Quick Halloween report..BIGDENX...all positive!

Hey!

Not too much different to report, but a few highlights.

Didn't get robbed...nobody wanted the trash in the CHARADE.

Took an AA bump in MIA and got a grand and a Marriott suite in SJU for a night.

Mosquito elimination program is working...no dengue here. Bring DEET.

La Vista clean, convenient and professionally managed. EXCELLENT!

TOPPERS two locations provided us with social rehab since SSBB is a fond memory and replacement underwhelming.

EVERY report on TOPPER'S meat items in caps...The filet just moved to # 1 on our list beating out both Mark's and Harry's.

HOLLYWOOD CASINO was kind with the roulette wheel hot for us 4 nights in a row. Midnight snack buffets, fast comped drinks and good promotions...THANKS LINDA !

Sad vibes still resounding concerning Mike H. and Church Marsden all over the Island. No new information about the accident.

Photo ops were limited with little traffic at Juliana, didn't do any post OMAR shots, cleanup is progressing well.

Good companionship with lots of familiar faces as well as 2 groups of visiting plane photogs. from NYC and London.

MAHO beach is back in all of it's splendour but the South end is extremely rocky, most sunning taking place on new chaises at DRIFTWOOD, many topless.

Halloween was BUSY with many venues offering prizes. Made it to Toppers and Piano; Michele ran out of steam too early but was a hit as Sarah Palin.

Just reserved for HEINEKEN and looking forward to New Year's.

She gets my vote in a HEARTBEAT!

Glad you had a good trip and made a few bucks to boot.I agree Toppers food & bar were pretty good last Feb too. We'll check them out again in a few weeks.Don't worry we'll also go back to Uncle Harry's place. Mark's is another I haven't missed for 20+ yrs.Thanks for reminding me and great picture. I see you got to the heart of the matter.

Great trip report. Thanks so much. Sometimes a few words speak thousands...

And Michelle looked great as Sarah the plumber! Glad your Halloween was a blast.

Hey big guy! We meet up with the rest of the crew at Lady C and the place was crazy. Sorry u guys couldn't join us for Part II of Halloween. We really enjoyed dinner with you both at Toppers and Lee's. Spent the last evening with John & Michelle at SkipJacks with cocktails at 3 Palms. I wrote a report on the other site but just a part I accommodations. I'm still working on the rest of it and will send you Halloween photos privately.

We're back in April but won't be the same without the "crew!"

Give my love to Michelle.

Louise
