METHOD OF OPERATION
The name given to the larger project is Pier 32 Gateway Village Marina & RV Resort. In the
future, this project may include further development to Pier 32 Marina. As uses for areas are
deemed financially feasible, the land use designation is suitable, and no net loss of Maritime
Industrial land is accomplished, the method of operation shall be further defined. Immediately,
a RV Resort is feasible, within the land use designation, and no net loss of Maritime Industrial
land is incurred.
Pier 32 Gateway Village Marina & RV Resort Operational Plan
The name given to this proposed RV resort project is Pier 32 RV Resort and will consist of
approximately 165 RV rental sites. The entity to be formed for this development is intended to
be Pier 32 RV Resort, LLC and, as referenced previously, John and Beverley Grimstad are the
proposed principals. It is intended that GB Capital Holdings, LLC (GB) would be under contract
with Pier 32 RV Resort, LLC to operate the business and serve as the property management
entity. GB Capital Holdings corporate office is located in San Diego, California. The corporate
office location will be responsible for the following operational and administrative duties:

Key Personnel Positions
All on site Pier 32 RV Resort personnel will be employees of GB. It is anticipated that there will
be 6 to 7 full time employees for the RV operations. The foundation of our company's ability to
provide tenant services will be our on-site personnel, with the key positions of Property
Manager, Office Manager managing the day to day operations. Descriptions of the two key
positions are as follows:
Property Manager:
This individual will be the manager of the RV property and responsible for all on-site
operations. He/she will supervise the entire local staff and other vendors that provide services
to the property. His/hers responsibilities will include but not be limited to the following: direct
SOIQ 12 - 13

maintenance/housekeeping staff, supervise office personnel, insure guest compliance with the
property rules and regulations, coordinates sales and marketing efforts, conduct regular
inspections for maintenance and environmental compliance, coordinate customer service,
guest, tenant and public relations.
Office Manager:
The Office manager and supporting office staff will be responsible for all clerical and
administrative work in the RV office operations as well as sales and leasing of RV Spaces and
Environmental Living Units. The on-site RV office will handle processing of new RV space
rentals, guest screening, daily banking, customer file compliance, rent collections,
delinquencies, security deposit refund processing and overall customer service responsibilities.
Guest Services and Assistance:
Office Hours:
Our philosophy has always been to have an accessible "open door" policy, beginning with 7
days a week (and a 24-Hour on-call member of the team) with 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. office
hours (including most holidays). This allows us to be continually available to meet with new
customers, address on-going customer needs and concerns, identify and implement
unscheduled site repairs. We are committed to ensuring that all guests enjoy a positive
experience.
Communication and Service:
Communication is the cornerstone of good guest service. An integral part of our plan includes a
provision for daily resort walks and property inspections by our employees. This will allow us to
communicate daily with tenants and enhance our accessibility. Other vital elements will
include an on-site activities director/concierge, newsletters, and regularly updated bulletin
boards. These additional services will help develop a sense of community and a "Resort"
atmosphere that will enhance and add value to the guest experience.
Environmental Safeguards:
We feel it is incumbent on any operator to help guest comply with the environmental
challenges of RV use. We will insure proper recycling, sewage disposal, trash disposal, provide
waste oil recycling and battery removal. Our staff will be properly trained to respond to hazards
and protect the environment. We will educate our guest and the public of the benefits and
sensitivity of the wildlife preserves that are adjacent to the property. We will remain proactive.
Maintenance Plan:
We develop, build, and operate our properties. We have established routines and maintenance
on all properties including daily walks, property inspections and on-call personnel. No others
are as well suited to understand the construction and we are confident in our ability to
maintain and repair our facilities. We have a long term vested interest.
Retail Tenants:
Pier 32 RV Resort has designed the project layout to accommodate Granger Hall, a rental kiosk,
guest amenities and other related retail spaces. It is our intention to sublease or operate these
related businesses.

