Default Visiting this weekend


Hi guys (and girls ;o),

I'll be arriving in Miami on Thursday evening, drive up to Boca Raton and have to be back in Miami on Sunday afternoon.

Anything going on this weekend, especially on saturday?

Anyone wants to meet up for some drinks?

Also, a friend of mine is looking for a place to store his car in the Boca Raton area.

Maybe someone has and idea?!

Also anyone got a deal on a nice affordable Hotel Room?

Many thanks in advance

Hi Shawn,

I'll have to do in Boca Raton but have a car, so anywhere between Miami and Boca Raton where the price versus what you get is good.

Would say in the 140 USD range.

So far people are recomending FT Lauderdale

Best would be close to bars and restaurants area so I dont have to drive or take a taxi too far back to the hotel after going out.

Check the marriot on Atlantic Ave and US1, Delray Beach ... nice spot and you can walk to all the bars on Atlantic Ave.

Marriot Delray

How long does your friend need to store a car for?

forget that ... I checked the rates but they are in the $260 range

Another good hotel in Boca is the Hilton on Hillsboro Blvd and I-95, then there is the Holiday Inn on Glades Rd and Turnpike, you are going to have to drive to bars from these.

well i know there's a la quinta that is very cheap right off of I-95 and coconut creek, but that's probably a good 10 minute cab ride or so to downtown ft lauderdale. I will try to call a friend of mine today that works in a hotel on south beach who usually has great prices, but that may be too far south for you.

Turns out the yacht trip is canceled due to pending weather and seas so ill definitely be out and about tomorrow night and saturday
