Hi everyone,
Thanks again to everyone who answered my question a while back about car rentals. We've decided to ditch that idea and hoof it around the island ourselves. After some research, I think I've put together an intinerary, but would like to make sure I'm not overlooking anything big like prices and times.
THANKS!
