We had a bottle of champagne in the fridge and I wasn't sure when we would be able to have it, so decided mimosas were in order this morning!! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/toast.gif" alt="" />

I agree!!
What unit are you in?

LOVELOVELOVE this idea, cept I usually eat left overs for breakfast....I've never mixed champagne with guava juice... what do youns think? should I give it a go? I mean I've had bellinis and mimosas...

I agree Carol! But a really nice thing is to put the table ON the sand near the water!! Our perfect time! Unfortunately didn't happen this trip but hopefully on the next one!! Oh! And a sunset dinner on the beach is wonderful too!! Best part is my hubby does the cooking!

Agree, David loves having breakfast out on the deck at BSV too.

I wouldn't think to do that, as I always sit in the shade. Does sound lovely!

Early morning and late afternoon are perfect times! Just stay long enough to eat!! We actually have NEVER used the dining table inside until we went with friends. They insisted on staying inside to eat. I dream all winter about having my toes in the sand! lol

Best kind of breakfast ever! After those I usually need a nap on the beach...lol

We tend to purchase Prosecco in SXM and mix with juices...yum. Mango, or passion fruit...delish. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/dine.gif" alt="" />

Love it!

We are seriously thinking of a trip to SXM, this may have sealed the deal! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

Hey Deb, let me know if you have any questions!

We used half the bottle, no idea whether it will be drinkable tomorrow morning or not..

We actually did not use the table inside--except for the computer!!--until December last year. This year we have eaten inside a few times. The weather has been somewhat cooler this year and a nice amount of wind..

That's when it becomes Chablis

We have this little 'top' thing that came on another bottle of wine we bought here, will see what the result is in the morning.

The beach looks great. We made a visit to BSV in early May to see the units and the beach was covered with piles and piles of seaweed. Guess it has finally stopped arriving.

No seaweed at all when we were there. Unfortunately back home this morning..

Welcome back.

Doesn't feel very good to be back home this morning.. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Sick.gif" alt="" /> The first day back home always stinks..

Between laundry and work - you got that right!! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Yikes.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Yikes.gif" alt="" />

We invested in a champagne bottle cap purchased at a winery in the Finger Lakes, NY and now take it everywhere on vacation. It works fantastically at keeping the "Bubbly" bubbly. Perhaps a place like Baccus has them for sale??

I should look around for that, haven't seen it. We did end up with a little 'cap' thing from one of the bottles of wine we bought at Super U, that fit pretty tight, and it kept it pretty well until the next day.

Hey carol.forgive my ignorance, but where is BSV. Is that at Simpson Bay? Thx. We were going in a couple months!

You totally need something like this Carol:

We travel with one that I purchased from Korbel on a California wine tour. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/dine.gif" alt="" />

We actually don't drink that much champagne, I guess partly because of this issue, so definitely looks like something I need to get!!

Yes, it is on Simpson Bay. If you go to Sunset Bar and Grill and make a left immediately before going through the archway for (now) Alegria, go down about a quarter mile and take the first left, and go all the way to the end.

Thanks! We're staying at Simpson Bay Resort. Can't wait.

OK, enjoy your stay.

A teaspoon in the neck of the bottle keeps it fizzy for days

Really? Guess there's a lot I don't know about champagne! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

Don't know how it works Carol, but it does?

I learn things here every day! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

apparently the spoon trick is a myth that doesn't really work
