Terry,

There have been a few little wrinkles along the way (none of them SXM related, I might add....) but this has truly been a wonderful vacation and I can only say that all you, Laurel, Carol and others have told us about BSV is true and then some. It really is a wonderful place to unwind. My biggest fear is how will I ever get to sleep at home without the sounds of the waves.

Thanks to all of you who shared information, thoughts and opinions with regard to this (for us) extended visit. I took it all into consideration as we planned this trip and appreciated your expertise.

And for the record, my DH who is always the best of the best, has been even more wonderful with regard to the extended trip, particularly since generally speaking, he views anything more than ten days to be too long. We've already signed up for two weeks in November and he's leaning towards an okay on the three weeks next Spring, God willing. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />

And Terry, I hope your next trip is all you want and deserve it to be with no abbreviations for ANY REASON at all.

Respectfully,

pat
