With reference to the lolos, they're kind of only on my radar if we're in Grand Case at lunchtime walking around and are really hungry but we would never choose them as a dinner destination, but at the same time, we absolutely love the lolo style BBQ rib lunch at Rosie's on Mullet and this in itself would make Mullet a destination beach for lunch in my book, and often does even on the days when the surfs running too hard for me to enjoy beyond it being a great place to catch some rays and read a good book.

But with regard to the green flash, if you missed it, don't feel too badly. I know it exists. Friends have spoken of it. Other friends have photographed it. So very many we know have actually seen it in real time.

I, on the other hand, have been visiting St. Maarten/St. Martin once or twice a year for the past 41+ years and I've never yet seen it so don't feel too bad. Of course, we aren't generally out around sunset in areas where we might get to view it, and I can't honestly say we've actively persued the sight of it when we are......it's always been an 'if it happens - awesome, but if not, oh well - next time perhaps?' type of thing, IMO.

If you're lucky enough to see that most elusive green flash, enjoy the moment and consider yourself fortunate, and if not, well, guess you'll just have to keep returning until you do, or so I tell my DH with every unsuccessful trip. And so far, he's still buying it..... <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/jester.gif" alt="" />
