lillulu Posted October 8, 2007 Author #3 Share Posted October 8, 2007 There is a Publix in a shopping center behind the Embassy Suites on 17th street. Where would that be located in reference to the airport and cruise ship port? I have never been to Fort Lauderdale. Can I just ask the cab driver to take me to publix on 17th street behind Embassy Suites? Think he/she would know where that is? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks From the Publix website, I think this is the store but you may want to call and check.

lillulu Posted October 8, 2007 Author #6 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Thank you Sherri, I called and they are the closes. He said just tell the cab driver Harbor shops and they will know exactly where to go. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said just tell the cab driver Harbor shops and they will know exactly where to go. Thanks again. Glad I could help. The Publix and the entire shopping center are pretty new. Last time we sailed from Fort Lauderdale (2006) we walked over from the Embassy Suites and bought a few things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lillulu Posted October 8, 2007 Author #8 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Thanks Meg, We are coming from the airport. Sherri above posted the store she thought it was, so I called and it was. So now I know how to get the cabbie there. :-) You are right that second map, WOW it hurt my eyes to even look at it. LOL Thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
