Junebug's Visit - Day Six

Day Six was another wake-up-when-you-want day, and I chose this day (Junebug's last...ish) for a girl's day - shopping, lunch, etc.

Around 11 she and I headed down to Yacht Haven Grande for some lunch, we chose a restaurant called Fat Turtle. Yacht Grand opened last year, and there are a few restaurants in there, all of them have outside seating. We grabbed a table by the waterfront, ordered a couple of beers and salads, and hung out for an hour or so enjoying the view.

Yacht Haven is aptly named, it's a harbor for yachts over 65 feet in length, so it's pretty humbling to sit there and gaze at these giants. Here's a couple of shots taken from our table:





A shot of JB and I clinking our beer bottles, cruise ship in the background (docked at Havensight):



After a nice lunch, and a wecome re-introduction of healthy salad to our systems, we got in the truck and drove around to Havensight, right around the corner. Havensight is one of two cruise ship docks, and as a result it has a TON of places to shop for everything jewelry, t-shirts, souvenirs, etc. It has the same shops as Charlotte Amalie (waterfront) does, but it's easier to park and it's slightly nicer (in my opinion).



Here's JB wandering down one of the row of stores:



She picked up some stuff for people back home, we wandered around for awhile, and finally called it an afternoon around 4:30.

We got home, showed the Man our purchases, and hit the showers. T came over around 7 and we all piled in the truck for dinner at the Agave, one of our favorite restaurants. JB was taking us out to dinner as a thank you, so we chose our favorite place. I get one thing, and one thing only there, King Crab legs. SO GOOD. All four of us ended up ordering them, and a couple of hours later we were full, with buttery fingers and crab shells all over the table.

We drove home after T and JB shared a dessert, and crawled into bed. Thanks for dinner JB!! That rocked :)

It has been fun hearing about Junebug's visit! I bet she hated to go home. I have also enjoyed all the pictures of your island paradise adventures!!

Have a great weekend, my friend!
