Have you ever seen a sign at a garbage bin that you are not allowed to dump your garbage during the day? Maybe they do it here because it looks so digusting and smells so ugly that people should not go there during the day? Or was the smell coming from this small river? Never on another caribbean island we have seen so much dirt than on the french ones. The dinghy dock here in Marigot stinks like they pee all over it every night. This floating swimmingpool was built in front of the beach in Grande Case. In 2 days we saw NOBODY swimming there. Of course, the beautiful beach is right around it and it is the same sea water. since it is only a floating pontoon. But the fun thing is: It is paid by the European union! Anyone wonders where the money goes? We went to Marigot this morning to clear out. You remember that they had printer problems, right? Guess what: YEAH, they send me again to Fort Luis marina. So we have customs office which is not able to do their duty. Even though nothing is...

The beach here is here very nice with clear water. The dinghy dock is fairly old and rotten and so is the main dock which already collapsed. Anchorage is good holding on sand in around 3m of depth and near by there are some rocks which are supposed to be good for snorkeling. There is a small buoy there for dinghies. Lani enjoyed playing in the sand and unfortunately we have to leave today back to the immigration because they did not clear us out. Lets hope they have fixed their printer problem!
