We celebrate our wedding anniversary during the third week in October and for the last 5 or 6 years celebrate in St Martin. This year we celebrate our 40th anniversary and plan to celebrate there again. We too were there right after Omar, and again last year after Gonzalo came through on Monday, we flew in on Saturday. On all the previous trips, there has never been enough restaurant closing to affect the trips. Most of them start opening the first few weeks of the month. The water is warm, the island is not crowded, and the friends that we have made that are there during the same time of the year are the nicest people that you could ask for. We look forward each year to this time of year and help us extend our summer just a little longer. We have been to St. Martin on cruise stops many other times of the year, but October is our favorite time.
