Same condo breakfast as yesterday

We spent the day snorkeling again, and had better luck finding lots of creatures hiding inside the mostly dead reef. I still have not looked at our underwater photos yet.  At this point I will probably wait until I am home, since tomorrow is our last full day.

 

We took a sunset sail from the hotel side of the resort. Leaving from the beach

I was able to get a better shot of the ruined house I am obsessed with. It is massive.

I suggested that my husband buy me this waterfront property.  A reasonable request, don’t you think? 😂

A view of St. John across the water.  This side of the island is where most of the residences and businesses are. The other side is mostly National Park and undeveloped.

There was food on the boat, but we didn’t eat much since we were going to dinner. I saw caprese skewers, shrimp seveche, chicken sliders, and goat cheese tarts go by. There was an open bar too, but we just relaxed and took in the views.

Back to the resort, and then out to dinner

We went to Three Palms.  Menu

Drinks. Husband had a cucumber cocktail, and I had club soda

We shared the gambas ajillo, which were nice and garlicky. They were in a deep bowl, so it was hard to get a picture of them.

Husband also wanted to order the lobster dumplings. He liked them. I tried a bite but wasn’t in the mood.

I had the swordfish, which was nicely cooked

And he had the mahi, which was also perfectly cooked

 

IMG_6873.thumb.jpeg.362a34c75ac6d2a6cdfbc1f364f92e4a.jpeg

 

Dessert was a passionfruit panna cotta with guava crust and mango. We did not like this. It was too bitter.  The rest of the dinner was really good though, so we did not mind too much.
