114 days until the wheels touch the ground in Paradise. We booked an apartment on Orient Beach actually 60 feet to the beach. We will deal with whatever presents itself but look forward to being back. I will let you all know what we find. Carib cheers, doctorj
We?re here now for 6 weeks. Work is being done though slowly. Most of the beach is cleared of debris except for the newer beach bars and shops close to club O. The debris from Pedro?s also has not been cleared. Just this week an excavator has begun to clear debris from club O although the damaged buildings have not been touched. Only loose debris has been put in piles. Each day we see trucks with debris from the area being brought to the dump area near cul de Sac. Little by little progress is being made. Just hope the french government gives the approval for the businesses to get back.
That's by design. The property owners put out a contract just to clean debris which we were told was awarded at around $100K. Demolition of beyond repair buildings and repair of salvageable ones begins once the debris is gone. Can't wait to visit in September, even if just a day trip on a cruise.
