Simpson Bay. We had to stop at Mary's Boon to make a reservation for one night for when we arrive next year for the Regatta before we check into SBR for the rest of our stay. Currently there is a fair amount of sargassum along Simpson Bay all the way from D's Beach Bar to the beached sailboat. There is not much going on at the Bubbacools Beach Bar. It looks like it's ready to open but the stop work order might have something to do with that. We saw a auto hauler ship go by to deliver more cars to the Caribbean and I think it was headed to St Barths. Good thing.
After a refreshing dip in the Villa pool at SBR we had no plans for dinner so we decided to go to Lee's without reservations and hoped to sit at the bar for appetizers. When we arrived the bartender that JD introduced us to saw us at the door and said where do you want to sit. Thanks JD.
We had Crab Bites and Garlic Bread and a couple of cocktails and called it a day.

Sounds like a good day. I just discovered Lee's garlic bread this past trip. Very good and very reasonable.

Lee and Val, genuinely nice people as are Jordan and Iliana, Nancy, Charmaine and all the people associated with Lee's.

Some nasty sargassum there. Otherwise, really nice pictures. Do you know the name of the pretty sailing ship?

The name of the yacht is Eos. At 305 feet it is one of the largest privately owned sailing vessels in the world.

Eos is on the move. Headed to St Barths. Of course it is.
