Louise - Thanks so much for all the great info on "weathering a bad storm" in St. Maarten the last few days. We're coming down in a few weeks and if it looked like a sideswipe from a Tropical Storm or Hurricane (like Tammy was) we would have flown down if we could too. What I really appreciated was your insight into what is open, closed, flooded etc during a storm - very helpful for us that like to travel to our favorite island at this time of year. Like Pat always warns us, the conditions can turn dangerous with slides and floods but I'm so glad the sun is out today and you can finally get some beach time. Thanks for sharing your tropical adventures, I made notes!
