SD memory cards have been around for quite some time. In fact, what started out as a joint venture between SanDisk and Toshiba in 1999 has ballooned into the industry standard for storing digital media on cameras and camcorders and even that fancy new Raspberry Pi you just purchased.
Since the launch of the SD card it has undergone a number of changes to keep up with modern devices giving us two classes of SD cards with five sub-classes to choose from, those being Speed Class 2,4,6,10 and UHS Speed Class I. Each of these classes are designated by the sustained write performance of the drive i.e. a class 4 drive has a minimum 4MB/s sustained write speed, class 6 a 6MB/s sustained write speed and so on. Many SD cards will employ two speed classes one for the SD Speed Class and the other for the UHS Speed Class, because the two are not compatible.
The SDXC card we will be looking over today, the EP Series, comes from Patriot Memory and carries a UHS Speed Class I and SD Speed Class of 10 with marketing specifications of 50MB/s read and 35MB/s write. This memory card comes in two flavours, those being 64GB and 128GB with our sample being the 64GB version. As with many of Patriot's products, this SDXC card is warrantied for five years.
The EP Series 64GB SDXC card comes in a plastic case to keep your drive safe during travel or for safe keeping.
Looking over the card, Patriot chose to dress it up a bit with custom graphics emphasizing the EP. Along the bottom the speed class is listed along with its capacity of 64GB.
The back of the card lists the model number along with its place of manufacture.
Pulling the card apart we find that Patriot chose to secure the NAND and controller for this SDXC card with another layer of plastic. This gives the card waterproof capabilities shielding the internals from all weather conditions.
To test Secure Digital cards we utilize the same benchmarks we use for flash drives. These include CrystalDiskMark, ATTO and DiskBench. The card reader utilized in these test is the Vantec UGT-CR935.
Looking over our ATTO results we see the Patriot EP exceeded marketing specifications by a slim margin with 39MB/s write and 56MB/s read.
CDM produced similar numbers as well with the EP series giving us 54MB/s read and ~39MB/s write. 512K results were also impressive during the read test with them falling off slightly during write operations.
Transferring our 10MP RAW file shot with our Panasonic Lumix took only 1.3 seconds at a rate of 11.2MB/s. For a comparison I ran this exact test on a Class 4 card and came up with 1.8 seconds at 8MB/s.
The video used in this test was shot with a Panasonic x900 Camcorder at 1080p 60FPS. Transferring this video to our SDXC card took 38 seconds at a rate of 36MB/s. If we compare this to our class 4 card that was capable of 16MB/s and took nearly two minutes to transfer the same video, it becomes clear the UHS Class I Patriot EP excels in this area.
When it comes to aesthetics the Patriot Memory EP Series does have a bit of added flare with the custom design and pronounced EP logo on the front of the card.
As far as performance is concerned Patriot has done a great job with this 64GB SDXC giving it UHS Class I specifications and living up to the standard as well. In our testing we were able to achieve numbers slightly above marketing specs in both ATTO and CDM with both tests seeing 56MB/s read and 38MB/s write.
After running through DiskBench and comparing this EP model to our previous Class 4 card, we don't see too much improvement transferring our 10MP RAW file. However transferring our 1080p video was nearly twice as fast.
As of this writing pricing for the Patriot EP Series SDXC card will dock you $49.99 for the 64GB and $139.99 for the larger 128GB setup.
Patriot Memory EP Series 64GB SDXC UHS-I Memory Card Review
Need performance for TrueHD recording? Patriot's EP Series 64GB SDXC UHS-I memory card might be for you.

