No More Gullible Traveler Here (HA!)

[LissafromSJ]

Thank you Joel110! And to everyone else who responded to my question about whether or not the picture of the plane landing over the beach in St. Maarten is real, my husband finally admitted that "he stands corrected".
Yes, after a highly detailed (he actually found his glasses to get a clearer picture) examination of the website, he had two things to say to me. 1. Yes, he apparently was wrong and the photo is unreal (although real!), and 2. As much as he tried, it is impossible to get those thumbnail photos of the uh, well-tanned women to enlarge. Even though I believe he spent way more effort on that than was necessary, I won the bet so I'm happy.
Yes, not only do I get dinner out tonight, but he watched the entire DVD of the Disney Cruise with me - AGAIN! Ha. That'll teach him not to believe me!
Thanks again all, and I can't wait to show him Joel's new video that I just watched - it is truly awesome. (Hopefully I won't be too full from dinner!!) Melissa

You might not have to download it again. If you use MS Internet explorer you can go to Tools -> Internet Options... off of the menu. From the "General" tab you can click on the "Settings..." button in the middle section of the form (and of the right side). Now click on the "View Files..." button. This will bring up a Windows Explorer window of your temporary internet files.

If you scroll to the right you will eventually find a column heading called "Size". When you click it it will sort the file by size (either assending or descending - click it again to change the order - you probably want descending - biggest files first). Now go back to the left where you can see the file names. -OR- you can do a search from here looking for all files and type in KLM_747 in the box that asks for "All or part of the file name" (Older versions of the search might require you to type in KLM_747*)

Look for the "KLM_747" files (one says KLM_747_takeoff.wmv and the other KLM_747_Landing.wmv). Highlight the files and drag it to your desktop to save them.

Hope this helps.

Now here's how to make those well tanned ladies photos a little easier to see...

The 747 actually flies over a bar and public beach in St. Maartin. It is called Sunset Beach Bar in St. Maarteen. Apparently the fun begins after sunset when the kids are no longer playing in the sand. The bar actually sounds like a lot of fun. ..... 10 years ago for me. I think I am too old for all that now. Although it may be very loud it might be a neat place to visit just to say you went there.... www.sunsetbeachbar.com

take care.
