During our shopping, Mike + I decided that St. Barth' s main attraction is shopping for women, so this attracts
1) men like Paul Allen who are looking for women, and
2) gay men like Laguna guys who are really into drag.
One shopkeeper even asked Mike "Aren't you bored here?" since there's not much else to do besides shopping for women's stuff. Plus: I'm a bit "put off" by not speaking the native tongue: french. And when the French answer my french in English.

Tech guy finally fixes the phone which has sophisticated wall jack, and no standard phone jack, so I can't use computer with it!

7:30 * Show Mike our sailing photos* Drive back to Gustavia + eat at Palace. Good gazpacho + salmon + chocolate torte. Restaurant is busy. Blues music.

10:00 We walk past another busy bar, but music is blues there too. Still nothing really busy in town, and because I drank ~ 150ml of gin from 7-7:30, as well as a rum punch before dinner, I'm tired, so we go back to the room + sleep.
