Sounds to me like St. Maarten will soon become the circus-like destination of the Caribbean. One more bow to the cruise lines?

Well, they already have the clowns....

Sad!

I like these new developments on the island. Whatever brings in more revenue for future infrastructure expenditures is welcome by me. I look back at all the negative comments made before the swing bridge came to being and most everybody likes it now.

...which I believe that the causeway and the boardwalk were both ideas put forth by Theo...

Doesn't matter who championed it. Both are great improvements to St Maartens infastucture.

That was my point, actually, that he has made some valuable improvements to the island.

Thanks Carol and also the Port Harbour .

Thanks for clarifying that. I thought he did a lot for the island too.

And apparently enriched himself in the process.

Apparently--as does every politician, I guess.

Thanks Carol , no one is perfect and God Almighty.
