As I said yesterday, Tuesday evening was a trip to Grand Case. It was a beautiful night and we really enjoyed Il Nettuno. Grace had a whole Snapper and I had Linguini And Lobster in a cream sauce. Lobster chunks and 1/2 a tail. Was delicious and the service was great.
Yesterday was spent on the beach. Up until yesterday the breeze was from the east and rather like Aruba. Never really felt the heat. That changed to from the south and died down a bit. The southerly breeze and waves brought some seaweed to Simpson Bay. Not much and not Sargasso. Just grassy seaweed.
Dinner last night at Marios Bistrot. Very good meal. Grace had Stripped Bass and I had Shrimp and Scallops. Both served over crab risotto and broccolini.
Today is pretty still.. Not sure where we are headed. Came to the conclusion that a week in not enough.
Rick and Grace

Sounds great! We need to get back to Mario's, especially due to the new location. We haven't been there in a LONG time.
I agree that a week is too short. Others like longer periods, but I personally like 10 days. Much longer than that, and I get a little antsy and miss my puppies at home too much! Enjoy the rest of your stay!

I think that might be a male/female thing, Rosemary.
My DH is good for a week to ten days but after that he gets 'antsier' by the day. Last year I convinced him we Had to do eighteen days and next trip I'm shooting for three full weeks. Don't know how he's gonna' do but I know I'll be one very happy camper! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />

We've also gradually moved up from a week to 2 weeks in November and love it. When we can, we like to sneak in another week in late/winter or early Spring. The November weather is usually better for us. We like it a bit warmer and with less wind.
That's why I wander and follow La Vie Dansante, that's all I want, La Vie Dansante (JB)
