New Years Eve was an action-packed fun-filled day! Unfortunately, Danny had to work until 4pm. On the way to work, Kayo stopped by to say hi to his new bearded partner in crime, Leo.
I then met up with my friend to go explore town. We first went to Charlotte Amalie before the cruise ships unloaded. The historic part of Charlotte Amalie has cool old stone hallways inbetween all the stores. Its easy to get lost, but so cool when there aren't thousands of cruise ship passengers there.
While in town, we stopped at Glady's Cafe for a rum punch. Glady was working and let us try all her home-made hot sauces on crackers. Breakfast of champions - Rum Punch and Hot Sauces! Delicious! We both bought the yellow sauce.
After walking around town and shopping a little, we headed over to Frenchtown planning to hit up the Champagne bar or sushi restaurant. Both were closed, so we end up wandering around Frenchtown to take a few photos. Love this lizard on the Buddah!
After wandering around, we end up grabbing a snack and champagne at a seafood restaurant.
My friend then introduced me to my new favorite restaurant. Its the green building below called Roti Palace, where we picked up dinner. West Indian Roti is a popular food here. Danny and I usually have them every Friday. But the ones from Roti Palace are the best. Roti is kind of like a wrap made with naan bread. All are different but usually inside is curry, potatoes, veggies and some sort of protein: Tofu, chicken, conch, lobster or goat.
We also stopped by a local West Indian bakery and got some Dumb Bread and Butter Bread. Then stopped by a Old Years festival and headed back to Red Hook. Danny was getting off work by then. So, we stopped by happy hour and hung out with our friend who was working at the skate shop. Once she got off, we all went and had a nice dinner at XO. Then rang in the New Years with a few new friends at Duffy's Love Shack. I love the classy ball they dropped!
HAPPY NEW YEARS!!!
