Started the day with breakfast at Tortuga. Originally planned it to be Revile Martin however, leaving BSV we found ourselves trapped by a garbage truck. With no

room to pass and hubby frustration at cars waiting on the other side of truck zooming ahead with no regard for us once truck made it to a wider side of road, we wasted over 30 minutes. so we stopped at Tortuga.

Great choice. Don had pancakes with bacon $10 and I had 2 scrambled, bacon, sausage, toast,, juice $19.

Watched the JetBlue from NY fly over. This place is more elegant than Sunset Beach Bar, less expensive, better food and a great view.

On to the Nature store in Simpson Bay to search for black cherry concentrate to ward off Don having a gout attack. We have gotten it there before but no luck this time.

Too full from breakfast we lounged on our lanai. Some napping took place.

Later we went to Fat Tony’s to meet friends from RI for St Pat,s celebration. Green beer, corned beef and cabbage, potato, carrots $42. There was a band that played Irish tunes with a carribean flare, strangely begun with a prayer from a priest. All solome until the Amen then all hell broke loose with laughter, passing and clinking of beer glasses and the songs. Great time!

Tired, back to BS V and called it a night.

Look in Carrefour for Sour Cherry juice. Think it's Juicy Juice brand. Kept my gout away for many years

We've never eaten there. Where do you park?

Thanks Bill and Elaine. I went to every Carrefore and did not find a drop . Today I found it in a health store near police station in P’Burg. It really works!

Carol, you park wherever you find space. This time, for us, it was facing ocean where there are spaces just before the right turn into road where the restaurant is.

Rosemary--I don't like to depend on a restaurant where I don't know where I'm going to park.

We don’t either Carol and we don’t usually go to Fat Tony’s. Went because it was St Pats day. And since we don’t like to drive in dark, we went early.

Carol, have you tried Spaghetti House.? Menu looked good.

The bakery in Jordan has different owners I think. It wasn’t the same.

Rosemary--we generally don't eat Italian on island. Too many other cuisines I would much rather have.
