Monday on the island

i so want to break out in a few lines from Jimmy Buffett's Coconut Telegraph. But all the lines aren't dead and there is always some kind of juicy news.

Maho was a bit quieter yesterday. There will still a few tarpon and rays hanging out, but fewer bait fish. I think they have thinned the "herd". Enjoyable snorkel. We were able to see the reef fish that were there this time instead of millions of fish swarming us. Vis was a little bit less on the way out, so when those large tarpon cruised by, there was always a bit of "oh, really big fish".

Tried the Banana Deck for lunch, first, time for us. Quite enjoyable. Food was good and a nice breeze. Also first time using the parking lot down by the car ferry. Downtown was parked solid. Not a bad walk, just don't make the mistake of taking the really, really, really steep hill up into town. I needed a glass of water to go along with my Amstel. :lol:

Weather is still amazing. Tiny shower yesterday. Hopefully, it will hold through tomorrow, dinghy day!

So, is there some sort of cut through that allows you to skip the roundabout, and then drop into town?