Silverback Enterprise Group, which acquires and builds industry-leading software businesses, today announced the acquisition of EPM Live, the leading provider of cloud-based project portfolio and work management software built on the Microsoft® SharePoint platform. EPM Live will become part of Silverback's PowerSteering Software business.
Adding EPM Live's more than 270 active enterprise clients and over 100,000 users strengthens PowerSteering's position as the leading vendor of cloud project and portfolio management (PPM) software. The combined organization will have over 800 active enterprise clients and more than a quarter of a million users in 50 countries worldwide, making it the largest pure-play cloud provider in the multi-billion dollar PPM software industry.
"The PPM market is growing faster than the enterprise software industry as a whole, and cloud is the fastest growing segment of that market," said Jack McDonald, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Silverback Enterprise Group and PowerSteering Software. "The acquisition of EPM Live increases the scale and resources of the PowerSteering business so we can capitalize on this tremendous growth opportunity. At the same time, it gives our clients access to a broader range of PPM products."
"EPM Live is a strong complementary fit with PowerSteering's existing products," said Ludwig Melik, President of PowerSteering Software. "With the increasing popularity and adoption of SharePoint as an internal collaboration tool, more and more organizations are looking to leverage that investment and extend it to PPM on the SharePoint platform. EPM Live is the clear leader in meeting this growing need, and will continue to be so as part of PowerSteering."
PowerSteering will continue to invest in the development and support of the EPM Live product lines, and all existing Service Level Agreements and support arrangements will remain unchanged.
The EPM Live staff and CEO Joe Larscheid will join the PowerSteering team, and Mr. Larscheid will continue to oversee the EPM Live product line. "It was important to us to team up with a company that shared our focus as a 'best of breed' cloud PPM provider, our vision to advance work management in the market, and most critically, our commitment to investing in EPM Live's products and customers," said Mr. Larscheid. "Joining PowerSteering Software is a winning outcome for our clients and employees alike."
Terms of the transaction were not disclosed. EPM Live is Silverback's fourth acquisition in the past 15 months. Silverback acquired Visionael in September 2011 and Tenrox and PowerSteering Software in February 2012.
Project and portfolio management (PPM) software, which helps organizations improve business performance and accelerate results, is a multi-billion dollar global market, and the cloud-based segment of PPM is forecast to grow at a 40% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) for the next five years. By using PPM software, managers are able to gain enhanced visibility into a corporation's global portfolio of all corporate initiatives and projects, align the portfolio with the organization's strategic objectives, maximize benefits across the portfolio, balance supply (human resources, time or money) with demand (investments, programs, projects and unplanned work), increase the productivity of the project workforce and proactively address project emergencies and changes to the existing and planned project pipeline triggered by shifts in business direction.

Personal Quote: if I open my heart to you...will you be careful with it?
Rest DayOh I had a day full in a listarchaicglint
A wish list of things to do
but when you looked at me
I think within, I knew, I knew
I would be sleeping the day in
with you at my side and just laugh
in exchanging stories and inside jokes
oh and I would try my best not to be so rough
Because the pace is too fast and we need to find shelter
against the wind, the tide and this crazy weather
of the time, of the pressure and of our wants
So maybe you're right to take day off for once
And it wouldn't be a waste I know and you knew
cause we'd just follow our heart on queue
and it would take us to slumber and peace
and some alone time, something that we've missed
And as moons shows up with the stars
I'd make a toast to our scars
they've healed up and we're ready to fight
but first let's cuddle up tonight

'Once Upon a Time': Rose McGowan to Play Young Cora
She will guest star in one episode of the ABC fairy tale drama.
Once Upon a Time is heading even further back in time.
In an upcoming season-two origin episode, ABC's fairy-tale drama has booked Charmed alum Rose McGowan to portray a younger version of Regina's evil mother, Cora (Barbara Hershey), The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed.
The origin episode, airing next year, will center on Cora.
PHOTOS: ABC's 2012-13 Season: 'Nashville,' '666 Park Ave' and 'Malibu Country'
Once Upon a Time has jumped back in time during the course of two seasons, with flashbacks to its fairy-tale world to explain the backstories of the Storybrooke characters.
Repped by APA and Untitled Entertainment, McGowan has appeared in Nip/Tuck and 2011's Conan the Barbarian.
Earlier this month, it was announced that Once Upon a Time would be one of the TV shows taking part in next year's PaleyFest.

Alligator Point House Rental Photos and Description
House, 2 Bedrooms + Den, 1 Bath, (Sleeps 6)
Spectacular sunrises can be viewed from the screened or open deck each morning while you enjoy coffee. Actually there are great views from just about every window and location on site. Our house is very private and joins a twenty acre nature preserve abundant with wildlife.
The Bay is thirty feet in front of our house and great for watersports, fishing, and boating. We have a small sand beach there, great for children or to tie up your boat if you bring one (fishing is great here too). The Gulf main beach is a block away with beautiful white sand beaches, great for surf fishing or just relaxing and taking in the sun and view.
Our kitchen is fully equipped with a table for four and a bar for two. There is a master bedroom with queen bed and a loft bedroom with two double beds. Down below on the lower covered patio you will find a outdoor sink, outdoor shower picnic tables and a comfortable swing where you can continue to view the beautiful Bay.
We have added a paddle boat that seats 5 people for our guest use. Have fun exploring the bay and waterways near our home, launch it from our back yard. Great fun for kids and adults.

