Jerseyboy ... Continental NO LONGER HAS DIRECT FLIGHTS TO STT! :cry: We had reservations to STT out of Newark with them for quite a while, I'd just arranged for the limo company for our pickups - and an hour later, Continental called to tell me that they no longer offered direct flights and now we ...

We LOVE the Canon PowerShots - we have an A95, A610 and a S2-IS. Love their lenses, their features - and the fact that they all utilize 4 double A batteries - that seem to last FOREVER!

Here's a link to our online photos

We do watch a little tv at night before going to bed. News - or whatever - sometimes a movie - while we lay in bed and review photos taken during the day on the camera.

For me it's a fun novelty since we don't have (or want) a tv in our bedroom at home :wink:

Actually, after further research, I think a Speedo swim cap may be better for a snorkler (for sun protection) than the Buff thing as it is more streamlined & less to deal with: you simply put it on your head- rather than dealing with ties, twisting, etc. (did you see their video)... plus, the Bu...

What a great idea for someone snorkeling - especially a man with thinning hair!!!!!!

Anyone know if they stay-put while snorkeling?

Well, not less than 15 minutes after posting : Actually, I think it's rather pretty- not in the ahhhhh-blue-green-sea way St. John is pretty, but the snow here certainly makes for a cozy-drink-cocoa-eat-popcorn type of day - which I also love and find charming - I LOST POWER IN MY HOME FOR THE NEXT ...

As a true Jersey-Shore-Girl who has always lived 2-5 minutes from the beach, I am a minimalist when it comes to beaching it: When we (me, husband, 19 year old son - and anyone else that may tag along) trek to the beach, each one of us carries their own chair (small - simple - LIGHTWEIGHT ALUMINUM ch...

I am so very sorry for your loss Mary. I have only one child - a 19 year old son - and I can only imagine the shock and pain you and your family must be experiencing.

I am so sorry.

Betty - you shouldn't feel bad writing a bad review - it was honest!

All restaurants can have off days - but I think it is important that patrons let management know if there are problems or issues- so, they will be able to address them - and hopefully, correct them.

Betty - sorry you did not enjoy Zozo's. Did you send anything back? If something is not seasoned the way I like it, I do not send it back - I just chalk it up to everyone having a different perspective on what tastes good - BUT, when food is "hard as a brick" or "like rubber" - i...
