Marcia, Shelia's Pot is to the left of the Franklin Powell park gazebo.

Thank you for the kind words, Marcia.

She Las Pot is a small stand just outside of the Cruz Bay park (sorry, I don't know the name, but it's the park right by the ferry dock). There's a small, handwritten sign with "She Las Pot" on it. It's not hard to find ... once you know where to look.

Ok, I see the name is Franklin Powell Park -- thanks, liamsaunt!

Great, great report. Well organized. I've copied much of your report for our trip in August. Thanks, SRT

My wife finally had a chance to read what I wrote, and she had a few corrections.

1. We did see skim (aka nonfat) milk in Dolphin one time (priced less than at Starfish), but when we actually needed to buy it, we were shopping at Starfish. But there was another time when we were at Dolphin and they did NOT have any skim milk out.

2. Brownies were $2.50 each at Mosquito Bites, not $2. They were still way worth it!

3. She wanted to make sure you all knew we considered Caneel's $29 per person buffet lunch MUCH more money than we'd usually spend for a lunch (like you didn't know that already? ). It was our 25th Anniversary "meal".

PS - I figured out how to post ONE picture anyway!

LStJ, Thanks for posting the detailed report, what a great read!

I enjoyed your perspective and relate to the tipping issues, too much pressure for vaca for sure!

I chuckled at the comment, "tasted just like water"

Thanks luvinSJ!

I appreciate the budget restaurant ideas! I like to do some cooking and mix in some less-expensive meals on vacation, so that I can spend more money on extras like a private snorkel trip or a few really 'wow' meals. (Or go on vacation more often!)

Sounds like you had a great trip!
