Sint Maarten 2013

We left Suriname but had a stopover in Sint Maarten to have a little mini vacation before going back to Seattle. As you can see the beaches are nice especially on the island's French side.

Monique thought the waves weren't that big until they knocked her over and she couldn't stand up again.

The French side has a "Harmony Nights" on tuesdays with a parade, lots of stuff for sale and the cafes are open late.

We did a snorkeling tour too with Captain Alan that was soo fun.

At the street market in Marigot I finally found some hair!
