Already planning next trip. Will be adjusting ticker a bit after this trip is over.

As for today....

Surf Club timeshare visit this morning. Took the 15,000 Marriott points and did not buy. It was too pricey for us.

Walked to Moomba to visit a friend then took taxi downtown for some light duty shopping.....no huge purcchases this year.

Hung around Ocean Suites pool from 2:00 to 5:00.

Went to Moby Dick's for dinner...pleasantly surprised.

CindyO will send you more in the AM.

Kids announced they were sick of looking at real estate. Looked at the Gold Coast, really really nice, and at Tierra del Sol. The trip to Surf put them over the top..enuf looking at real estate they said...we want to go to the beach...so, for now, we're done looking....though I did like the Gold Coast alot !!! cindyo

Private Island Beach today until 3:00, then poolside at the Ocean Suites.

MJs was great this evening, CindyO and I shared the Burgerloin and the Lamb Chops. Best meal of the vacation. Finished the evening with Iguana Teas at Iguana Joes. The food there isn't great, but the drinks are!

Posts getting short, as is vacation.

We love Gold Coast and had a positive experience purchasing with them. We were fortunate to have gotten in on the ground floor in Feb 2006 buying at pre-construction prices. This is a wonderful community and have made some very special friends since we moved in last Fall. You won't regret it if you decide to buy in! Good luck!

My husband had the burgerloin at MJs and gave up a bite so I could try it. It was very good!!
Enjoy the rest of your vacation, and thanks for taking us with you - it's been awesome!
