Thursday was the day to visit the island for the first time in a few years. We walked through the town with Rusty and Nancy, visited a few shops, talked to the locals, and ended up finding Bob and Stephanie in Big Dogs waiting for their fresh bread to be ready. After a short visit there, we headed back to Staniel Cay Yacht Club for happy hour and a great dinner. Stephen and Pam joined us for dinner, and Joe and Julia showed up later for a post-dinner happy hour.
The town is so neat, with a combination of both beautifully groomed and junky-looking lawns, colorful cottages, and unique shops and homes. The foliage is also gorgeous, with a surprising combination of plants.

| Even though Stephanie told us to "get a life," Bob and I thought this was a wonderful invention -- baby seat attached to the lid! And the coast was totally clear when Bob went in the Ladies' Room with me to see it and take a photo. |
