Thanks once again to all our readers who participated in our last edition of Weekend Fun.

Many of you got it right. The photo was taken behind Sukie’s in New Town looking across the bay towards the Citronier/ Castle Comfort area.

Hope you will join us again for another edition of Weekend Fun.

    Correction DNO.

    Wallhouse is not in this picture.

    If wider panoramic shot was shown, then MAYBE to the right Wallhouse could be seen.

    But no, Wallhouse is not in this photo.

    :lol: I guess some people want to be funny or they need to take a tour of the island. Please travel about DA a bit, it is not that big. The ridiculous places people are saying is pretty disturbing to me. This is clearly Castle Comfort Wall House Loubiere area. Take a trip on the boat to Martinique. The view is georgeous from the port. This tells you that it is an upscale area of D/A. The type of blue or green should not be a problem. Come on people look at the water craft on the sea.

      I hear you on this but come on not every one will know there is Newtown. I know it because I grew up walking the streets and seeing it from around by Sukie before this place was even developed. If someone from DoeDan you would not expect them to know this is Newtown if they have never visited. Lts be real about this

      Come on. Let’s not be too biased. Although this may be a view of Newtown, nevertheless, the color that is being depicted has me somewhat baffled. No need for sly or rude comments, just making an observation.
