Finally here and enjoying - Page 3

Yesterday was a lazy morning and afternoon. About 4pm we headed downtown to buy the watch we had picked out.

On the way back to our place we stopped and had the early bird special at Papillion, which was a great deal and the food was fantastic. $29.95 before 7 gets you App, Entree and Dessert. I had the filet and my wife had the grouper.

We decided to go grab one drink after dinner at "Sopranos" and we wound up staying 3 hours! We met some nice people and we were enjoying the music. Got back to our place around 10:30 or so and went for a moonlit swim. Then it was off to bed!

Papillon was our favorite new restaurant this year!

Sounds like you're having a great, relaxing vacation!

Yes - Papillion was great.

Today went snorkeling at Boca Catelina for the morning. Went to Taste of Belgium for Lunch (Excellent Tuna Sandwich). Stopped at Holiday Inn Excelsior Casino and put $25 on the yanks.

We spent our last night at Moomba watching the yankee game. We were very tired though so headed back home and watched the rest from our place.

Had some appetizers at Moomba during the game.

Packing up this morning and back to reality.... at least until 12/27!!

Thanks Shnyda. BTW, I didn't mean to "hijack" your thread, but perhaps we're on to something here: " The I'm Finally Here and Enjoying It" Thread...