PROPOSED METHOD OF FINANCING
DEVELOPMENT OR LEASEHOLD PURCHASE
Describe the method of financing for the Leasehold purchase or any new or additional
development on District tidelands in excess of $100,000. Include a schedule of approximate
dates when construction of each significant improvement is expected to be commenced and
completed.
SEE FOLLOWING PAGE
SOIQ 12 - 13
Page 14
Pier 32 Gateway Village Marina & RV Resort
METHOD OF FINANCING
The Proposer's (John and Beverley Grimstad) past 40 years of financing experience has been
concentrated in new property acquisitions, refinancing existing developments, running
profitable businesses and arranging for lines of credit to pursue commercial real estate
investments. John and Beverley are partners and principals in all the marina projects currently
operated by GB Capital Holdings, LLC and Beauchamp Realty, Inc. The Grimstads have worked
and continue to partner with Travelers Insurance, Manulife, Ralston Purina, California Bank &
Trust, Sanwa Bank, Bank of Southern California, and Wells Fargo.
It is anticipated that Pier 32 RV Resort, LLC will pursue a conventional financing arrangement
with an established lending institution for the project. The preliminary proposal and startup
expenses (estimated $500,000) will be paid directly from the principals personal financial
resources. Any additional expenses leading up to the funding of the initial construction loan will
also be paid with the principal's cash reserves.
Construction of the proposed development will be primarily financed by a construction loan through a
conventional lender. Our Proforma estimated project cost totals approximately ($7,029,000). A
summary of these construction/startup costs is included within the Concept Development Plan.
Proposer has projected a 20% equity participation in the total project cost. It is anticipated that these
funds will come from the redemption of liquid money assets (money market funds, CD’s, or mutual
funds) and from personal financial cash reserves. This 20% equity participation (approximately
$1,405,800) will be deposited in a special construction fund account just prior to the funding of an
initial construction loan for Pier 32 Gateway Village Marina and RV Resort.
Preliminary discussions indicate that the probable source of this construction loan will be Wells Fargo.
Wells Fargo has an established relationship with the Grimstad family. The lender has represented that
the terms of the construction loan will be an interest only arrangement for an estimated period of 18 to
21 months. This 21-month period of interest only financing should allow for the estimated 10-month
construction period as well as the first 8 to 10 months of operation. It is anticipated that after the first
10 months of operations the interim financing will be converted into a term loan.
Initial discussions with our lender indicate that the term loan would most likely have a 15 year
amortization schedule with a 5 to 7 year due date. The lender has also represented that several
renewable options to coincide with the 5 to 7 year due dates could structured into the note. It is
expected that this note will be secured by the leasehold interest in the property as well as personally
guaranteed by the principals. The current proposed lending institution and contact is as follows:

PROJECT APPROACH
ENVIRONMENTALLY SENSITIVE DESIGN
Among the handful of firms truly practicing
ecological design, none are delivering large,
complex building projects at a higher level of
performance and beauty than the Miller Hull
Partnership. Contributing to this success is their
skill in orchestrating a highly collaborative design
process with their consulting partners and project
stakeholders, their performance-based design
approach, and the rigor and discipline they bring
to their work.
Robert Pe a, Associate Professor, University of Washington
Department of Architecture, Integrated Design Lab 2. 2012
This project is expected to demonstrate that coastal development and
environmental stewardship are not exclusive. As was stated by Laura
Hunter of the Environmental Health Coalition at the California Coastal
Commission hearing on July 11th, the environmental community has
pledged their support of the CVBMP with the expectation that the
built product represents the best in coastal development. The first
significant project within the CVBMP to go vertical, the Pacifica project
will set the bar for the future build out, and it is imperative that the
first phase meets the expectations of all stakeholders, particularly the
environmental organizations.
NATIONAL TOP TEN EARTH DAY AWARDS
This challenge is exhilarating for us, as our reputation is based
on 3 years of designing projects in sensitive sites. Our work is
designed to leave the smallest possible footprint on its environment.
We incorporate green building techniques from the early conceptual
phase, resulting in long-term operational and maintenance cost
savings by reducing the amount of energy needed to operate the
building as well as the amount of energy required to construct the
building. With our extensive experience, we can guide you through
the cost-benefit analysis of each sustainable strategy component.
OTHER SUSTAINABLE DESIGN AWARDS
Miller Hull is committed to being sustainable in our business practices,
as well. To offset the greenhouse gasses produced in our operation
energy use, production of office equipment and supplies, etc. , we
purchase Green Tags, which substitute renewable energy sources to
ensure our office is Carbon Neutral.
2010
Sustainable principles are inherent in everything that Miller Hull
produces, but the degree that we design to is determined by the
client. We work with our clients to determine how environmentally
beneficial design can enhance their particular project and integrate
with their priorities.

