God is good, it's the morning after, we've had 60 mm of rain, that's a lot in one shot . . . also 40-50 miles winds by 3 a.m. . . . the palm trees tested their ability to go with the flow . . . I was up, listening to the silly radio - it's raining says the neighbor in Ponton. It's raining echoes the alert listener in Savaneta . . . At 2 a.m., the Police tried to evacuate Malmok to no avail, neighbors wouldn't budge.
. . I guess they don't know what a hurricane can do thus there was no sense of urgency, just tension as to what excitement happens next . . . the sea has been high for two days, and it is pounding beaches, but those will come
back you know . . . the eye of Ivan the Terrible passed just 85-105 miles north, we are so lucky . . .
By 7 a.m. I was out with my camera. The Hyatt Regency beach was swept clean. Amazing, no debris, no rubbish, just wet sand! I think we'll be fully back in business by tomorrow, if it stops drizzling! Kids went to school today, Prime Ministerial decree! Enclosed pictures.
