It sounded like they had paid the tax, but were trying to get it back, based upon the letter. Did I misunderstand the article?

Enzo, I can't wait, pasta e fagioli, and your Ossobuco were always two of my favorites. About 90 days to go. Good luck with your new endeavor.

Are they maintaining the course in Anguilla? Is the property up for sale? I'd like to know what the story is on that? Does anyone on here know?

37. Re: fishing st martin

I've rented a 20' century and done some inshore fishing. Trolling caught mostly small tuna and barracuda. Stopped in a few bays and caught bonefish and others. I think it was aquamarine or something like that. A couple doors towards the airport from Ric's which I guess, has a new name.

Nice report. Turtle Pier has appeared to have taken a turn for the worse after the ownership change.

46. Re: light tackle fishing

We rent a boat from a place a few doors down from Ric's Cafe, I forgot the name, and do some inshore trolling. We usually catch small tuna and barracuda.

48. Re: Banning plastic on the island

We timeshare owners should keep one or two in each unit, so we never need to add to the plastic problem. One in the trunk of each rental car might be a good idea also.

55. Re: SXM vs other islands

Did a week in DR. You definitely can't drink the water or use ice from ice machines. Spent most time in resort, Did take taxi to play golf and go to a nearby casino. Highlight was my wife hit slot machine for $1800. I don't think I'd go back, but it was inexpensive. You get what you pay for.

I wouldn't play it in August. There would be better and cheaper courses at home. I do play it in March when my local courses are under snow.

59. Re: need info on about everything

As you'll be right next to the bridge, you can head towards P'Burg when it's open. If it's your first time on the island, you might only want to rent a car for a few days, as there's a lot to do in your area. Or you might take a bus to a beach or town,

60. Re: shopping /ships docked

I would also suggest shopping after 4 pm. Most of the cruisers are heading back to their ships.
