The Aftermath & Cleanup

Back at the Bunker on Tuesday AM, they had opened the metal shutters so that we could see out. Here are the shots Mike took from the front windows:

From the shots above there doesn't look like much damage. Then we went off property and saw the billboards and trees.

Back at the beach, we weren't allowed on the beach due to the massive amount of seaweed and debris washed ashore.

They had this much cleaned by the middle of the afternoon.

This was one of the beachside restaurants. This is the sea side.

As you can see below, the crew worked hard cleaning up. They worked all day with just one break in the hot, hot sun. They systematically rolled each piece of thatch, threw it down, piled it up and pile by pile, they carried them out. We were all so impressed with these guys.

Thanks again to all who helped keep us in the loop by letting us know what was going on and getting in touch with our friends and families. There was absolutely NO information given to us at any time. There weren't even any news channels at any of the resorts before or after the storm. How do these people keep informed?
