December 21st 2012 St Barthelemy

Arrived outside the port city of Gustavia on the French island of St Barthelemy. So many  yachts that the tender ride is longer than normal. We are on our way in to this island which was fought over by the Brits, French, Swedes, the Knights of Malta, and finally held by the French. Supposedly the most expensive of the Caribbean Islands. Now in the Bar de l’oubl St Barth for connection to wifi. Prices are not so bad in the grocery store along a long string of expensive clothing and jewelry stores. Very chic shopping area. Took hike to top of Gustavia overlook and light house. Strolled back for sandwich lunch along the wharf and over to Shell Beach. Looked at home listings.  Found the one we would like and another that we could afford.