COST CONTROL, COLLABORATION & FLEXIBILITY
OUR APPROACH
We have found the best way to stay on schedule is to stay on budget, utilizing a
. This
should include integration of your general contractor early in the process. Working closely with CM/GCs and/or
independent estimators provides pertinent cost intelligence in “real time” as we monitor market conditions, which
in turn informs the design. Our best successes resulted from using costing data beyond the pricing milestones to
facilitate life-cycle cost studies, analyze cost and schedule risk, and facilitate value engineering workshops. Miller
Hull will be intimately involved in these efforts, reviewing and ensuring that
, and we will facilitate efficient CM/GC cost reconciliations when available to ensure smooth and
efficient transitions from phase to phase.
In addition to controlling costs, the single most effective key to schedule management is planning and
communication. As we commence each project in our office, the entire design process is planned including critical
path relationships, participation among key team members and core steering groups, key presentations, regular
team meetings, progress submittals, agency coordination, CM/GC procurement and constructability tasks if
applicable, and review periods all within established, realistic phase durations. The schedule is the team’s road
map for a project and it must be clear and current.
PERFORMING WITHIN BUDGET
Early decisions establish the foundation for project success. In this economic climate where public institutions are
under pressure to make smart and careful decisions, our process includes budgetary “check-points” throughout
the process. Program verification allows for budget reconciliation to occur from the very start and sets the tone for
conceptual design work to be developed afterwards. Cost reports developed after the completion of each subphase allows the project to make minor, incremental adjustments during the course of conceptual design without
significant impacts. It has been our experience that substantial changes late in the design process have the
greatest, adverse project cost and schedule impacts. While this approach keeps the project within the budget and
on schedule, it also manages expectations among the various constituents from drastic changes in design
direction. This successful model applies to either Design-Bid-Build or CM/GC delivery methods.
Tracking costs during the design process would be proposed to occur at these stages:
•
is performed, comparing the project’s starting point with other
comparable projects at academic institutions and market forecasts. This exercise strives to make the cost of
the project more open and understandable to everyone, particularly with those without a cost estimating
background, as the project begins the visioning process.
•
is developed once the program needs are identified, and where historical costs for
similar projects are compared to the program. Our team will investigate and develop budgets for portions of
the work.
•
will be developed for each program layout option for evaluation before proceeding
with the preferred option. Our team will compare the costs of the various program options, and refine and
develop costs for the building envelop and interiors. This work includes further refinement of costs for on and
off site development.
•
is the estimate of probable cost for the one preferred and developed approach
option, and is updated as the project proceeds from Design Development through Construction Documents.
Life-cycle costing studies can also assist in decision making during the schematic design process by shedding light
on potential operations and maintenance (O&M) costs. We recognize that proper funding for O&M costs can be
difficult for a public agency. We encourage the University to take these opportunities into consideration when
budgeting a project such as this — particularly keeping this facility’s attractiveness in tip-top shape to properly
serve as a recruitment tool. Our team can assist with both the capital and operations budgets during these critical
planning efforts.

Analysis of long-term operations
and life-cycle costs based on
mixed-use program
Public promenade connects to
numerous parks and other
commercial development
U D
The Wharf at Point Loma is a commercial and marina development on Port of San Diego property
in America’s Cup Harbor. A planned 30,000-square-foot
project, the initial phase of approximately 20,000-square-feet
has completed construction. The ground floor of the development is activated with a restaurant and retail spaces, while the
upper levels are offices and other marina support functions
with decks and expanses of windows looking out to the view. A
combination of owner-occupied and tenant space, the offices
have been designed to allow functional flexibility and to adapt
to the changing needs of the facility over time. This mix also
required a careful balancing of the long-term operations lifecycle costs with the initial expenditure.

The design expression draws inspiration from San Diego’s working waterfront, with an honest expression of structural framing and simple forms, materials and
clean details. Heavy timber with galvanized steel fittings frame
large expanses of glass oriented toward the waterfront.

