We ate at a different place every night trying all types of food. We vendors were down a lot but the people there were just great- just not enough came and really missed out on a good show. Oops - my complaint is still the u turns - LOL Thanks Sally. We did have a lot of compliments on the site overall. If the Plaza had been open it would have resolved many of the hotel issues. One thing people cannot complain about is the food down here. We have a great variety of restaurants who pride themselves in fine cuisine. For those of you that did not try Frankies or Floyds you missed a couple of the best. As to the vendors, I heard they were down some so for those of you that were home, maybe you could help support them. Bo has some really cute national shirts left with a puppy and cowboy boots, and Sally, well if she doesn't have it she'll darn sure make it. Her tops and shirts with crystals this year were stunning. She has capitalized on "bling". Many were thrilled at the great prices Steve Whitside has on stainless steel fur savers, and a lot of people enjoyed the masseuse on site. Too bad for you all that missed these things. Guess I should have warned everyone about the U turns...frankly when you get used to them they save a lot of time. I did a lot of spinning when I first moved down here, but now being a have little patience at time, I like that I don't have to bother with stop lights....can just scoot under and around and take off again.
