Hi,

Just paid my Pelican fee of $1153.55 for a one   bedroom, for one week, those are horrible prices,
when is this going to stop, so the owner ran off with the inurance money, but that was years ago,
the upkeep fees are WAY to high. Laura Hurley

Response to Joann Leonard: Give a tip to them as I and others do. Either daily (recommended) or
weekly. That's what they live on.

Response to David Horn:
It is a universally accepted practice in real estate - commercial, residential and construction,
to base costs and expenses on a square foot (or meter) basis. If you purchase a condo (ex. New York etc.),
will do so on a square foot basis including the common areas (elevators, hallways etc.) - including
their respective maintenance charges. If you have a 2,000 sq. ft. home you pay taxes based on its size.
If your home is 3,000 sq. ft. you will pay 1000 sq. ft. more in taxes. Hope this helps all the renters
out there.

Timeshare Legislation -  there is not a separate time share
law, but newly introduced time share rights, which have been
incorporated in Book 7 of the Civil Code of the Netherlands
Antilles (“Purchase of rights of use in timesharing of real
property”) , whereby an ownership right of the right to
temporarily use (per week etc) for real estate has been
constituted.  It is Federal legislation and therefore
applicable to all the Island Territories that form
part of the Netherlands Antilles (Curacao, Bonaire,
St. Maarten, Saba and St. Eustatius)

Donations to Crystal Children's Home:

This organization has no government funding to help house,
feed and clothe the 13 children they have placed there. I
am hoping your website can assist them in raising funds
and receiving donations of food and clothing. Credit can be
made at Grand Marche for groceries, GEBE for utilities
etc. Many people leave bags of food in their rooms at the
end of vacation, they could be encouraged to take it to
AQUA MARINA ADVENTURES as a donation (unopened items) to the
home instead. Thank you, Best Regards,
Debby Lind - Aqua Mania Adventures.

BOOK EXCHANGE AT PELICAN B POOL
If anyone has any books, noodles or craft materials that they have
enjoyed using while at the resort but would rather not take back
with them, they can always leave them with me. I have a fairly large
book exchange but new materials always appreciated. Also, If anyone
has BOOKS ON TAPE or CD and would like to bring them down for me, I
would appreciate it. I would like to start a listening
book exchange in addition to the traditional book exchange.
