It&#8217;s not raining that much, and from what we can see on the satellite, we&#8217;ll have some nice clear weather after this passes. Hopefully we&#8217;ll have a nice weather window to get out to Isla Mujeres as soon as tomorrow. That&#8217;s what we&#8217;re hoping for&#8230;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So last night, we went into town in search of a hurricane party. We managed to find a restaurant open, where we had a great late hurricane eve dinner, and then we went down to the wharf and then Duval St looking for a joint that would take us in. There was NOTHING OPEN. So much for the legendary hurricane parties. Guess that&#8217;s all they are, legends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During out venture into town, it started raining pretty hard, and since we left our rain gear on board, we had to improvise a bit. Hence the trash bags (click &#8220;more&#8221; to see the photos) &#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theandiamo.com\/images\/hurricane5.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theandiamo.com\/images\/hurricane4.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theandiamo.com\/images\/hurricane3.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">These are some shots of the storm conditions this morning, about 8AM\u2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theandiamo.com\/images\/hurricane1.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theandiamo.com\/images\/hurricane1a.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.theandiamo.com\/images\/hurricane2.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We may have a couple more before the day&#8217;s up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\">Comment from: papa [Visitor]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\">i am very happy that you both ,tony and margriet did survive the hurricane without any damage today i got my brandnew car it drives really smoothyso i willdrive to burgh-haamstedeto buy me a sorbet or eat a cup of fishsoup bye , byeand till we meet again papa<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.theandiamo.com\/log_b2\/index.php?blog=5&amp;p=47&amp;more=1&amp;c=1&amp;tb=1&amp;pb=1#c23\"><\/a> 2004-08-13 @ 11:19 <a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\">Comment from: Valerie [Visitor]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-right\">Mike, Tony, &amp; Mahi,<br \/><br \/>Great rain gear : )<br \/><br \/>I&#8217;m thrilled that all of you are safe and that there wasn&#8217;t any damage to The Andiamo.
