Seems the fax # on the form is not correct. I Googled the tour company and found a phone #, which I've been trying to call now for about 30 mins and it's busy.

I contact HO and they are looking into it.

I sent the tour company an email and have not received a response.

Anyone else?

I haven't even thought of doing any of that yet! I think I'll book an Everglades excursion.

That's the one we are doing! We're doing it on Tuesday. So do Tuesday if you want to try to go together. :)

Now that sounds nice. I haven't thought about what I'm going to do. DH and I only care about being away and relaxing.

I got an email back from these people with a different fax number and a different phone number. I just feel very uneasy about it all. Why wouldn't the form available from PC have the correct number? I have a call in to Meetings & Incentives to see what's up. I don't want to be faxing these people my credit card # if they're not legit.

We're going to lay low on Monday, probably head to South Beach via the free shuttle PC is providing, and then do the Everglades tour on Tuesday. FUN!

IiThink we are going to do an Everglades tour as well. Not much else,but I think DH would like to golf rather than lay at the pool with me- Any other DH want to join him?

Hey Sue - my DH might be interested in a round of golf - I'll let you know. Does he know where he wants to play or is he going to wing it when he gets there?

I have the Meetings & Incentives Dept checking into this tour company. They seem kind of fly by night (i.e. email address is @gmail)

HO is going to contact the travel company who is handling our arrangements--they are the ones that lined this company up--and they are supposed to call me back this afternoon. I'll keep y'all posted!

Yes, please do! I am getting reading to mail them a check for our tour. I don't have a fax machine.

Heard back from HO--it's all legit. This is the tour company the hotel uses all the time. They are having troubles with the original fax #, so if you want to fax the new # is 786-207-9661.

Linda, we have have not looked into golf courses yet- do you think that is something we should do ahead of time? DH did say that he was not hauling his clubs though, he will have to rent them there- he does not want to deal with bring them.

Is renting clubs really expensive? My husband might like to play, but if it is pricey forget it!! He really only likes to golf because it is an excuse to drink beer and talk with other guys.

I do not know how much to rent the clubs. How would we find that out beofre we leave for Miami ?

I am signing up today for the everglades tour for Tuesday, so I am looking for someone to golf with DH on Monday, so I can relax by the pool.
