Five days since arrival, easy though customs, but bags were dropped off carts in crowded tent, no big deal, had great burgers at Buccaneer Bar first night, lot of people there with great music. Sunday grocery shopped at the fabulous new Carrefour by the round-about and at night good food at Green House, only 30% occupied, Mon. visited Flamingo workers as they were leaving for the day, they have one more week before they are out of work, however a few of them will be working for the construction company that is now stripping the building to redo the whole complex. Tuesday, did a small tour, Maho area in bad shape, Cupe Coy, lot of damage to old building, but newer hotels look fairly good along with Marina area pretty good. Dinner at Toppers, only two tables besides ours, great food good price. Wed. easy day and lots of cruise people on Kim Shaw beach, fantastic pizza from La Patrona at night. Today beach day with very few on the beach, no cruisers, and then great great prime rib at the Green house.
