Headed out to Graceway IGA supermarket which resembles most western stores, some things were MEGA expensive, some fruits and veggies, a 6 pack of sam adams was 19$ ugh but the turks head beer 12$ and just as good if not better (I went with 3 6 packs because..)
They didnt have disposable grills and I found that half the store employees didnt speak basic english, but I was advised to check out business solutions across the street. By then the guy had to leave so he took me back, I unloaded groceries and headed to green beans coffee shop where my bike was left off, I biked out to smiths reef but no place to lock bike meh and few people and I was worried my stuff would be stolen.
Next trip I need locks for my backpack, to lock it closed to bike etc? so i just sat at the amazijng waters and then biked to business solutions and wisely realized that a disposable grill was not very smart so I bought an electric grill

Business solutions T and C is like combining every big box store you can think of, its hillarious its like they have 1 of EVERYTHING without any sense of direction.
I squashed this i my backpack and headed back but lamely just cooked dinner and missed sunset, headed to pool for a swim and then after dinner headed out to town except there was really nothing in that area besides a few lame bars
So the next morning I headed back to green beans then on advice biked to the bight and beach, stayed by beach a few hours, swam a bit, ate lunch I packed and biked down to grace bay, popped in bike shop, checked the area out.. there is a much better graceway supermarket, more upscale, maybe a tad more expensive but i think worth it, every one spoke good english and they were more practically stocked.
My issue was that biking a night there is a disaster, I cant cope with the darkness and the cars on the different sides of the road!
I headed down grace bay road a bit to check out the famed grace bay beaches then headed back to turtle cove where I stayed, I stopped at the gransvoort for a beer and to watch the sunset and I got to watch a couple get married.
Wednesday I got smart, this time I vowed to bike to whole island, but see this was a fundamental error I made where this should have been my agenda tuesday with wednesday bejing to chalk sound and sapposdilla
So I headed out early stopping at multiple beaches and its astounding because from beach to beach its so different and beautiful, I think part has tio do with the island curves and the ocean current
So I made it to club med area which is just NOT NORMAL!!!
So heres the thing, every time I took a pic and looked at the pic and then the real thing, I scoffed, the pix did not the least bit justice to the real thing but I look at the pix now and I am stunned!
Leewrard has fantastic beaches.. and seriously if tznius is an issue for you, there was so many stretches of beaches for MILES with no human in site! Then I biked to blue bay marine and sadly back to hotel with some stops and watched sunset on beach.
