You may have been detected. They weigh everything that goes on the plane and if it's too heavy, someone or something gets off, stowaways first. You probably could hang on to the wheel as they don't go up. If you brought a fishing pole, you could troll for the entire flight :D

Even if you get invited, be prepared to spend about $50,000.00 with the airfare, staff, food and tip for 2 people for a week. :eek: Like I said, I can't afford to stay there for 8 minutes.

Here is a U Tube video of the place we had to ourselves and two of those people were our staff. And some other link with stills and prices for different seasons. I can't afford it at all and I am fairly sure not many here can either. Like I said Our Daughter and Son N Law took us and I only...

The view from that place is unbelievable. Water all around and all you hear is the surf and birds with the occasional tortoise moving through the leaves. The pool had a waterfall and could fit fifty people but it was only us. Really a nice vacation. The fact that mortals can't afford it is the...

The first night there my wife and I had that entire place to ourselves. We stayed mostly in the pool, then drove around to the beautiful beaches none of which had anyone on them except tortoises. We ate like we were in heaven because the chef will prepare just about anything you can imagine...

I forgot to mention when we were waiting for that little plane to get off the ground I glanced at the safety pamphlet in the seat in front of me. It read, "If you see smoke or flames coming from under the wing, inform the pilot". I also read the safety equipment that comes with the plane...

On the drive up the mountain, more of a hill, I spotted a tortoise. I wanted to stop and put him back off the road but then I spotted another, and another. They are very common there and it would be a waste of time to move them all. The roads are very bad and not “really” paved although there...

In the meantime you can find out about this Island here. Here's a Private Caribbean Island Where You Can Stay in David Bowie's Former Villa

We were on an interesting tiny Caribbean Island last week and I started a thread about it in the Lounge or whatever they call Off Topic here.

Our Vacation It's actually hard to call anything a Vacation when you are retired so I should have said, "Our Trip". Anyway this was to the Caribbean but it wasn't a normal Caribbean Island. This was a private Island off Saint Vincent. The Island is about 2 miles long and a mile wide. You...

Yes it is. And on top of it all it is snowing so hard here now that I seen a chicken with a Cape-on

Everything is a battle which is why I never hire anyone for anything if I can help it. I am trying to get this contract to sign to sell my house and I want to sell and the buyers want to buy but the lawyers make a big deal out of everything and complicate it to no end. There is no need to have...

Yes something like that. :)

Most of my tank build will be me hauling buckets of water out of the ocean. If I get time (I am waiting for varnish to dry now on the "guts" of the bed I built before I can put on a second coat) I want to make a 12 volt bilge pump with a FIFTY FOOT hose on it along with a wire to connect to...

I will be ordering a new 125 gallon tank soon but I am still torn if I want a new fangled sump yet. I am not sure if I want the thing drilled with that overflow in the corner. I know I will be trying to fish my bluestripe pipefish and clown gobies out of there every two days. I am planning to...

Thanks. Their inspector came today to inspect my house. He crawled through crawl spaces, squeezed behind things, searched in places i didn't even know I had. When he was finished he said to me. "I never saw a house like this, I can't find even one thing to write, everything is perfect". I...

All still immune here, all is well. I took down my blackworm tank for the move. I think we sold the house and their inspector is coming over today to inspect things. Even he will find my fish immune although all the outlets and "creative" electrical work he may not appreciate or understand...

So a weird thing happened yesterday. I think we sold the house and should go to contract in a day or so. That is not the weird part. A half an hour after we made the deal, about 6:00 PM our door bell rings. It was a very pretty Asian lady in her late 40s. My wife recognized her as one of the...

OK so I fixed the vacuum and put back the blue bucket that is my RO/DI resivour for the tank. WE went out for the day as the bucket filled. But,,,,There is always a But. Now I don't have my blackworm tank there as I took it out for the move so the waste water for the worms just goes into a...

David, no one repairs anything any more. You can usually throw out the electronics and fix most things with mechanical relays and transformers. You may lose some function that you never used anyway but if you don't need that function, it pays. I can buy a new whole house vacuum for $500.00 or...
