Tuesday, October 17 (Ron)
I got up around 6:30. Lots of thunder and rain overnight, but it’s not raining now and it is clear to the south. Every other direction is pretty dark. Made coffee and went out on the deck to read. Pretty soon Pat got up and we had breakfast. We’re not sure if our plan to go to Orient Beach will work today, depends on the weather. We decide a chance and go to Orient Beach. On the way we stopped at a small store in Marigot and got a loaf of French bread and some Camembert cheese to have for lunch. Got to Orient Beach, rented two chairs and an umbrella and settled in for soaking in the sun. Around five o’clock we packed up and headed for home. We got cleaned up and went down to a café at the Atlantis Casino for a light dinner.
