I am still working on my offficial report "Punta Emily " but in the meantime, I just wanted to post a quick one week later update!
A week ago, we were all looking around wondering where to start cleaning and putting the pieces back together.
Today, it's business as usual, for the most part. This week will undoubtedly be a little hectic trying to get caught up and get through all of the old and new e-mails, as well as trying to pay bills that would have bene paid last week. Bank lines will be outrageous as well as the various other places everyone will be trying to pay bills.
The entire island has had their power restored to my knowledge, except perhaps the very southern resorts. Power was restored at my office last night at about 7:00pm.
Cable came back on yesterday, so we can keep up with what's going on in the world.
There are definitely less tourists n the island than what would have been, but those tourists are appreciated more than ever now! Thanks to those of you who have decided to come down despite Emily!
I have no doubt in my mind that all of your thoughts and prayers worked miracles and convinced God to weaken Emily as she crossed over us...and to have some mercy on us! I also believe that faith moves mountains, which is why the people of Cozumel pulled together and got this island back up at running in only ONE week.
If you didn't understand why Cozumel is such a beautiful place before, I hope you all do now!
We ALL look forward to seeing you ALL as soon as possible!
