You know OT, I’m not a big fan of the Royalton or AIs in general anywhere, however it’s been cheaper to stay in a AI from the UK than get flight and hotel separately. And people we travel with the last few times prefer AI.
In terms of AI the rius were equally as controversial and I would never pay say sandals or couples prices not ever. It’s priced very high to travel from here.
However I do think there is much ado about nothing....development is everywhere and i personally accept that rather than live in the past.
Personally I think point village wants pulling down and i think hedonism is an embarrassment but I don’t go on about it cos I accept we all like different things and leave it at that.
We get our knickers in a twist about change more than the locals...and then we all keep returning... reminds me of the definition of insanity.
My comments about the boats reference the many posts on all forums where they have been sighted by many but no one has stated categorically that they were in the no swim zones or acting irresponsibly .
It’s like Chinese whispers gone mad... with the photo shown now being cited as off of a Cuban forum lol ..and people such as yourself saying the saw them but not that they were acting in a way that caused danger. So what was the storm in a teacup about.?
We just can’t hate on everything that’s outside of our norm... and our norm is often worse in many ways
Back to this post, leptospirosis can be contracted in many places, which I only learned last year. Our friend died they think because rats had infested his food storage. My husband says rats in storage is common in ja, so do we not eat there ? None if us see food storage and prep. You just gotta live your life at the end of the day, or live in a bubble.
Totally unconnected but sorry to hear about the young hockey team OT, so sad.... it’s been covered quite a lot on the national media over here. It’s always harder when it’s the young ones
