: : Now the Floyd messages are less urgent, I am interested in finding out if anyone will be on Harbour Island for Y2K. I am part of a group that will be arriving 12-27 and leaving 1-3.
: : For some of us this is about the 10th visit and we love it every time. We will be staying, as always, with Ma Rubie.

: I'll be there too (at Runaway Hill). I've never been at New Year's...please tell me what to expect in the way of celebrations, parades, etc.
I don't know what will be different this year, but usually we do the following:
Dinner at Ma Ruby's
Party on Valentines dock until midnight.
(this may be hard if they have no dock)
Then everyone goes to Seagrapes.
Junkanoo at sunset the next day.
Junkanoo used to be at about 0500, but too many people slept throug it.
