More choices

As of tonight, if you visit the island, you have more choices for places to eat than you would have had two days ago. Howard's Pub has reopened, and Cafe Atlantic opened tonight. No, I didn't go eat there yet, but it won't be long before I do!

Thai Moon - TBA.

I am ready for Thai Moon to move from TBA status to an actual date. I have missed their terrific authentic Thai food. If you haven't tried Thai Moon on a visit to the island, you definitely should. It's a small place, and there's no seating (take out only, and cash only), but it is excellent.

Now I'm hungry...
