Jason have no ideal about the GRZ? I e-mailed Friar's Inn several times, approx. location is less than two blocks from the Divi Flamingo, we have a friend that joined us after we had made our arrangements and we were looking for a place. Seems very resonable to me.

Grz could mean "Greets" (Ernst at Jibe City uses that in his e-mails), or be short for the Swiss Gruezi (means the same thing as "Greetings", or I assume what Ernst means by "Greets" :-) ). I think Gruezi comes from the German "Grussgott" (or "Greet God"), a common way of saying "hello". Although, using "greets" at the end of a message would be the same as "regards".

Confused yet? :-)

And yes, Friar's Inn is behind and to the left of the church (if you look at it from the front). Right across the street from Caribbean Fasteners.
