the beach, no seaweed! then shopping

. . . interesting note, Diana, about getting a “resident discount,” because it’s a concept that’s widely denied by merchants who will respond about the matter. A very nice privilege of your local status!

Lovely sandals! Now that I've seen the picture I know exactly which store you're talking about. Sad to see them go.

I went by the shop that is liquidating in Gustavia. she said closing of the store will happen on saturday. I got the last pair of size 8 shoes. she still has many pairs in other sizes left. also, got the dda a couple of linen shirts. I then went to a few stores in st. jean, got a beautiful linen blouse, it was not on sale but once I tried the blouse on, had to have it, she gave me a resident discount because it was new merchandise. perhaps more stuff tomorrow?

the beach at saline had no seaweed, not even at the end. those guys do a great job.

I agree that some merchants on the island do not wish to give the discount, but when the owner is at the shop it can be different story, and as the owner said to me this morning, I saw that you were at the protest with Helene, I am definitely giving you a discount.
