As you all know Noel has passed and the lodge is up and running.
The staff prepared the lodge in the event of a Hurricane, although Noel never reached such status. We laid sand bags, covered up window, doors, and valuable equipment. We moved all outside furniture to a protected area, set up protective nets around all cabins and cut the power leaving only the necessary areas with electricity. We relocated all boats to a sheltered area in Davis Creek, secured all items on the dock and locked down the dive centre.
The brunt of the Tropical Storm hit Thursday morning. By the late afternoon the wind died down and the sea clamed. Lucky the lodge sustained no damage. Only minimal clean up of the grounds was needed, due to the collection of debris deposited by wind and tidal surge.
We re-opened this morning, Friday Nov. 2nd with our first guest arriving this afternoon. The sun is out, the airports are open, the wind has died, and it is time to get outside and enjoy the weather!
