Sint Maarten

Sint Maarten is located on the southern half ofthe island of Saint Martin.

The blog site had its first visitor from Sint Maarten the other day which is pat of the Netherlands would you believe and comprises the southern third of the island of Saint Martin which belongs to France.

Apparently Christopher Columbus discovered the island in 1493, claimed it for Spain and gave it the name Isla de San Martin as it was 11 November, St Martin's Day. 

Who knows, maybe I'll get an invitation to visit which would be great because I've never been to the Caribbean although it would be a great place to vista one day.
