Except right turn out of P de P in a shopping center next to liquor store open for Breakfast and lunch good French food. Maybe someone else here knows the name. Also in that area Lagoonies.

It was a group of about eight, and we all enjoyed our meals. Unfortunately, I can't remember the name, but it was fairly close to Melange.

Of course I can’t remember names of any of them!!

First, I'm scared of heights. Then, as someone said, no bathrooms. Then, it's SXM, I wonder how good the mechanics are. No thanks..... Carol Hill

You couldn’t pay me enough money to go up in that thing! The idea or possibility of lackadaisical construction and/or regular safety inspections done island style would terrify me. But I feel the same way about the Flying Dutchman, at least, I think that’s its’ name. Respectfully, pat "Always keep your words soft and sweet, just in case you have to eat them."

What does it do---go up and down as people want to enter or leave?
