I never brought long pants to SXM, then in 2013 we went to Italy, and enjoyed the Passagiada(sp?)"evening stroll" and their habit of "dressing" for dinner. This time in SXM, I am bringing 2 pair of long pants and button down shirts for our "special" dinners next week. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/dine.gif" alt="" /> Plus, I would never wear a tanktop, and/or flip flops, or a hat to a sit down restaurant, but that's just me. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> regards, Phil
