We got a later start yesterday (still recovering from our 3AM wakeup Saturday), so went to one of the larger beaches where we knew we could get a sandy spot far away from any other people: Cinnamon

This is a beautiful beach, and the National Park offers camping behind the beach here, both tent and cottage, if you are into camping.  The facilities are all new post Irma/Maria--the cottages just opened up last month., and from what I can see, it looked really nice for a camping setup.

 

Here is our favorite spot, way at the end, shady, away from the crowds and the people with their (illegal and annoying) bluetooth speakers on the beach

For dinner we went to Dave and Jerry's Island Steakhouse.  Menu pictures

I forgot to take a picture of the cocktail menu again. Husband's chose the margarita of the day, which was guava

We got two appetizers to share.  I chose a special, which was three scallops seared and served with a basil puree, with grapefruit and crispy prosciutto

And husband got the smoked salmon caesar salad because he was not going to order any veggies with his steak

They did not have any fish specials last night, so I just got the same tuna I had back in January.  It was very good again, so I was happy with it.

Husband chose the ribeye steak and a six ounce lobster tail (offered on special).  He ate the lobster tail and a little less than half the steak, plus he had a glass of wine.

I guess their wine by the glass list is pretty bad, so he had to order a bottle to get something that he wanted.  You can take unconsumed alcohol with you from the restaurants here, so we brought the remaining wine home for another day. The steak came back with us too and I will make it into a breakfast for him.  We were both way too full for dessert.

 

We got home in time to catch the last colorful skies from the sunset over St. Thomas from our deck.
