Days 4-7 wabid Yesterday at 07:31 PM As mentioned our days are spent frolicking in the ocean, snorkeling and relaxing by the pool. The routine continues.

Other highlights: Monday we headed to Mullet Bay in the morning. We seated ourselves near Rosie's and enjoyed the light morning crowd. Fun was had in the soft sand and a small amount of snorkeling near the eastern "wall". However, the farther out you swam the worse the visibility. Not worth the swim.... When midday arrived, we decided to pass on Rosie's and headed to Tap & Still on the way back to SBR.

I have seen past comment on T&S and others here at SBR have talked about it. Consequently, I was curious. I have to admit they serve up a legitimately GREAT BURGER. Being a Wisconsin tavern boy, I like me a great bar burger. When I was about to mention it was better than our local little tavern my wife interrupted : "don't you dare say it!" Good stuff and I personally don't mind their service workflow (menu forms and paper bag delivery to table), it is insanely efficient and the end product is great!

Tuesday evening we took some of your suggestions and had a sunset dinner at La Patrona. Food, service and sunset were great. My only ding was the price. Madison Wi, has a thriving hispanic. community, so paying $28 for a plate of carnitas made me wince. Its a minor ding and it goes away when I consider, venue, location, service and atmosphere.

Today was quiet. I had solitary morning snorkel hovering the reefs off Pelican beach (SBR/Flamingo's beach) which was worth the swim. Plenty of fish and a curious sea turtle (see previous post) Meanwhile my wife, daughter, and sister and law made a field trip to "David's Hole" near Terres Basses which they thoroughly enjoyed. (see link below)

More to follow in a couple days.

PS. I apologize my photo links don't preview. Not sure why. I am thinking it may be a google photos setting I am too lazy to investigate, but the links do work.
