You are right about driving in the dark on your first visit...The landings aren't that bad ( I guess not for me being a pilot)..just something you are not used to...just pretend you are trying to land on the hill, cause you are in ground effect the whole way down....and those pilots are REAL good, a...

Their idea of guardrails are bushes......if you don't like what you see in your headlights, turn them off!! Really, the scooters will be right on your bumper, and they will pass where you and I wouldn't and cut right in front of you...let them and don't worry about them....also nobody honks at each ...

Hi...no if KevinS gave you directions you are fine.....just be careful...the road is dark on the way to Columbier, there is NO shoulder and it is a 300' drop at that first sharp left up the hill...and the locals drive CRAZY...you are going to have TOO MUCH FUN !! What day do you get in?

Summerlover...if you won't be heading to P'tit till evening, are you on Island somewhere else before that? If not I would have someone meet me and show me they way the first time...

Y'all are welcome!!! Hope to share a cool one with a few of you......Ron

...The blonde part I will surely notice !!!!!! Glad you got the map, hope it helps, and don't worry about finding your way around....all you need to know is the few main roads and if you get lost you will eventually end up back where you started. I figured out that if you study the shape of the diff...

Carol..in June, Tom Beach on St. Jean beach-just off the end of the runway-was renting their lounges for 20EU a day including lunch and one drink....great place to spend a beach day....bar in the sand...that's where you will find me....Casurina does not ring a bell...

Carol..sent it to your house.....you are further away....Ron

1.46 this morning...headed in the right direction.......

Carol....Bahston is correct on the withdrawal limits....all the shops and restaurants will give you your bill in euros and dollars..so that's why I load up on 100 dollar bills from home and don't have to worry about the fees....but you will burn through that stack pretty quick...so take TWO stacks !...

Carol..yes I get charged an exchange fee at the shops, that's why I usally pay in cash....I order euos online (travelex) and avoid this...

...And the bright people at Verizon will BS their through your questions...it took me three trips to straighten out all the mis-information Sprint told me...you are much better off asking a Verizon user what works and what doesn't...ask someone on SBHonline forum and they will give you a straight an...

..I never had a problem..MOST stores will accept Amex, some only take visa/Mc.....I use Bank Of America and they are partnered with Pariabes which has ATM'S in Gustavia and they waive the fees for me..sometimes I get charged the fees, but I have always got them reversed when I get home.....the fees ...

OUCH...the exchange rate this AM was 1.48....Glad I have a buch of Euros left over from June at 1.28.....Another bit of information: Match supermarket across from the airport gladly takes us dollars and gives euros back in change at a fair rate..usually 1.35....we buy some small items and pay with a...

Scarlet..the SBHonline get together is at Andy's Hideaway, as you go down past the airport, Past Eden Rock, the road will split, Hideaway is dead ahead between the split, again, finding parking will involve walking.......Please try to show up and introduce yourself, you will be running into all thes...

..Will end being the MOST expensive free concert you ever attended...but you will part of history on SBH !!

Scarlet..it is about 5 minutes by car from the quay....from the airport..about 2 minutes..along the beach...remember it really is a small Island.....the crowd from the "other side" are all Buffett fans too, and some of them know Jimmy quite well from all the time spent on SBH....there are ...

Regarding parking.....on the SBHonline forums they are discussing parking along the high road on the way out and walking into town..seems they do that for carnival and no one has a problem..They just posted a great arial shot of Gustavia and the airport on the forum under "this is serious"...
