However, a 20-30 min ride doesnīt seem that bad...

I would like to see the beaches, but shopping is certainly no motivation for me to take this trip.

Would August tickets still be available. And where would I go?

I probably won`t be taking studio tours. Itīs too time consuming for such a short stay...

sounds very good. What kind of food do you get there?

So, I think Iīll give the 'Checkers' a chance...
Thanks again, again!
