Had a great time at the Riu Playacar. This is our 2nd time there. The weather was great and the beaches were beautiful. I still wish we were still there. Please send me any pictures if you were down there during July 21-28 2006. Thanks, Bob.

Bob, Great pictures - but they are far to big to just add into a board post in that way - the width is such that they can't easily be viewed through some browsers and at 2.5megs each - they will hang the PC's of the people who access over dial up.
I've taken your pictures, resized them to 800x600, saved them at a lower quality (makes them about 50k each) and put the smaller versions into my web space at my ISP so they are usable in a post like this (I'll leave them there 'til I need the space back).

You can come back and edit this post again if you wish, the original code that showed the pictures is below

I've never had to do so much work to fix up a post before :-)

Bob, welcome to the board. Glad you had a good time but you need to reduce the size of your pics to post them like that here, why not just add them to our photo gallery and put in a link. I've sent you a PM re the above and your website link.

Interesting website Bob from duluth. You should add it to your profile as a "www". I think I could find myself in there for a couple of hours and still not see everything. laugh

That's only 6 properties away from the RPLA - have a great time.

I did mean to ask, did the butterfly leave a tan shadow?

I washed off the butterfly after they got done. They used oil paint so I was in the ocean trying to get it off. It ended up turning blue on the top of my shiny head. I will see if I can get someone to paint my head again. I could do a series of pictures of my painted head in different Hotels in Mexico except this time I will make sure I don't use oil paints again. Laughing
