Forgive me if this has been been discussed but we had a very scary encounter today. My husband and I headed to Mullet from Orient via Marigot and instead of bypassing the Marina side, my husband forgot to head left and we went to the right towards the Marina. No big deal, I thought, but I was so wrong. We were met with barricade after barricade of stories high burnt out cars, buses, etc. impassable at certain places. We had to drive on the sidewalks to get by and at one point we came to a dead end. There were people all around and even though it was mid morning, we were frightened. Thankfully, a nice young man on a motorcycle led us out and we got through. I wish that I could have reached my phone to take a few pics but we were just so intent to get out of there. It looks like a war zone. I don't know how those people are living like that. If I were new to St. Martin and happened upon that, I don't think I would come back. We were told that this occurred between Christmas and New Year.
