I normally don’t do trip reports, but thought I’d give it a try! We arrived on the Charlotte flight, landing at about 1:10 (a little early) and were out of the airport by 2 pm with carryon only. The airport staff would not let us skip the “cattle shoot”, stating that the immigration hall was busy. Not a big deal. I think we waited outside for 20 minutes or so, then just breezed right through.
Got a taxi to Dany’s to meet up with Wendy K and grab our car. Staying the first 3 nights at an Airbnb in Jordan Village before we move to RI on Saturday. We’re already planning on buying a couple of fans at Ace if need be. What can you do 🤷🏻♀️.
Dinner was at Spaghetti House in Jordan Village. Early to bed!
Currently waiting on the Cupecoy beach report to see if today will be a beach day or a pool day!
Edited to add: I told TSA in CLT that I had unused syringes in my bag. The agent couldn’t have cared less!

Jeanne--glad you arrived OK. Better to follow the rules, than not, and get pulled aside and grilled for it.
As far as RI, there is no way I would stay anywhere without a/c. I would go by there and check to see if they will accommodate you somewhere else. It can't hurt. If necessary, I would pay to stay somewhere else.

Sorry, no a/c is a total no-go for me, personally. Sweating to death at night while trying to sleep? Not my idea of a relaxing vacation. ..Which is not to say that I blame RI for this. The blame can be squarely put at the door of GEBE.. But they are not going to ruin my vacation if I can help it.
