What a fun day. We headed out to Sloop Jones and you are not kidding when you say he's at the End of the Road. He is. What a treat to visit his place and see his work. Bought a few things and he walked us out to the car- gave my daughter and I a blossom from the Ylanga Ylanga plant that is used in the making of Chanel #5. Definitely a place to go visit! Skinny's for lunch one last time. Got the special o the day: Gouda Bacon Cheeseburger and a Guavaberry Swizzle. Mmmmmm! It was POURING rain, but no one cared....we were at SKINNY"S!! Then on to Cruz Bay for some shopping- rain stopped. Back to our amazing villa for pool time. Phone rang- it was the Bongo boys wanting to know if I was looking at the amazing sunset......30 minutes later, they arrived with champagne...so happy to meet them- and thank them for the use of this beautiful villa ! Full moon tonight thru the telescope- splendid! Last day tomorrow-kids' choice: Trunk Bay again....

We really like Sloop Jones, and yes it is quite the drive out there. Was it raining on you for the drive out there? That must have been pretty scary!
