Arrived from Charlotte last Monday 30 minutes early with high expectations. We finally cleared immigration two hours later. We watched multiple later arrivals go through while we stood there dripping. This was the most disorganized system I have ever been in. Things got better when we exited and saw Lesley smiling as we walked out. Traffic up to Orient,where we are staying,was awful. We met our villa manager,got all the pertinent info and finally relaxed. Before unpacking,we decided a drink was in order so we walked to Maison Mere for drinks,an appetizer and desert. All was very good and Mark,the bartender,made a great impression.
Tuesday started with coffee and pastries from good morning. Definitely feeling like we’re back on island. Breakfast was followed by massages in the villa by Fabienne.
We have used many masseuses over the years and Fabienne is near the top of the list. It wasn’t just her technique, it was her whole attitude.Tuesday night was a light dinner in,then drinks and dessert again at Maison Mere.
To be continued.
