Thanks for the note. Where else have you eaten on island? Where are you staying?

We are here. Arrived on Friday the 14th. Stayed at Club Orient the first night as we had Saturday to Saturday at the Atrium and needed somewhere for one night. The first two days the water at Orient was clear and good beach. Yesterday, I noticed a change in current and water conditions. The water clouded up and more current. It was just a preview of things to come. Today, when we arrived at Orient, the water was coming in so far it had created a cliff, and most of the beach only had room for one row of chairs. In front of the Perch, there were no chairs. It was so bad, they had set some chairs and umbrellers up on the volleyball court due to no room on the beach. It appeared that with abnormal high tides, a full moon and on shore winds, the beach sand was being carried out. I saw on the Weather channel, the east coast of Florida was experience high tides and it appears that was the case at Orient. We have 10 more nights on the island so hopefully things will improve.

We have been here a week now and have 8 more days to go. The weather has been perfect and except for that one day with strange high tides, the water has been clear and beautiful. Friends are flying in today so looking forward to another great week.
