Beautiful view of one of the world's oddest places-Saba. I still have a bottle of Saba Spice from a visit over 20 years ago. Murky high-proof rum with
lots of 'herbs and spices' floating inside the 'recycled' liquor bottle. There are only about five different surnames in the phone book-a geneticist's
delight. And then there is the airport and it's FINAL approach.
Great picture!

Amazing picture. Much better than my view of SXM right now 
but I have to say we have still yet to have an issue going through SXM. Arrived 3 plus hours early for our 4:43 JetBlue flight due to logistics and SBC schedule. Security, immigration, etc all fine and no big lines. Sat at the bar for a while. Very relaxing and no stress other than the disappointment of leaving paradise for home. I guess our mid-week flight could be the reason but SXM has been good to us

Great to read it, Jim!
My funny story about the small bar at SXM is that a female bartender there, from the pre-Irma days, came to me at the bar when I was passing through in February. I hadn’t been there or seen her in two years. She looked at me, & without missing a beat, said, “Same thing?” I’m not sure what it says, but she clearly deserved (& got) a good tip!

Was on Saba for a day in 1975, quite the landing yes. Takeoff too when I noticed the door near my seat was ajar & yelled wait to the pilot, his response was...slam it ! Guess we did the job right !
She is an amazing woman who works hard and helps to raise her somewhat irresponable brother's children. Always remembers our names and what we drink.
YES! Amazin’, isn’t she!
