Day 8
Originally planned on spending day at Orient but thought the weeds were to bad so headed over to Happy Bay. Found the path easily and although Dana had her doubts, we made it safe and sound. Really liked this beach, Quiet, not much people. Don't mind not having food, bar etc. Although there was a stand where I saw some folks buying beer. For dinner decided on Calmos Café. We scouted out when we ate in Grand Case earlier. Wanted to get seat for the sunset. Got their early and although the clouds got in the way still got some good pics. Food so so, service same. Probably will not go back. Enjoyed the setting on the beach though.

Day 9

Repeat day. Although my intention was going to a different beach and restaurant each night, we couldn't pass up another day at Mullett. Didn't see Chester today. Got front row chairs and camped out for the day. Stopped at Zee Best for a quick late lunch.
For dinner a repeat of El Dente for their chicken parm again. Dana didn't get it the first time and wanted to try more than the few bites I allowed before. Again delicious, great service.

Enjoyable Day!!!! Unfortunately that means one more day closer to going home

Maybe it was an off night at Calmos cafe. We have been many times & food & service was very good. Servers always happy. We go at least twice in a 3 week visit to island.

johndana next time go to Sunset Cafe at Grand Case Beach Club. You can either eat (great food) in the restaurant that juts into the ocean looking toward sunset or back towards island of Anguilla or just have a drink on the promontory . Romantic setting.