About Curtis Ward
We bought this home in 1995 for our personal use, not as a money making investment. However with the high cost of owning a Florida coastal property we have decided to rent some to help off set the costs of owning the home. We still use the property every chance we get.
Curtis Ward purchased this house in 1995
Why Curtis Ward chose Alligator Point
We are located in a very quiet, safe and low traffic neighborhood. We are situated next to a 25 acre nature preserve and in a private location. We usually fish, swim, boat, sunbathe and just hang out at our home on our little private beach as opposed to walking down to the public beach.

Pentax Optio T30 review
Are touchscreens just a gimmick?
By tech.co.uk staff from Digital Camera
TechRadar's verdict
"The T30 is certainly fun to use and could be popular with those who find small switches and dials difficult to operate. Image quality is average and there's little else that leaps out from this compact. Try one out to see if you like the concept. Fun, but a bit overpriced."
-
Touchscreen is fun and easy to use

-
Short on features

Flimsy build

Jerky zoom

Pricey

November 27, 2014
NEW YORK (AP) - Longtime conservative New York radio host Bob Grant has died at age 84.
His death Tuesday in Hillsborough, N.J., after a short illness was confirmed by New York radio station WABC.
Grant once derided Martin Luther King Jr. as "that slimeball." He was fired from WABC in 1996 for acid-tongued remarks he made following the plane crash death of the first black U.S. commerce secretary, Ron Brown. He later returned to WABC.
Grant was known for his combative style and was considered a forerunner to conservative broadcasters such as Sean Hannity.
Grant was born Robert Ciro Gigante in Chicago in 1929. He began his broadcasting career in the late 1940s at WBBM in Chicago. He moved on to radio and TV jobs in Los Angeles and New York and was named afternoon drive time host at WABC in 1984.

Simulating a search and rescue mission for a baby in a smoke-filled room, while wearing a face mask, a helmet and a bulky fire suit.Climbing a ladder several stories high.Learning how to perform CPR.
If getting up at 6:30 a.m. during the summer weren't grueling enough already, those are just a handful of things 28 Valley teens are experiencing this week at the Scottsdale Public Safety Teen Academy.
var config = new Array();
config["videoId"] =
1655754120; // CHANGE THIS the default video loaded into the player

config["width"] = 300;
config["height"] = 275;
/* do not edit these config items */
config["playerId"] = 1336690405;
createExperience(config, 8);
But gauging by the attitudes of those participating, most of them agreed: "It's pretty cool."
The academy, hosted by the Scottsdale police and fire departments at Scottsdale Stadium and the Hontz Training Facility in Tempe through Friday, is an opportunity for teens to learn public safety techniques.
"I like this," said Ronnie Edwin, 17, of Scottsdale, as he anchored a line of three participants who were spraying a fire hose at orange cones atop blue plastic barrels. "We're learning how to work as a team."
At 6 feet 4 inches and 265 pounds, Edwin plays center and on the defensive line for the Scottsdale Saguaro High School football team, but said he would like to be a firefighter or police officer someday. He said his father, Ron, was a former Scottsdale police officer.
Rylan Wasson, 15, of Fountain Hills, climbed down the ladder on one of the Scottsdale firetrucks after being inside the bucket at about three stories high.
"It was really cool," she said. "I really liked it. This is a good idea to do."
On Thursday, the teens will learn some police skills at the training facility. They will also have interaction with fully geared SWAT team members, examine a mock homicide scene and learn crime scene investigation techniques.
Last year's teen academy had been canceled due to lack of interest, but this year, there was a waiting list of 14, said Lori Schmidt, public education officer for the Scottsdale Fire Department.
In the past, the academy was held in more of a classroom setting, and this year, it is more hands-on and teamwork, she said.
"These recruits can be our future police officers and firefighters," Schmidt said. "Our goal is to give the teams exposure to public safety. We figured we were lucky to get this many teens out of bed at 6:30 in the morning, so let's give them something fun to do. They're going to walk away with some valuable skills."

