Speaking of driving, I believe St. Martin driving improves my driving skills. I notice that when I return to Ohio. Much more focused on the road now. Can’t take your eyes off the road in st Maarten ! Right ? Driving is almost an Olympic sport on island !

Wow, Linda, really??? I so look forward to your reports!!!! I assume you were with some friends, since it was a Sunday? They told us that they were slammed on Sunday the 16th. (Which of course was also Father's Day.)

Agree. My wife and I took a cab in st Bart’s. Could not wait to get back to st Martin! But, I may give st. Bart’s another try some day, if I fly over. The ferry over was horrible.

and the road --- not sure what the big deal is. Yes hilly and some tight turns but not that bad I agree. I've never thought that drive was scary or treacherous. Just up and down a couple of hills. No biggie.

jeepers--we went to Auberge Gourmande for our anniversary. Frankly, it was ok. Tough beef filet?? We had better meals at Cote Plage, Le Piment, Anse Marcel Beach Club and Kakao, considering the price paid for each. Cote Plage was the best, and was head and shoulders above Auberge, for almost exactly the same price. For the PRICE, the carry out pizza we got at Al Dente was a great value and was very good also.

Enjoyed your photos and comments and knowing all good things must come to an end, hoping all goes well from this point on. Safe travels, Carol and Eric!!
