At first the weather began to clear. But then… it returned with a vengeance. So, we never made it off the island. Because of bad weather the planes couldn’t fly. So now we are back in the hotel. Until Monday. The good news—It’s a fabulous hotel. After all, there are worse places to get stranded. So tomorrow we will explore the island a bit more. And needless to say, the weather has cleared up, but too late to make a difference. Oh well. C’est la vie.

Here are some photos I took while we waited for the bad news.

At the moment we are fogged in at St Mary’s airport. Our flight, which was originally scheduled for 9:40 AM has been rebooked for a 12:55 flight this afternoon. We’ll see how that works out. In the meantime, judging by the reaction of the crowd waiting for various flights out, this doesn’t seem to be all that unusual.