I close my office door and lean back in my chair. Yesterday, it was a gift subscription to The Advocate. A few moments ago, Alan handed me "The L Word" DVD. Is there something taped to my head that says, "Mock me"?
Lori laughs at the thought Tracy might be attracted to me. First of all, why is that so unbelievable? Then there was the Staff Meeting. Later, Alan and Denny led a chorus of "Lesbian!" Catherine Piper got in a dig. Twice, Tara informed me I was making a fool of myself. Even Tracy took every opportunity to ask, incredulously, 'You actually think that I'm attracted to you?' She used my suspicion in an effort to not be found out and throw me off track, directing it toward this supposed "attraction" toward her.
Its not about ego or if I like her. Its about deceit and truth. I just believe you should be straight with people. I'm a good lawyer because I've got a nose for the truth. I knew I was being deceived, I just wasn't sure how.
My colleagues sucker me with this buddy talk, then they punish me with it. Damn it. I won't be sued by my client for sexual harassment, I wasn't infatuated with her. I wasn't falling in love with this woman. I wasn't hitting on her. Please. I have Victoria. Call me a cynic. I just don't like surprises in court.
But I took it. And, in the end, only three people will ever know the truth: Tracy Green, Stephanie Rogers and myself. I'd rather bear their impression that I'm a fool, which I shrug off, than to embarrass my client. It's a character thing.

Unfortunately this is all too true. Its the same reason I can't just openly discuss such a thing with my neighbors without them turning me into the police. The people will not fight in the end and they will perish or be enslaved.

I guess he has to say these things, just as the phony pleas for non-violence went out from BHO, EH, Browns father….its all BS though. I think Beck means it, but its a plea falling on immoral ears for the most part.

Nothing on CNN pointed out the criminal nature of last nights events, but instead they focused on the police in their failure to respond in saving businesses that those owners believed that they would protect. I knew this was going to be the narrative today and it was spot on. The Left is so predictable. Too hard of a response in August, toned it down, last night, no real response.

The modern media moguls and progandists who sit nightly in front of their cameras have besmirched the good American people who of which happen to be mostly White for the most part.
I realize there are many who have come here from long ago and even recently from all walks of life and wish to have the American dream for themselves and their prodigy. I'm fine with that. American is not a race, its a set of ideals. If your not embracing those original ideals then you are neither American nor welcome in this country.
With that said, the race baiters, politicians sometimes one in the same are actually winning the battle for some of the hearts and minds in this country who are primed by the educational system to believe they are eternally oppressed victims of the White man and his sons/daughters, this in turn will lead them to oppress us through laws and governmental takeover. We voted, our voices were heard, but are now being drowned out by this racist mess still being stoked by the president.
I feel they know that their time is limited if of course they leave office when expected, I don't believe they will, I believe they are using this issue to further divide the American people and to eventually implement martial law maybe in select areas, maybe nationally, depends on how this thing grows. Stay tuned.

I was not sure what the mechanism would be for Obama to seize total control, but I do believe that from this one incident, with several more to follow in the weeks and months ahead as Blacks feel more emboldened to just do as they please (above the law mentality) that we can expect a spiraling out of control USA internally speaking. The Left want this, they need this to dominate as a minority the rest of the majority and they will do so under the guise that White oppression has gone to far, the laws, constitution all need to be amended to suit only people of color. This is it folks, they tried class warfare through OWS and that fell on its face because most people even the poor have everything they need…..its going to be all about the oppression of young black males and watch how a unity network for them springs up….like a gang they will grow the new brownshirts. Is this the internal security force BHO wanted in 08? We'll see.

I raised my kid better, so it would not have ever been my kid so your straw man logic is not working here. Yes, answers were demanded and answers have been given, time to move on, not burn it down even more.

I can guarantee you that if we lived in an alternate universe and said protestors were White, then yes, they would have been put down like dogs for burning down businesses and such and one step further, if Whites were attacking blacks on site, then they also would be terminated and not the other way around which is so often the case. So in reality, Blacks have more rights than your average joe. They do as they please and Mike Brown was acting as such when he crossed the line.
[-1] November 25, 2014 at 3:26pm
It seems that two things cause a person to lash out and burn down their own black run businesses. 1st of which is the base mentality that "If I ain't gettin out of here, neither are you sucka". The 2nd being a more sinister level in which the businesses are attacked as a way to force the owners themselves into discussion for change that THE RIOTERS want. Thats plain terrorism.

