also dont forget unless you are medallion delta charges $15 for first bag and $25 for a second bag check, so to transport the box will cost more then your wine.

jost trip from STJ

so we are thinking of taking the ferry over to get a bit more time rather then a charter which is more $$ as we did a few years ago. Once the ferry drops us off - what do we do? do we cab it? what should we do once we are on Jost besides, foxys and soggy? just looking for ideas! THanks!!

ferry to STJ
