CHARLOTTE – We adjourned our meeting at about 4 and Barbara and I got a lifetime surprise. We were moved to a swim-out Luxury Suite in the Dutch Village. To add amazing to amazing, Sandals took care of the entire move even giving us a personal cell phone to use on-site. Dinner tonight was at French Restaurant Bayside. For Phil French Onion Soup. Escargot and the specialty Cordon Bleu for Barbara French onion soup and the Cordon Bleu. We enjoyed a little quiet time in a cabana for 2 on the beach while attesting to the highly-rated sunsets on the beach. An evening show had us on our feet happy and singing along. The talent at this resort is top-notch after a great night’s sleep in our new digs Sunday brought another great breakfast followed by a non -denominational Church service at 10 am. That left lots of free time at all 3 water venues. Our private deck and swim-out area, a long private beach with a ton of choices for beach beds, or the best pool ever just ten feet from our swim-out area. We tried all 3 and spent the most time at the pool. With a zero-entry area, a large jacuzzi, and the best bar on this side of Texas, we were more than pleased. Dinner brought the Italian restaurant and 3 of the best waitstaff ever. Drinks were brought in every time our ice clinked.

I had a healthy choice of Pasta with Planet Vegan Meatless Meatballs and Sauce. Thank you to our granddaughter Brooke for teaching me to be on the lookout for healthier food. Barbara had Chicken Parmigiana that was perfect. Another amazing show brought us to show tunes that had us singing along again. Back to our suite for a quick dip in our private swim-out pool and no trouble at all falling asleep.

Come along on our next adventure. Phil and Barbara are proud Mint Hill Chamber Members. We can be reached anytime at (980) 406-1650, phil.angelo@leisuretravelexpert.com, or in person.