For a bunch of people who think they are the best at solving our problems and the worlds, they sure prove anything but.
Hagel, love em or hate and I don't care which, is still closer to being more of a patriot than what they'll replace him with no doubt….just watch. Maybe Chuck saw the writing on the wall and would not go along with their domestic plans…this is not about Isis, Syria, thats what they want you to think. Besides, at the least it may be just a distraction but from what? No one on the right is calling for Hagel to step down, so why has this admin made this an issue? Infighting maybe, maybe Hagel grew a backbone?

Next year will likely see the release of a few horror remakes, including The Evil Dead and Suspiria, but today we've got the official first look of one that will definitely be hitting theaters. Boy's Don't Cry director Kimberly Peirce is following up Stop-Loss with a re-do of Brian De Palma's 1976 classic Carrie and now the first images have arrived thanks to Entertainment Weekly (via Dread Central).
Below one can see Kick-Ass and Hugo star Chloe Moretz covered in head to toe with pig's blood, just as Sissy Spacek was in the first film. Then there is Julianne Moore as her crazy mother, portrayed by Piper Laurie in the original. EW also provides side by side comparisons. I'm slightly interested to see what Peirce comes up with, but considering how well De Palma's version holds up I'm still hesitant. Check out the stills below for the film also starring Judy Greer.
Update: See official pictures below via EW.
The quiet suburb of Chamberlain, Maine, is home to the deeply religious and conservative Margaret White (Moore) and her daughter, Carrie (Moretz). Carrie is a sweet but meek outcast whom Margaret has sheltered from society. Gym teacher Miss Desjardin (Greer) tries in vain to protect Carrie from local mean girls led by the popular and haughty Chris Hargenson (Portia Doubleday, Youth in Revolt), but only Chris' best friend, Sue Snell (Gabriella Wilde, The Three Musketeers), regrets their actions. In an effort to make amends, Sue asks her boyfriend, high school heartthrob Tommy Ross (newcomer Ansel Elgort), to take Carrie to prom. Pushed to the limit by her peers at the dance, Carrie unleashes telekinetic havoc. Brian De Palma's 1976 film version of CARRIE earned Oscar nominations for stars Sissy Spacek and Piper Laurie.
Carrie hits theaters on March 15th, 2013.

Jan. 2 (Bloomberg) -- Turk Hava Yollari AO, or Turkish Airlines, rose after Turkey's competition board ruled alleged violations of competition rules were groundless.
The shares climbed 2.8 percent to 2.18 liras at 10:35 a.m. in Istanbul trading, rising for the first day in five.
The competition board investigated if the airline violated competition rules through actions that hurt low-cost carrier Pegasus Airlines, the board said in a statement on its website.

Digital Storytelling: Helping Students Find Their Voice
While accepting his 2008 Academy Award for best director, Joel Coen took a minute to reminisce about his earliest days as a filmmaker, and it wasn't hard to picture him back in the late 1960s, lugging around a home-movie camera. Nor was it difficult to imagine his kid brother, Ethan, dressed up in a suit and carrying a briefcase in their early collaborations. As the elder Coen admitted, "Honestly, what we do now doesn't feel that much different from what we were doing then."
In some respects, today's aspiring filmmakers have it easier. Digital cameras and more accessible editing software have lowered some of the technical barriers to making movies. And for better or worse, getting a film into circulation has become as easy as uploading a file to YouTube or another video-sharing site.
But making a digital story worth watching still isn't easy. Doing it well takes not only practice and skill but sometimes also courage, BBC filmmaker and digital-storytelling proponent Daniel Meadows suggests on his Web site, Photobus.
Teachers who bring digital storytelling into the classroom are discovering what makes this vehicle for expression worth the effort. They watch students gain proficiency in writing and research, visual literacy, critical thinking, and collaboration. They see students take part in a range of learning styles. Of course, they also see students make authentic use of technology. Sometimes, they even hear students discover the power of their own voice.
Are you thinking about introducing digital storytelling into a K-12 setting or perhaps into an after-school or community-based program? Mabry Middle School, in Marietta, Georgia, demonstrates how this approach can be a springboard to engage not only students but also the wider community. The award-winning school hosts its own annual black-tie event to showcase the work of young filmmakers. (Take a look at the 2007 winners.)
Inspired yet? Here are some resources to help you get started:
Educational Uses of Digital Storytelling offers a range of resources and tutorials for educators, including a discussion about research and evaluation.
The Center for Digital Storytelling has been providing training on and sharing information about this art form for more than a decade, both in the United States and internationally.
Stories for Change is building a network of people who are involved in community-based digital-storytelling workshops.
Bridges to Understanding, a Seattle-based nonprofit organization, works internationally with K-12 schools to promote cultural understanding through collaborative storytelling. The site includes a library of digital short stories made by students from around the world.
In an Edutopia.org interview, teacher Marco Torres describes the benefits of multimedia projects for high school students growing up in a high-poverty neighborhood near Los Angeles.
How are you using digital storytelling with your students? Tell us about the projects that have captured their imagination.

