Sitting On The Dock Of The Bay at da'Vida's Bayside Grill
This past January we spent a lot of time "sitting on the dock of the bay" at da'Vida's Bayside Grill, one of our favorite spots for a lunch-and-beach afternoon.
The restaurant recently installed a floating dock, perfect for docking your boat, catching sun rays, and, my favorite, jumping off of...

On one of our visits to da'Vida's Bayside Grill this year, we arrived to find a full buffet set up and at least a hundred beach chairs lining the bay. da'Vida was a beach-day site for a convention of lawyers and judges from the States in Anguilla on a day trip from St. Maarten.
<strong>Tip:</strong> If you are in need of a site to host a large gathering in Anguilla, da'Vida is the spot!
The party was well accommodated, without making the other guests feel over crowded and not attended to.

Petals Boutique
Kristin and my Mom have nothing but great things to say about Petals Boutique at Frangipani Beach Hotel on Meads Bay.
Checking it out for myself has been high on my (and Yuki's!) list of "Next Time in Anguilla."
We recently had the chance now that we are home for the holidays (for universities in New York we get an "extended holiday" that lasts until the end of January)...

It lived up to its positive reputation!
Petals Boutique is really the top Anguilla-wear outfitter and souvenir shop. They carry many hard to find labels that suit Anguilla's tropical temperatures, and unique and travel-friendly souvenirs for friends at home. Mainly a store for women, I even found a fun gift for my Dad...

</p>
Ripples has long been one of our favorite places for dinner in Sandy Ground.
Laid-back, a cozy atmosphere, great food... How can you go wrong?
Ripples is not only a nice dinner choice. The restaurant is a go-to spot for special events and holidays...
Jacquie, the owner of Ripples, goes all out for special events like Halloween, Thanksgiving in Christmas.
Thanksgiving comes highly recommended by my friend Kristin Bourne!
