Manda81....I know everyone else has already told you you will be fine...but I need to put my two cents in too....YOU WILL BE MORE THAN FINE!!! Especially with Rob and Lisa guiding you along once you reach.

Once you arrive, your tension will melt away very quickly, I know I was stressed to the maximum and by day two, I was so relaxed.....

I was just there a couple of weeks ago, and though it is slow, there are still people about. If Andre doesnt surface (I would give him an earful one way or the other!), perhaps you can get R and L and recommend a place with a bar or restaurant on site, that way you won't need to worry about taxi's (budget in mind), and being out and about by yourself in the evening. White Sands comes to mind (standard room: $57 US from their website) because I stayed next door when I was there and I did notice that there was quite a few people staying there (ask Lisa about their Dirty Bananas!!!) There are other spots too, again, Rob and Lisa would be more experienced with recommendations.

I travel solo too, so I understand your apprehension, just breathe.....nice and slow....breathe again....everting gonna be alright.
