Yesterday, we went to Saint-Jean beach by the airport.
You can see the exclusion zone marked off with buoys to keep people out as planes take off.
We strolled over to La Plage for a delicious lunch of beef tartare with a red Burgundy and lobster tagliatelle with a Provence rose.
We were entertained by this young lady as she modeled fashions during the lunch.
A delicious and complimentary vanilla rum came with the bill.
Then came the refills from this bottle.
On the way to the men's room one passes the Tom Beach Hotel pool and its guardian.
After lunch I inquired about renting a Hobie at the watersports place
and was told it was too late in the afternoon for today. Perhaps another day if the breeze remains under 13 knots and the waves aren't too big.
Nearby, sailors were preparing to take off for a fast ride on their racy F-18.
Planes were also taking off.
Someone was going for a scuba dive from shore.
Hellie was happily reading and sunning.
Planes landed with important cargo
and took off with passengers for the big airport in Sint Maarten.
... and the beat goes on ...
