We were stationed in Rota. Lived just outside the base (the other end) in Puerto de Santa Maria when we first moved there & then on base.

You have better memories than me! We got there towards the end of a 7-year drought. There was no green! My son was an infant when we moved there, so we were a little base-bound. I loved the Moorish influence - the tiled courtyards.

St. Maartin was gorgeous! Just the way I imagined island life to be! Would love to visit again! I remember when it rained, because I visited in the "winter time", everyone ran to take cover under the patio and drinks were free! Rain only lasted a good 5-10 minutes, and then the sun was back! I also remember the native were soooo friendly! Provided personal tours and bought our whole group drinks and meals. We ended up in some isolated club, away from all of the tourists. Had a blast!
