I hear you man. Talk about exceedingly high expectations! You have to ask yourself: am I paying 5 star prices?
Any advice for GP first timers. We have been to TTR twice, but really missed walking on the beach. Are there many vendors on the beach in front of GP?? After 10+ trips to Jamaica, we have had enough of the vendors, hustlers, hagglers, etc.
vendors There are a few but few and far between. Mostly selling cigars and jewlery. Should not be a big problem.
Were booked to go to GP tonite (Oct. 11), however we were informed yesterday that our Mini Schnauzer "Precious" has Acute Kidney failure. Our Vet encouraged us to go ahead with our trip, but one look at her with the IV tube running into her leg and we decided GP would have to wait !!
She is not but 4 years old. Kidney Failure is kinda rare in Dogs that young. Won't know until Monday at the earliest !!! Why go on vacation if you're going to worry the whole time. Didn't realize that Expedia outsourced their insurance to a third party. Expedia billed it as cancell for "any reason", however the claim form I was emailed is asking for Documents from Doctors, etc. If its for "any reason", why do you have to provided anything?? Delta did give us credit for our cancelled flights, however there is a $200 rebooking fee !!! Golden Parnassus did give us a refund for 5 nites. I suppose we can file a claim for the $400 Delta rebooking fee and the 1 hotel nite. Trying to set up something for Thanksgiving week. Cancun is still petty warm at that time. Not enough time before Christmas and the $$$ go thru the roof after Dec 25 !!!