Site development included a continuous 10-foot-wide public promenade

The design incorporates a post-and-beam
structural system with exposed glulam columns and beams,
exposed wood decking at ceilings, and exposed bolted plate
connections. The building’s linear form is an extrusion of shed
roofs with a raised clerestory roof monitor. Exterior materials include durable cement-board siding at the lower story base and
ship-lap cedar siding at the upper story. Sloped roofs utilize
standing-seam metal roofing panels. Interior spaces open up
to the promenade and upper terrace with expansive operable
overhead doors. Site work includes a pedestrian promenade
that connects to gangways and piers.
I think the designs of Point Loma Marina and Pier 32
embody the working waterfront with attention to the
relationship between people, the land and water. The
designs are unique, innovative and yet “Old World” in their
construction palate.

rick engineering company
Rick Engineering Company is an award winning, multi-disciplined
planning, design, and engineering corporation founded in 1955. We
maintain divisions that focus on civil engineering, transportation and
traffic engineering, urban design and planning, redevelopment, landscape
architecture, construction services, surveying, mapping, photogrammetry,
water resources, and geographic information systems (GIS). Our
company’s broad array of development-related design disciplines allow us
to provide comprehensive services that can be managed in-house to
assure optimum project quality and efficiency. The advantage is not
merely that we have the specialized skills required, but that we can better
control the character, timing, and cost of this effort.
With over 196 employees
company-wide, we are
capable of mobilizing
quickly on projects,
providing the utmost
quality of service.
Our company promotes a continuous emphasis and commitment to quality control through all phases of
the project. This is facilitated by attention to the company’s manual on quality control standards,
periodic quality control seminars, and staff performance reviews throughout the company. These
measures are applied to all levels of work including project scheduling, internal reviews, record keeping,
documentation, and plan preparation. The assigned project engineer maintains a quality control plan
and checklists for each project task. Quality control review is conducted by our Project Manager
throughout the development of the project and prior to plan finalization.
Office Locations
San Diego, Orange, Riverside,
San Luis Obispo, Sacramento,
Phoenix, Tucson
We have significant experience in dealing with the regulations,
processes, and personnel of various agencies. This familiarity goes
beyond the lead agencies to include significant experience with other
local agencies, utilities, and communities. This local agency experience
and familiarity will provide significant value when involving multiple
agency stakeholders.
Our standard is to provide our clients with an exceptional product of the highest quality. At the onset of
every project, we conduct exhaustive field research to better acquaint ourselves with each of the
project's dynamics. We put careful forethought into identifying potential opportunities and constraints
at the initiation of the process to ensure effective and efficient mitigation measures.
We pride ourselves on treating our customers as though we were a boutique firm so that our customers
enjoy personal service with easy access to our project manager, while also benefiting from our broad
range of services. It is this philosophy that has awarded us the “Engineering Project of the Year” eight
times in the past three years by the American Public Works Association, the American Society of Civil
Engineers, and the California Society of Professional Engineers and Land Surveyors. We hope to embark
on future projects with our goal being to achieve the same level of success.
On any project we undertake, adherence to schedule and budget is of utmost importance. Project
challenges must be identified at the outset to avoid adverse effect to the project's schedule and budget.
Design must not only work on paper, but must provide for constructability and minimal disruption to the
stakeholders. We take seriously the financial restrictions that exist for every project. Timeliness,
accuracy, and cost-adherence are the hallmarks of a Rick project.
Our goal with every project is to achieve client satisfaction, not only with the final product, but with the
process as well. We show our clients that they are in good hands with us and we understand that the
best relationships are those based upon open, candid communication.

1994-2009
M&A was the prime consultant for the construction of an intertidal salt marsh to fulfill mitigation requirements
associated with the National City Wharf Extension Project. When M&A was awarded the design and engineering
contract, a site had been selected along the north side of the D Street Fill in the City of Chula Vista. The M&A
Team reviewed the existing conceptual design plan for the proposed restoration and provided a value engineering
review for the purposes of developing a functional marsh habitat at the site. M&A completed preliminary field
investigations to confirm target vegetation elevation range distribution, sediment grain size, TOC and TKN,
topography and hydrology for the site.
The M&A Team then prepared final design plans and coordinated with resource and regulatory agencies regarding
site design. The restoration consisted of approximately 6.0 acres of created intertidal habitat including an
intertidal basin intercepted by a network of primary, secondary, and tertiary channels. Elevations ranged from
approximately 1.9 to 10.4 feet MLLW and included areas of mudflat, as well as, high, middle, and low coastal salt
marsh habitats. M&A provided construction monitoring and field support for Port construction management while
the site was constructed.
Following construction, M&A collaborated with Port Environmental Management staff for the implementation of a
marsh habitat planting program to introduce endangered salt marsh bird’s-beak (Cordylanthus maritimus ssp.
maritimus) and accelerate the colonization of California cordgrass (Spartina foliosa).
M&A prepared a mitigation and monitoring plan and implemented the five-year program. The monitoring
program was completed in 2009, and the D Street Marsh successfully exceeded its mitigation requirements.
Subsequent to the construction of the marsh, the endangered light-footed clapper rail, Belding’s savannah
sparrow, western snowy plover, and California least tern have all been noted to
use the marsh. The project was designed and constructed on schedule and within the project budget.

