This is the exact trip we are doing in 24 days - we are flying on Southwest, Austin to Ft. Lauderdale the day before, staying at a hotel on the 17th Street Causeway that offers free shuttles back & forth between airport & hotel - we arrive early enough to enjoy a nice dinner in Ft. Lauderdale the night before the Jet Blue flight to St. Martin - doing the same thing on the way home.


Gotta Caribbean soul I can barely control and some Texas hidden here in my heart...(J.B.)
