Well after waiting a year for one of my favorite places for a hamburg it was off to "Skinny's". Cindy and I are becoming more interested in staying in Coral bay and are contemplating a April visit which would be a first for us, we have been visiting only once a year for the past 4 years but it is getting to the point thats not enough.

We always enjoy the "roadhogs"

The friendliness of everyone we have met in the Coral Bay community is what is drawing us there.

Well after a great lunch it was off to one of our favorite beaches. Most of you will recognize the beach.

and the lone visitor, we had the entire beach to ourselves.

after relaxing for a couple of hours it was back to the villa for some drinks, good music and making more friends with our visitors.

this guy was pretty cool but as soon as I touched him he curled up.

this was also cool watching these birds just "hover" in the air while they "scoped" out prey below.

well another fantastic trip to STJ in the archives, cannot wait to return hopefully in April for a Coral Bay experience. Final sunset to say so long.

Great photos, and so happy to hear about another relaxed & funfilled trip.
Thank you so much for the views.
You caught them all.
I miss that "St.John" place...
I have NO IDEA where the beach pictures were taken, by the way.
-Hawksnest...?
-Oppenheimer...?
Smiles :wink:

Hello Jimmy, thanks for the kind words. I figured you would guess the beach over everyone else, it is Maho and Cindy and I were very surprised that we were the only ones there. Anyhow I am sure you are looking forward to your upcoming trip in May. I am sure you and Amy will have a FANTASTIC" time. Well wishes to your brother hope he is doing well. Take care

John