City of Coronado
Mr. Jerome Torres
619-522-7305
2005-2012
The City of Coronado’s Glorietta Bay Master Plan is a comprehensive waterfront redevelopment project. As a part
of the project, the City proposed to: dredge an existing marina; repair failing riprap shoreline; replace and
reconfigure deteriorating marina docks; remove an over-water marina building and replace the building landside;
make upland promenade and roadway improvements along Strand Way/Pomona Ave; and implement an eelgrass
habitat creation project to mitigate project impacts.
Dredging was necessary to remove accumulated sediment beneath the Glorietta Bay Marina and provide adequate
depth for safe navigation. Work included removal and replacement of riprap that had migrated outward from the
failing armored shoreline edge, as well as, bay muds from an area of approximately 1.6 acres beneath the docks.
Additional excavation was done to create a revetment keyway and remove failing slope materials beyond the
limits of marina dredging. The shoreline work resulted in removal of approximately 900 cy of material from along
the bank.
To mitigate for project impacts, in-bay, beneficial reuse of sediment and reclaimed rock was proposed. The
dredged material was used to develop an eelgrass mitigation site within waters of Glorietta Bay that were too
deep to support eelgrass. The project reused salvaged revetment stone and excavated dredged material to create
a submerged plateau adjacent to the lower elevations of existing eelgrass beds located south of the existing
Glorietta Bay public launch ramp.
Merkel & Associates conducted all aspects of the environmental regulatory program sediment testing,
documentation, and permitting. M&A also conducted the environmental support services needed for the CEQA
actions. M&A designed and implemented the eelgrass mitigation work for the project and in 2012, the final
eelgrass monitoring was completed with the site exceeding project mitigation needs.

U.S.S Midway Museum
Mr. Rich Benard
(619) 398-8227
2001-2011
Merkel & Associates worked with the San Diego Aircraft Carrier Museum (SDACM) to satisfy state and federal
permitting requirements for the permanent mooring of the U.S.S. Midway as an historic museum on San Diego
Bay. The permits required included a Corps of Engineers section 10 permit, a Clean Water Act section 401 state
water quality certification, an Endangered Species Act section 7 consultation, an essential fish habitat consultation
under the Magnuson-Stevens Act, and a controversial Coastal Commission Coastal Development Permit and Port
Master Plan Amendment. Subsequent to moving the Midway into berthing position, a State Lands Commission
lease was necessary to move the ship bayward past the pierhead line in order to move the ship's rudders off of the
formational slope and into deeper water.
Critical to obtaining permits for permanent berthing of the U.S.S. Midway, M&A worked with the SDACM Board
and Port as well as resource and regulory agencies to identify a mitigation sites for offsetting nearly 4 acres of bay
coverage by creating additional open water habitat. The work settled on acquisition of a tidal reach of the historic
Sweetwater River Channel and restoring and creating additional tidal marshlands on what is known as Lovett
Marsh. M&A developed a marsh restoration program at Lovett Marsh. The firm completed the conceptual and
final restoration plans, obtained environmental permits, conducted the project construction, prepared the postrestoration monitoring plan, and conducted the monitoring and reporting. The end result developed
approximately an approximately 14 acres wetland, involving 80,000 cy of excavation and dredging.
The restored marsh includes 3 acres of open water habitat created by a main marsh channel running across the
site and three permanent, tidally-flushed basins, as well as new low, middle, and high marsh habitat. At the end of
the 5-year monitoring program, the marsh had met its mitigation obligations and was fully accepted by resource
and regulatory agencies. Additional mitigation created at the marsh was used by the San Diego Maritime Museum
to offset impacts of up to 0.5 acres of bay coverage under programmatic mooring permits. M&A presently
provides long-term stewardship monitoring and maintenance through a revenue stream funding mechanism for
the mitigation project.

