Regatta Day 4 Last Day Bridge Opening
Whale Tail
5 hours ago
We went down to SMYC for the return of the sailboats after the last day of racing for the show. The yacht club was packed with no tables in sight so I saw our favorite waitress and said can we just stand and order from you and run a tab rather than try to order from a very busy bar. She said follow me and took us to a table for 4 that just became available , perfect!! It was not very long before people asked if they could take the 2 empty chairs to another table which we said no problem. Then we saw Kim (Pats Daughter) come in with her friend Joan and told them if she could find 2 chairs they would be welcome to sit with us. Then our favorite waitress went to a storage area and brought out 2 chairs for them. Which made for a very enjoyable afternoon of conversation.
There were fewer boats than previous years and no water balloons thrown from the sailboats into the crowd at the yacht club but the boats got the super soaker water guns treatment from the bottom of the bridge. It was a good time!!

Regatta Day 3 Tango Day
Whale Tail
Yesterday at 09:04 AM
Well to start off this report it must be said that it was a windy day Very Windy!!! We met another TTOL member in line to get on the boat SeaLady29 always nice to meet fellow TTOL'ers. I didn't get any pictures of them but they got some of us.
Captain Haresh did a fantastic job out there. He maneuvered the boat around so both sides of the boat could get some pictures. There wasn't alot of walking around Tango during the trip and not everyone had a good time under those conditions. It was very hard to get pictures when you have your legs spread apart for stability, one hand on the rail or piece of rigging and the other hand holding the phone to take pictures. To emphasize how tough it was I only had 2 free rum punches the entire trip 
There was sargassum streamers everywhere out on the sea but didn't encounter any big patches.

FeestCafe Welfare Road
Whale Tail
Yesterday at 12:25 AM
We have been meaning to stop by here and finally did today. It is the former Naked Pirate bar on Welfare Rd that is now called FeestCafe which is now operated by Mark and Danita the former owners of Karakters. They have been here for 2 years since leaving Karakters and have a Dutch flavored menu and trying to make a go of it here. We had Chicken Satay and some fries for lunch. It's located between Toppers and Pineapple Pete's on the lagoon. I wish them luck as the restaurant business is pretty tough on SXM. The cars/boats docked on their back deck are operated by a French guy that is still waiting for permits to operate.
When talking to Mark about things going on in Simpson Bay I asked him about what is going on at the former Roxxy site. He said that there is another condo development going in there and has had there project reduced to 7 floors from what the developer wanted. It's the same developer as the one that built the 14 towers in Cupecoy.
Now I don't know this is factually correct I'm just reporting what I heard from him.
