Now and then...WILLY???

Really enjoyed reading the previous "Now and then" and as always when I read descriptions of Culebra as it is now I'm totally amazed.
Taxis?? Buses and jewelry stores??? Not in "our" Culebra!

Never will I forget the incredible beauty of Flamenco when my friend and I awoke in a borrowed tent (from one of the local policemen that we met on the ferry ) our first morning in our paradise.Went to Culebra with intentions of staying 4 days...stayed a year!!!!
Back in 1988-89 there were no tourists, 2 grocery stores and a handfull of bars (mmm still dream of Chuck's pizza slices...)
BUT anyway, get me started and I go on forever....
So my main question: Willy?? WILLY!!!???? Is that you??? My old "boss", "landlord" and friend???
Made any chimichangas lately???

LOL, jeanette!!!!

Jeanette...from Sweden? If this is you...wow! It's been such a long time. How have you been? What are you up to? It's 'terrible good' to hear from you :-).

Heey!
Sure enough, it's me!!
Wow, if you could see my smile!!!!
Nothing like remenicing (hrm...?!) and thinking about "the good old days"... right!!!

HOW ARE YOU??? Dearest Willy?? Where are you?

Well, lots of water has passed under the bridge...
I live in Rhode Island with my family (3 awesome kids ). I manage an Irish pub where (of course) everyone always think I'm Irish. I've lived in NE since I left Culebra after Hugo.
I've been here in RI since 1999 and really like it. (wasn't Lynn from Newport??)
I really enjoyed reading your and Doug's postings because everytime I check out this site I get chocked at the luxuries that are mentioned. WHAT???!! People don't walk anymore??
Actual real camping year around at Flamenco?
Buses that take you to where you want to go?? What happened to horses??

Cool that Walter's still there! I've checked out his site and his beautiful photos. What ever happened to Marina??

You must know that Annicka passed away, right? Last i heard Nestor was still in Sweden, but that was probably 10 yrs ago or so...
Strange where life takes you.

DO take care, where ever you are and what ever you do!!!!!

love , Jeanette!!!!

It is posts like yours that make me feel all the work (maintaining this forum) is well worth it :)

Enjoy Culebra!

Oh Jeanette...yes, I did know about Annicka. Didn't want to mention it on the forum, so I sent you a message to the e-mail you have registered on this sight, but it didn't go through (old?).
Not sure if you caught it, but in my previous post I wrote 'terrible good' because I remembered that Annick would always say "terrible __" instead of 'terribly __'. I always found that cute.
Anyway, sounds like you're happy and doing well. That's great!
I'd love it if you e-mailed me to continue reminiscing.

Later,
W.
