St Maarten/St.
Martin / July 2001
This year we invited Tony's best friend Tom and his girlfriend Nancy, and
Cheri's best friend Kris. Again staying at The Oyster Bay Beach Resort for 7 days
and then with just Kris staying with us for an extra 2 nights at Club O.
This trip though we found The Sunset Beach Bar where topless women drink for
free.


The rooms had a great view overlooking Dawn Beach and a few days we
enjoyed just relaxing down there, especially by Scavenger's. This year
we were more adventurous and we found so many exciting things to do and places
to see.


The best find was Philippe and his boat "Bluebird". For one full day
at a cost of $600 (including Champagne and snacks) we sped off to snorkel off
the coast of St. Bart's. Ate lunch on The Baie de St. Jean and then had
cocktails at Cap Juluca on the island of Anquilla.



We ended the day watching the sunset by La Sammana.

And Le Planteur was becoming our favorite spot for dinner.

Orient Beach was the best place to soak up the sun
the.






We also found in Grand Case "The Talk of the Town", a wonderful
inexpensive street BBQ.



Shopping in Grand
Case and on the beach was fun too.

Even getting dressed for dinner became a photo op

Anybody want to rent these two girls for the day?
Skinny dipping at Captain Oliver's pool became a tradition on a few late
nights after Le Planteur.

We spent quite a lot of time at The Marigot Marina mainly because that's where
"Bluebird" was moored but we also got to know the owner of Le
Village and Le Galion.

We did have a crazy evening/night at The Sunset Beach Bar.
Kris and Cheri did get a new recruit
