    I can see going to Blackbeard's -- I like Blackbeards, myself -- but why the AI?

    Cuz thats what GROUPS of Guys used to do back then.. in POP and Boca Chica too.
    Some dudes had GF's and wives.. so there was that.
    And all your food and drink was covered..
    and at night you ventured out to Crystals or the Malecon or what not.
    In 2006 I still did not even Know Sosua had a wild Nightlife, i only went to Sosua during the day for the beach..
    thats just how it was for many of us.

    yes, somehow we missed the Good old Days of Sosua.. a tragedy of Epic Proportions.

    he is not the only one.

    so you get to arrive alive no taxi fares as its a bus that picks you up and drop you off and then unpack, sss, eat, drink, party, leave valuables in a semi secure location and venture off site for hours.........or days ...............and use the cabanas or st rooms and then pass out back the AI's if you want

    Well ... if you can game the system that way ... Well Done!

    (But are you "gaming the system that way" next week, for the Dusseldorf FKK trip? If so, I'm REALLY jealous! )

    I wish we could but it only works in 3rd world countries where they want to pack the tourists into the ai resorts by the plane load and sell off empty seats to single tourists as a way to make a few extra bucks
