Day 4 Trip Report - Sunday - 02/02/2021 08:02 PM
Another beautiful day in SXM(for all you getting dumped on"). Started with my fresh squeezed oj and a cheese omelet. Wind and waves were stronger than past couple days. Spent the day on our deck lounges that included a few naps. Got a little red. Snacks for lunch. Went on the elZafiro Onservation Deck and photoed an AA plane landing about the time our friends John and Cyndi were suppose to land. Dinner tonight was suppose to be at The Palms, but as we drove towards it, the sign was off and the front doors closed.....OK, Plan B, The Dinghy Dock. A longtime favorite from their/our days in Oyster Pond. Caribbean Fish and Chips. Portion is big enough that we could share the meal. Comes with fries and slaw. With the Fish and Chips, a Captain and Coke, and a plain Coke, the bill was $31, no service included. Then it was unto Port d'Plaissant casino. They've done a good job separating machines, most people were wearing masks, temperature taken as you enter. Norm up a little, Betty down. They've cleared the road across the end of the runway. Piled 2 or 3 feet of sand between the beach and road, hopefully to keep the waves from flooding the road again.
