We rented a car at the cruise port on Wednesday, Feb 6. We were going to Marigot and the rental agent warned us that a demonstration was going on that had blocked the traffic. He had heard this on the radio. It was about 10 am local time. We called our friends in Marigot who told us the demonstration was over. We saw no sings of a demonstration by the time we got to Marigot. Apparently that demonstration was over back pay that was owed to Government workers. The French government had provide the funds to the local government but they had not passed it all down to the employees yet. They must have used the funds for something else. Anyway, I am glad we checked and did not the rental agent. I am not faulting him, he was just going by what he heard.
