Unrest in Sandy Ground ruralcarrier 51 minutes ago From what I can see from some social media posts, it appears the bridge is blocked in Sandy Ground, fire on the bridge and who knows what else. I would avoid the area if at all possible.

Some info and pictures HERE

Mouse BBQ food truck in Cupecoy AUCspouse Yesterday at 09:18 PM We recently had another meal at the Mouse BBQ food truck in Cupecoy. (It's located in the upper part of the Starz Casino parking lot, near the entrance to the American University of the Caribbean.) The cheerful owner's name is Jerry.

We ordered the creamy fish soup -- which included mussels. Along with a couple of Johnny cakes, it made for a delicious and filling meal.

The shaded patio in front of the food truck includes a table with dominoes, for those of you who want to play a game of chicken-feet.
Thumb's up -- give the place a try.

stairs at the back of airplanes gitter Yesterday at 07:34 PM Good afternoon,
I may be showing my age and I think I know the answer but here it is.
Do they still roll steps to the rear exit doors of the airplane?
It was always a treat to stroll to the carts for the ride to the terminal. Thank you in advance,
gitter

New Business Being Built Across The Road From The Rib Shack Whale Tail Yesterday at 02:50 AM I posted a picture of the new structure across the road from the Rib Shack and Scubaman asked me to find out what it is. I haven't got the answer yet, but there has been progress there as the pic from yesterday shows. There has never been anyone there when we walked by.

Now just my feeling but when I saw it I told my wife that it has similarities in construction to Babacool's. As in the use of shipping containers in the construction as the back walls of this new building. Babacool's used shipping containers for the pool there.

Then today talking to a couple from Quebec in line to check luggage who were flying Air Transat to Montreal that were staying at Flamingo. They asked me if I have ever stayed at the other Hilton property Royal Palm. I said yes but it is to close to Nowhere Special for the loud music. He replied do you know that Nowhere Special is owned by a man from Quebec, as is Babacool's. District 721 also had loud music.

The mystery continues.

Where to buy a hair dryer near Orient or Grand Case? IslandBound9 01/17/2026 11:48 PM Greetings! We had a lovely travel day. Flight was on time, gates worked at airport and it was maybe 25 minutes from when we landed until we were en route to Orient. Traffic wasn't even that bad. I was sure the travel Gods were smiling on us until we unpacked and I realized I forgot to pack my French voltage hair dryer. We're in a rental vs hotel so can't call for one. Not the end of the world but I'm wondering if there is somewhere in the Orient Bay/Grand Case area where I can purchase one. I checked Super U when we were provisioning and they had nothing. Appreciate any thoughts/ideas?

Thank you, Ellie