Very nice, clean, functional apartment. Excellent location close to metro. - Anonymous
This is a truly lovely budget hotel. At around €100 a night for a decent-
sized room with a private bathroom and shower, this is a great deal for
the location. We walked there from Gare du Nord; it's also very
convenient to the Metro, and there's a bike-sharing (Velib')
station just outside the front door. The staff is wonderful... Friendly,
cheerful, and very helpful. We ended up needing to leave a day early,
and there was no problem changing our reservation once we got there.
Overall, this is - Anonymous
The staff was very kind and helpfull. Room was clean, comfortable and quite big. The position of the hotel is fantastic. - Anonymous
Kitűnő helyen lévő apartman, nagyon szépen, hangulatosan, űj bútorokkal berendezve, szép környezetben. Belső udvarra néz, ezért csendes. Az egész lakás tiszta, jól felszerelt. Tömegközlekedés pár száz méterre, olcsó élelmiszerbolt a házzal szemben, pékség, cukrászda, éttermek a közelben. - Anonymous
st beuve is very lovely, well appointed and reasonablely priced. i will recommend it to my family and i will definately be returning. the staff was pleasant and helpful. - Anonymous
Excellent central location near the Opera area and walking distance to the Metro with short walk to the Louve area. Great Staff all very helpful, Charming rooms, Breakfast more than adequate, We would recomend this hotel for anyone who wants to be in real Paris. - Stephen

We found this place our first night of exploring. We had a drink and some nachos. Loved the view! The staff was so nice and friendly, and made us feel welcome. Would go back again.
We were recommended this place by fernando in the shopping center and we went in an hour before our ship left port they made our food fast and it was good! There were awesome views of our ship lit up right by the balcony.
We popped in for a quick late lunch and were not disappointed. Great service, guacamole, and shrimp quesadillas. Best of all was the view from above watching the street and water activity!
We enjoyed our lunch and it was upstairs so we enjoyed the view also!! The food was great!! Great service!!
Stopped in for snacks, and drinks. Ended up having lunch as well. While we were there one of the gals in our group injured herself. The owner was so concerned that he called the paramedics and waited in the Urgent Care waiting room to make sure she was alright. The owner is a truly stand up guy. If we are...
May 24th, stopped by for lunch and enjoyed some of the best coconut shrimp and nacho's i have eaten, don't take credit cards like most of the places in Cozumel any more, Ocean breeze with a view with good drinks and eats worth the steps for the view and right down town in the middle of shopping area.
The food here was awesome! As was the service! I also really liked the atmosphere, it had an amazing view of the ocean with a great breeze. Also it was quite large, we weren't crammed at all like in some places.
Highly recommend it!
Had lunch at Toro's Place. Service was very slow even for Cozumel! Food was average(not bad), but the worse issue to me is that they do not accept credit cards(not sure if they had an issue that day or what).
My boyfriend and I decided to venture downtown when we were sick of eating the same old resort buffet style meals. We ordered the taco trio which comes with 1 lobster, 1 shrimp and 1 carne asada taco...all of which were amazing! I ordered a strawberry daiquiri that was easily one of the best (and biggest) I have had in...
We stopped here for drinks while we were shopping one afternoon. Fast and friendly service and nice strong drinks. The second storey view overlooking the water & the cruise ship dock was great too. Can't comment on the food but the slushy cocktails on a hot day would bring me back for sure.
