This was a beach day although quite windy. . Only one boat in town, so elZafiro wouldn't be crowded. Think only around twelve people till about 1pm when a small load of boat people arrived. Had our customary BBC. As it was served, we got the message that our drink had the last of the bananas for the day. Love the water color in Simpson Bay. This photo doesn't do real justice to it's true intense color. Tried their Chicken Alfredo for lunch. Very good, except that it kept growing in our bowl, so we had to take the rest home. An afternoon Scrabble game and nap. Dinner was just down the hill from us at Buccaneer Beach Bar. I started with a local brew called Pelican. Betty and I split their1/2# burger. Onto the Princess. Betty down, Norm way up. Covered several days of losses. A stop at Red Piano to hear current guy.

Out of bananas buy one o'clock. Stores aren't that far away. Sounded like a good day.

Is Buccaneer Beach Bar the place(after Sunset Beach Bar ) going toward Maho near the round-about? If so where do you park?

No, Buccaneer is right by the Atrium and the Greenhouse in Simpson Bay.

The place you are describing is Driftwood. Parking is a few spots near the boat or in Maho.

Buccaneer has parking available below Billy Folly RD. Just turn down into Buccaneer and parking is on the left.

Is that actually bbb's lot or just hoping it is. Lots of towing for unauthorised vehicles posted there?

From what I recall, signs do indicate authorized parking for BBB.
