Family Trip Number 12, July 19 -26

[SuperFan1]

Car service picked us up promptly at 6 AM and we were off to Logan. Into Terminal C and through security in about 25 minutes. Our flight took off about 20 minutes late, but we still arrived at Queen Beatrix 25 minutes earlier than scheduled. We were given incorrect baggage carousel location. By the time our bags began to appear, there were at least 2 other flights' bags on the carousel. Quite the cluster but we moved on. No bag check on the way out of the terminal. More4Less picked us up, took us to their office, and we were off to the Marriott Stellaris within 30 minutes. Our room was ready. The bellman brought our bags up to the room and we were off for our traditional first night dinner at Amore Mio. Two very good pizzas and salads, drinks for 3 of the 4 of us and we had a very good, quick and light meal for under $100. More to come as I catch up.....

We started off Day 2 with the buffet breakfast at La Vista, here at the Marriott. It's pricey but quite good. We like to stop in for breakfast 2 - 3 times per trip, to see our favorite wait staff and to support them. After breakfast, it was off to the beach for the day. We can't say enough about how friendly and welcoming the beach staff is, and how hard they work. They always remember us, which is a great feeling. The beach is somewhat crowded, but we've seen it more so. Dinner was at Daniel's and very good.

I should mention that the Wendy's rotary/roundabout is still not finished. Travel, on the main road, is allowed south bound, but not north bound, and you can not take that left to go down toward Linda's. To get to the Linda's area, a dirt road has been "built" through the median, just behind the Mall. During the day, the detour signs, through that neighborhood are clearly visible. I would imagine it would be dicey trying to see the unlit detour signs at night.....

Love breakfast as La Vista and the staff! Did you ever meet Pope Francis? He is so entertaining and an amazing waiter. He calls himself Pope Francis and everyone knows him as that! Next time look into having continental breakfast being included. It’s pretty extensive. We stay at the Marriott too. Love it.
