Before moving to other airports and travel experiences, we have to finish St. Maartin.
There is a very popular bar on the beach called "Sunset Beach Bar" - yes, the sunsets are lovely, but really the location is ideal for watching planes landing at the St. Maartin airport at sunset. The photo above may appear to have been photo-shopped, but it isn't (I did not take this photo and pulled it down from the web - it wasn't with a copyright, so I think I am OK. BTW - our photos were too dark to post here.) The beach and the runway are truly this close.
If you still think the photo is a mock up - please check out YouTube for videos of airplanes landing or just Google St. Maarten airport landings - many travelers have posted some great photos and videos.
The photo of the two Kir Royales (top photo) were taken at nearby (to the airplane landings) restaurant at sunset. What is and how to make Kir Royale? - one part creme de cassis and five parts champagne. I travel coach so I can drink wonderful concoctions like Kir Royale. Cheers!