PIER 32 GATEWAY VILLAGE MARINA &
RV RESORT PROJECT CONCEPT
Pier 32 Gateway Village Marina & RV Resort will compliment the tourism in National City. This
new tourist base will naturally co-exist with the Pier 32 Marina guest and create a complete
village in National City. Considering the median home price in the US is just over $200k and the
Median motor coach is $150k, it is apparent that persons who choose RV lifestyles have
discretionary income and are willing to spend it.
Pier 32 RV Resort will consist of approximately 165 RV high end rental sites. The resort will
offer an open plan to accommodate today’s and the future’s complex RV lifestyle. This will be a
full service resort that takes advantage of the access to San Diego Bay via the Sweetwater River
and Pier 32 Marina. We propose that the picturesque views to the south-Los Coronado Islands,
Tijuana, The Nature Center, to the east -the Mountain View, and to the North -the city views;
will entice these travelers with what National City has to offer.
The Resort will be integrated with the existing Pier 32 Marina and Pier 32 Waterfront Grill. The
management team would be combined to provide engaging, distinctive, and uncompromising
customer service to our customer and the public.
The Pier 32 Gateway Village Marina & RV Resort will offer an amenity package that may include or

Pier 32 Gateway Village Marina & RV Resort
Pier 32 Gateway Village Marina & RV Resort will consist of a village that encapsulates the
National City Vision Plan. Here is a narrative of what we propose one might experience:
As you enter “the Village” on Bay Marina Drive, you know that you have arrived when you see
the beautiful Best Western and Busters on the left and to the right, a small retail center, a
couple of new restaurants, a sandwich shop and a fueling station. The kids note the Rail Road
Station with the historic artifacts abundant in the yard and ask if they can go to the museum
now! Your family is so excited you almost miss the marquee that directs you to the Granger Hall
event center, Pepper Park, the Marina & RV Resort and the public launch ramp.
You continue your drive down Marina Way and the trains are moving on the tracks to the right
while trucks with bananas on them grab the kid’s attention again – “that’s the kind of banana
we get mom.” Then the whole family notices the pockets of green and the wildlife of the
preserve that have been created along the road. There are people riding bikes, joggers, and
pedestrians utilizing adjacent bike path. The giant American flag is seen down the road and the
kids squeal again – “We’re here!”
The 45’ motor coach pulls toward the entrance to the park and into the queuing area. Staff
greets you with enthusiasm and area/activity map in hand. You are quickly checked in, and
headed towards your vacation retreat. Dad turns onto Kimball way, right onto Granger Hall, and
enters paradise.
The space is wide and long enough to pull the coach in without disconnecting the family car.
The kids spill out and immediately flow from the vehicle like spilled water going in every
direction. Your family is too ramped up to set up camp and decides to take a walk to the water
park.
As you move towards the Marina, you see the club house and people lounging around the
pool. Beyond the pool, the entire family spots the water park with kids moving through the
sprinkling dripping water features. The kids in shorts can’t help but enter the water park and
are immediately soaked. Mom and Dad move beyond the park, relieved. You examine Granger
Hall in the distance and note the other buildings surrounding it. Past the water park, over the
public promenade, is a sandy beach that overlooks the water’s edge. In the water a paddle boat
moves slowly as a kayak passes it up. Sail boats glide through the water past Pepper Park and
the fishing pier where a grandpa takes a photo of his grandson with his first fish. In the
Sweetwater River there is a massive ship. The kids read out loud the name “Jean Ann” and take
note not just of the great big mural on the side but point out a ramp coming down the back.
The kids ask “Is that a fire truck followed by a tank?...How Cool!!!”
The resort guide states that a future hotel will be adjacent to Granger Hall. You are struck with
nostalgia and say “Granger Hall, that’s where grandmas 96th birthday will be held.” You gather
the kids and head up the promenade towards the Marina and notice all of the doors to The
Waterfront Grill rolled up and welcoming you. All of the sudden you are salivating and your
stomach starts grumbling. You grab a to-go menu, a bottle of wine for Mom and Dad along
with ice cream for the kids. Now it is time to get back to the coach to set up camp, knowing that
you have all week to explore the mysteries of the Resort & Marina.
