Day 3: Breakfast at the villa, then off to Pinel. The ferry was about half full, most everyone was wearing masks while waiting, and on the trip over to the island. Karibuni was closed, but Yellow Umbrella was packed! Got chairs, umbrellas and Mai Tais, which were delicious. Had a late lunch around 2:30 pm. By that time, all the fish selections were sold out. Had cheeseburgers and fries, which were good. Left Pinel at 4:30, nobody wore masks on the return trip. Had snacks at the villa and enjoyed the pool and Ma Doudou in the evening.

Day 4 (today): Emailed an order to Emma at Fabulous Feasts for dinner today and tomorrow. It was a rainy morning, so we didn't head to the beach until noon or so. Nobody home at the south end of Orient, so we turned left and got chairs at Sun Beach Clubber. There were maybe 20 people there. We walked the entire length of Orient again today. Along the entire stretch of the beach, there were 3 options; Sun Beach Clubber, Le String, and Bikini. The places that were open had small crowds. During our first 4 days on the island, we have not encountered any other Americans on the French side. I'm sure that there must be a few, but not many. The roads between the airport and Grand Case are in horrible condition! You might be able to go 20 - 25 MPH in that stretch. Beyond Grand Case, the roads are better. The road through Grand Case is in bad shape too. The island is still a LONG WAY from recovering from Irma. Very sad, to say the least. We are hoping that when we return next May, things will more resemble what we enjoyed on our previous trips. Time will tell...
