We got Danny a new wedding band while we were in Philipsburg. He opted for Titanium and I think we got a good price on it. I hate buying jewelry from unknown sources because you never if you are getting a good deal or if it's even real. I guess if it turns his finger green we'll know it's fake. :)
We had lunch at a really good restaurant on the board walk called Barefoot Terrace. I had chicken pasta and Danny had chicken with curry and rice. Both dishes were very good! And the prices were not bad, either.
We picked a busy day to go to Philipsburg as there were 3 large cruise ships at the port. The board walk was very busy and tourists were everywhere!
After shopping we headed back to the Resort and got ready for our sunset sailboat cruise. We were shuttled back to Philipsburg where we met 6 other people from our resort. We set sail into the sunset where a cruise ship collided with the sunset on the horizon and it stole our sunset. It was going to be such a beautiful sunset and of course the cruise ship ruined it. We still had a nice time, though. A nice couple that we met gave us a ride back to the Resort that evening and we exchanged email addresses to send each other pictures.
Thursday was the big beach bash with the resort. We took two shuttle buses to Orient Beach. You know, the famous nude beach. We started the morning off by opening a bottle of champagne for our 4th anniversary. By the time we got on the shuttle bus we were both feeling pretty good. When we arrived at Orient Beach we were greeted with rum punch. They were so good you couldn't even taste the rum in them (but there definitely was some in there)! We found an umbrella and chairs on the beach and set up shop where we continued to order all the free drinks we could handle. Danny thought the rum punches were so smooth that he started ordering double rum punches. Let's just say that his day ended by passing out on the beach! But not before a hermit crab race, water balloon toss, a catered lunch and dancing. Okay, maybe he missed the dancing, but I danced while he slept. All in all, it was a good, fun day at the beach.
Outside of our resort was a 5 star restaurant called Big Fish. We had our anniversary dinner there and the food was delicious. I had seafood pasta (I know, I'm a pasta addict) and Danny had "O's Favorite"...as in Oprah's Favorite. Apparently she likes Big Fish, too. We had a nice romantic dinner under the stars to celebrate the past 4 years but we were both starting to feel a little home sick...
