Driving around St Maarten


We put Sharon in the driver’s seat for the third day in a row, and began the tour around the island. There are several small mountains on island, and some of the roads were so steep that Sharon had to downshift the automatic transmission all the way to Low in order to keep the car moving up the hill. It freaked me out more than a little bit, and there was more than once that I had my eyes shut.
