We started off with a light breakfast here at Horny Toad before heading into town as Ronalee has some more shopping she wanted to do. My intention was to have a full breakfast at Chesterfield's and skip lunch as we had dinner plans with friends at Isola. Due to it being St. Maarten Day, Chesterfield's was closed so that plan went out the window. Traffic was very light and we actually found free parking at the lot along the road. Two ships in and that meant a lot of business, Caribbean Gems was packed. A very light lunch and a drink at Big Wood and it was back to the Horny Toad.

I went to SMYC for a quick drink and to see if perhaps Brian was there but he was not. My wife tried getting in the water here but was not comfortable with the wave, even though they had died down some. We did see people in the water for the first time since our arrival.

Social hour here at Horny Toad as a few new guests had showed up.

Dinner was at Isola. I parked near Flamingo and as we were walking to Isola I heard a familiar voice call out my name. It was Kerine who used to work for Davide at La Gondola and then Izi. She is working at the cafe on the corner. They were not busy but Isola had a decent crowd. We were part of a group and all appeared to enjoy their dinner choices.

It appears to be a little calmer today and for the first time I can see Saba as I looked out to check on arriving ships and Doug siting on the wall with the cat. If we can get in the water here we will stay here today, if not it will likely be Mullet Bay, Amazing the difference in the wave action between Simpson Bay and Mullet Bay.
