And that will be bad...........they need to build a power plant! Those old crappy generators can't do the job..... Ridiculous.

There were a couple of nights we lost power at Mullet Bay and I remember an evening in the 80s when the power went out. We had probably one of our nicest island meals out on the point at Sonesta, and we dined by candlelight out of necessity. Candles, wine......the whole magilla and NO KIDS !! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> Respectfully, pat "Always keep your words soft and sweet, just in case you have to eat them."

Had to sit outside with candles and oil lanterns. But it didn't help the food inside! Yuck! Ms B was there. We shared a chair and I fell off. LOL i

Anyway I called someone to go in the villa and check the refrigerator. I had it stocked with food for our return. Cost u Less raw chicken, raw meats etc. I can't believe I did not throw away the refrig but had someone clean it out for me.
