    Re: Safer walking the beach or the road at night?

    We bring a flashlight and walk from dinner at Idle Awhile/Chill Awhile and as far up as Nora's, then walk back to Nirvana. Last year there seemed to be fewer hustlers, but if we are approached, we don't stop walking, don't make eye contact and decline any sales pitch--politely say "No thank you mon." We feel less comfortable walking toward town because there are more folks that try to sell us stuff. Most restaurants will pick you up for free (plus tip). You pay for the return trip. Ask security to arrange the cab to take you back to your hotel. Make sure you are clear about the price of the ride before you get into any car or cab. I go to the West End (cliffs) at night, as often as I can, for dinner. We love Ivan's at Catcha Falling Star and Rockhouse (among other fabulous restaurants). For a long hall trip up to Ivan's we arrange for our airport transport driver to drive us both ways. After dinner we call him, or have the bartender call him. On the way back to the beach from dinner on the West End, I like to stop at Quality Trader's grocery store for groceries (shopping at night is great--quiet, local scene and we don't have to spend precious beach time shopping).

    Would you happen to have a phone number for Catcha Falling Star? Hoping they would pick up a party of 4 free to take us to dinner from the beach

    When you help someone expect nothing in return and you will receive your reward ten times over.
