In Response To: Sandals Honeymoon Goes Bad! (Biff)
I feel bad for those people but I couldn't agree more with Biff's statements about TSM. During my recent trip to BC I couldn't have been more prepared. I knew what to expect and ALL the info I got from the TSM board was on the money. It was more accurate than any other source. I did basic research in the archives and found up to date info on the board. I even resolved last minute details just before bringing my bags to the car for my trip to the airport!
So many people at home I spoke to were shocked that I:
1) Was going to a third world country on my own with no guide
2) Made all the arrangements without a travel agent and was not worried about leaving without a confirmed hotel reservation
3) Would go to a country that was devastated by Georges
4) Was so damn happy and content about my restful relaxing vacation even though I was only gone 4 days and 4 hours away in a place they knew little about.
Occasional bickering aside, I am beyond impressed with this site as a resource for info on enjoying a rousing, kick ass vacation.
