The Patio, Kelley's Irish Pub, The Riverside Cafe, Lennie's Liberty Lounge (extreme dive bar), Captain Hirams (if you can get a ride to sebastian)..and if you want to eat, Ay Jalisco has good mexican food...Siam Orchid has good sushi and thai food.....hope it helps  Oh ya, and if you get bored of the local entertainment, go on some observation flights.....the more you do, the more it'll help...just look at the schedule and pick flights that match your stage of training (look for VC aircraft if you're starting from scratch) |

The mall (Indian River I think) as you head out to the highway has a good movie theater. That place kept me alive while I was stuck in Florida.

wow, why show up TEN days early? Maybe you can get the books and read ahead. and gemini flights are a good idea, but I don't know how that will work unless you got a uniform already.

movies....we don't need no stinkin' movies.. If you go to the theater, just make sure you don't go to TGI Friday's before the movies unless you have more discipline than me....not once did I make it to the movie I intended to go to if I stopped there first.... |

[ QUOTE ] are they made of brick? that might be why... [/ QUOTE ] that's actually, exactly why. The dorms are built to a certain hurricane standard, and thus wireless really isn't an option here. |
