Just off the Dawn today and we didn't see any 2 for 1 drink specials. Just the drink of the day and buy a bucket of five beers and get the sixth one free.

I did a helmet dive in St. Martin and as someone who is a poor swimmer (at best) and feels very uncomfortable IN the water (I'm fine ON the water - boating, kayaking/canoeing) it was a bit of a challenge for me. The most anxiety I felt was going down the ladder and getting my ears to pop. Once I got to the bottom I relaxed a little and was able to enjoy the experience. Did it make me want to run out and go scuba diving - no, but was it fun? yes definitely.

So I'm thinking about booking the Holiday Inn Express on SE 17th before we go on our cruise in March. The website says that it is "walking" distance from the cruise port. Is it REALLY walking distance? I'm picturing myself dragging my suitcase down a busy road in the hot Florida sun and wondering if it's worth it or should we just take a shuttle or taxi? My other question is, any idea how much a taxi to the Hard Rock Cafe might be? I didn't make it last time I was there and I really want to go (I collect pins.) Thanks :)

I had emailed Nathan for a cart rental in December and I did receive a response from him asking me to email or call in my credit card. I don't feel comfortable emailing my card info so I've been trying to call him with no success. Is he typically hard to reach? Is there a better time to reach him than others? I really want to rent the cart for the afternoon so we can go out to the lighthouse. :confused:
