Hey OP, you're not the only one who can take some time off, I'm on vacation too! Check it out!





There were dried fish bones several inches deep right next to the shore. I'd post the video of me crunching the bones under my shoe and the subsequent slightly viscous green water that seeps up afterwards, but my brother kept talking while I was recording.

wow OP sucks your stuck on a tropical island and extra day!!!! maybe start a gofundme :shrug:

So I did the wheelin' and dealin', and threw in the crying wife into the barter, and got a decent discount off a room at one of the super hermetically sealed shiny fancy sandals-esque resorts right next to the airport.



All inclusive is nice, but it's weird to me the type of person who would fly so many miles to visit a little jewel of an isle in the Caribbean and then hide in a resort that caters to all your needs, but basically keeps you from experiencing most of what the island and it's people have to offer.


That said, my feet are cover in some awful bites from the place we originally stayed at, so, lol, maybe I am the idiot.

This is why delta is #1. Gg op though lol. Why’d you miss it? JUst do the full self own

I'm gonna be real with yall.

I'm gonna be fuckin' real.

This "airport"...

This "international airport" that takes 4 to 5 flights a day I imagine, is smaller than a regional airport back home.

Check on should have been like 30 min.

I was legit just naively relaxed about arrival and check in and so we had a chill rear end lunch here:



And you know what... it was a very good lunch.

Not miss your flight good, but then, what can you do.



We got there 55 min before the flight, and delta there said suck a dick. Cut off was 5 min ago.

And that was that.

We spent an hour and a half regrouping and then negotiating and setting up new accommodations, then another 20 once we were in our new room at the c0conut bay resort on the phone with delta and they set us up for a flight tomorrow.

Good guy.
One love.

My guy, I straight up have been "drinking" since about 10 a m. This morning, but to no avail! The stuff at all the bars at the all inclusive resort was uh... well.

I don't want to be mean to them, they were very nice to help us out but...


Lets just say I've been drinking since 10, and I never got even a buzz.

Not too much to report, I'm helping my brother move from San Diego by loading up the truck and driving his car (10 ft truck so no car hitch). We had a couple extra days so we went around the city and mountains, behind which is the Salton Sea.

I'll upload the video after I can edit out the dialogue, but it's not as bad as people make it out to be. The surrounding city is fine, albeit small. You have to get close to the water before it hits you.

The homes (trailer and mobile) aren't bad about half a mile from the shoreline but as you approach they get worse and worse until they are all graffiti and broken windows.

The smell is amazingly awful. It's a combination of sulphur, various agricultural chemicals and dead fish baking in the sun. It makes staying by the water really hard unless you don't breathe through your nose or maybe have a mask.

The water is murky but kind of pretty. It's very blue and still has some life (in the form of algae bloom and, I've been told, two very hearty species of fish). There's also a lot of garbage and structure foundations dotting the sand/bones, but I couldn't even begin to figure out what they were.

I do reccomend checking it out if you happen to be in socal. It's eerily quiet by the water and if you know about its resort past it feels like a weird ghost town but in beach form.
