Joni, Maybe it's just me, but why not just get what you need before your cruise ship leaves in Ft. Lauderdale? And i would then to agree with Jazzgal, unless it's juat a couple of bottles of water, i doubt the cruise line would let you board with a few cases of bottled water. And on another note, you are only in St Maarten for the day, why not take the time to enjoy this great i

I`m with you ANON....i would not waste any vacation time on this. Just call the rental car company, and they will come and do it. Unless you hit something and you are at fault. But even if it were that, i`m pretty sure some of the more reputable companies would change it at no charge

Were you there for part of the evening, because i mentionned your name, and she said you served them?? Or is there another Philippe? Here is what she e-mailed me..... Excellent!!!!! Went to Captin Oliver’s last night – it was excellent – we had Philippe – he was excellent. We had a lot of fun.

Philipe, i have some friends, 3 couples, on their first trip to the island, and had dinner at Captain Oliver's last night, and were really impressed. She just sent me an e-mail saying they had an excellant dinner.....

We'll be making our first trip in the July 4th timeframe, as we usually go in August. Philipe, we'll definitely visit for a meal, having never been to Capt.Olivers. Have only heard and read great things about it since you have been there. I imagine the usual Baywatch and Orient July 4th party also.

It would be like in "ah", and the "s" pronounced more like a "z".... So, to me, being French Canadian, it would sound like "Grahn Kahz"

Pierre is a great guy, and will give you his point of vue. But he has been on SXM for a few years, before he opened Pineapple Petes, and all over the Caribbean. So, paperwork probably was a bit different for him, but, yes, would be a good source of information.

Dennis, I thinkg you should publish a book, with all you SXM pictures. They are just great....

I received an e-mail from Denis, Club O manager, and apart from a few trees that are down, there is no damage. Perch and Boutique open later this morning, and Papagayo's will be open for dinner..

Probably because you are outside north america....there is La Chapelle in Orient Village that maybe would show it, or like i mentionned, try a few Casinos... Or you could alway listen to it on the webradio at www.cjad.com

Casinos would be your best solution. Also, if you have a laptop, you can get it on www.nhl.com

I was on an Airbus, flying from Winnipeg, Manitoba to Montreal, Quebec, when we made an unscheduled stop to Sault Ste Marie, Ontario. We were just told that for security reasons, we were landing immediately. So many things go through your mind....!!! But as we landed, at this small community airport, and were seeing 3 or 4 other large planes, one behind the other landing, we figured something
