Good morning from sunny Saint Barth! I have been meaning to post since we got back on Sunday but the time has flown by... Rosemond did very well with the flight back, he even made it up the steps of the plane on his own. We flew on St Barth Commuter, which has very nice Cesna Caravans, a million times better than the plane for Air Antilles Express. Our friend Jean-Marc Césaire came with us, which was a great transition from Guadeloupe to Saint Barth and as he is also vice-president of our film festival association, we met with the accountants twice to do all the annual paperwork and to prepare the fund raising request for the Collectivity, and I will drop that dossier off this morning (only two days late but I hope they will excuse us...). There was a wonderful welcoming committee at the airport, including Jo-Anne and Albert, and Art and Lindy, and a few members of Rosemond's family. Our first stop was Flamands to see Rosemond's mother, an emotional reunion for him.
Rosemond now has a nurse, Anne-Françoise, who comes every morning, and a physical therapist, Patrick, who comes to the house as well at around 11am for a one-hour session. We are comfortably settled in at my sister-in-law Juliette's house, which has a fabulous view of the lagoon in Grand Cul-de-Sac, and we can even see our little bungalow being built from here. Still a work in progress but I hope we can move there in February. I have been to our old house a few times to work and Jean-Marc stayed there and it will be sad to leave it behind, but what has to be, has to be... We hope to go to the opening of an exhibit at the museum in town tonight... more on that later.
Meantime a very special thanks to Randy Gurley of Maya's and Maya's To Go...!
