We get to CSA about noon or so, check in is a breeze, room not ready but room request honored, third floor corner unit in a BFVS. They tell us to leave our stuff and head out to eat drink and get merry. We walk down the path to the ocean and when we hit the beach we run into an old friend we haven't seen in 5 or 6 years from the Southeast where we used to live. Hugs, greetings and gotta get a drink! We find his wife on the beach, sit down and catch up for a little bit, soon it's time to feed the beast (me) and the wife is hungry as well. Head to the Cabana Grill for patties and jerk and a few more drinks. Food is good, but all I can think about is jerk chicken pasta I had at Ivan's last night. Wait, a memory just came back, YES I had pasta for dinner last night, did I like it, oh hell yes I did.

It's about 2:00, we head back to the beach, the clouds are rolling in a rain is fast approaching. I decide that I should check on the room and see if its ready, I leave my wife with our friends who are running up to their Premier Beachfront Suite and head to the office. Room is ready but with the hard rain they don't want to deliver the luggage. I find a bellman and ask if he has a raincoat and a few big garbage bags. I tell him to cover the luggage with the bags and we can do this, I will even help. He disappears for 3 minutes, comes back with a luggage cart with a waterproof cover and he has on a raincoat, SCORE. I dump the luggage, change my soaking wet clothes and head over to our friends porch. They have Demar, the best beach server on the island delivering drinks from the beach bar (about 25 yards away) in our anger 24 ounce Tervis glasses. Enjoy a sub, a few more drinks and its off to our room to unpack, decorate, unwind, a nap and get our groove on. After a few hours in our room the rain passed us, we showered and went off to dinner.
