to get a closer look at the devastation on sanibal island as residents returned home for the first time. it was an emotional romoment fo so many people. reporter: absolutely, pamela. we took this boat ride with a couple of women who brought their home on sanibal island two years ago. it was their dream home, and they had to hire a driver, a captain, because it s the only way to get to the island now, because that causeway was destroyed by hurricane ian. so, it was about an hourlong boat ride and then about a mile walk from the beach to their home, and what we saw along the way was just horrible. and so sad. there were cars that were turn around over. there were buildings collapsed, resorts just destroyed. as we approached their home, they could see the screen around their pool had caved in. then, it took them about an hour to get inside because the hurricane shutters were down, and they re powered by electricity, and there is none. once inside, the upstairs level was dry. t
