First off we passed thru immigration in 10 minutes. While there was an air France plane parked beside us it looked like only our plane had people in immigration.

We only had carry on luggage so out we went rental car (Discount) was waiting. It was 235pm so I decided to go to select wines to pick up my wife's wine. She loved it thanks for recommending

Ready to relax and repeat daily and enjoy the view

Glad you went to Select Wine. Now you really need to go back for lunch at Sylvain's restaurant Champagne Bistro. Excellent food!

One of our favorites. We went twice on our last trip and enjoyed great food and service.

So last night's dinner was great but the drive over was bumper to bumper.
I had checked out the travel time on my app and it was saying 35 minutes
So I figured I'd leave at 5pm reservation was for 6pm
Give myself a little margin which is what we needed at 6pm we were still a good 10 minutes out. I gave them a call to let them know and they nice and appreciated the heads up. We arrived at 615 and to my surprise the place was already half full and for those of you who have had dinner there you know it's not that large of a place. We parked at the lot across the bridge of course by the time we left cars were circling looking for a spot. The parking lot that you can pay or if your restaurant has an agreement with them had plenty of room to park they open at 6pm. Tonight we will drive the gauntlet again for dinner at Bistrot Caraibes which will be our last dinner in Grand Case for this trip.

Do try Ocean 82 for lunch. Not nearly as much traffic and a fantastic view
