We leave today after 18 day on the island. We had a great time and the weather was good. Orient beach was good, no seaweed but started to get windy the last few days. The chair rental at club O went up to $180 a week and the rest room is still terrible. It is always sad to look at the old club O buildings and see nothing has happened.

We ate numerous times at the Greenhouse, Pineapple Petes, 3 Amigos, Lee's and the Yacht Club. We stayed at the Simpson Bay Resort and the traffic was always bad around 4 to 6 everyday. Stopped at elegant Jewelers in Philipsburg and picked up a Xmas present.

Yesterday we got a notice from AA that we had to fill out a tracking form before we could print out our boarding passes. Just waiting for our flight back to NC.

Already booked in for next year.

Fair winds and following seas!
