Of course aside from clearing in to Sint Maarten, getting our propane filled was our number one priority. On the list as well was washing our laundry (hasn’t been done since Florida); restocking food supplies; and getting Georgie an appointment for blood work that will allow her into Europe.
While trekking around Sint Maarten to work on our chores, we also see for the first time the destruction left by Hurricane Irma. Although the island has cleaned up well, there are still signs everywhere of the chaos that happened only months before.
Finding a good spot to tackle the mountain of laundry we’d accumulated was no small task, but thankfully, we came across Kleanway Laundry. It was a game-changer for us—a bright, clean facility with machines big enough to handle our salty, sun-soaked load from weeks on the water. The staff was friendly and efficient, and we were able to knock out the laundry while catching a much-needed breather from our bustling day. There’s something satisfying about seeing a pile of freshly folded clothes after so long living out of a duffle.
Cheers from Sint Maarten!
Thank you SO MUCH to our Patrons. These amazing supporters help keep us on the boat, our camera equipment up to date, and the videos coming. Without our patrons, these videos would not be possible.
