Beerman as you know beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Is it a flower, or a creature? I know it's something beautiful but what? Or do I even want to know? I'm hoping it's an island caterpillar which from the perspective of the camera is enlarged to look like a snake? <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />

Pat, it's a frangipani caterpillar, bigg'in!

Tom, this one's for you! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" /> Taken by the smoothie stand you know where!

Wow, looked like some exotic stalk. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" /> Must get new glasses.

You twisted my arm Beerman. This is for you, Aloha
pre-hurricane.

I remember that one sign ended up down at Club O. I wondered whether someone took it back down to them, or if it ended up a souvenier on someone's wall?

Maybe it's hanging on Aloha's wall? Beerman might be able to tell us.

Would be interested to know.

We actually built a p�tanque court at home - to the exact specifications <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" /> Since I lost my husband, it hasn't been used (sadly), so you're invited to come play <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/circle.gif" alt="" />

Wow what an interesting twist to this interesting thread. My French friend is a doctor in Augusta, GA, and he also built an official court in his yard. That was where I was introduced to the game.

I know this question has been asked and answered before, but, How do I post a photo?

The picture has to already be online. You use the Image tool under the Instant TTOL Code. That is how you link the picture to TTOL.

Those are some very nice pictures, all.
Thanks for sharing
Currently having problems transferring
pictures from PC to Macbook so I'll
have to owe you

Trying to be the man my dog thinks I am

Grand Case beach from a beach front penthouse which we were, unfortunately, visiting.

Took this one two years ago while staying on Orient Beach. View from our studio.

Looks from Bruno's Bungalow ! Is it ?

I play Petanque in my home in Spain but couldn't imagine putting those balls in my suitcase

Yes, that was taken from Paradise Bungalows.

There is a court at the new Bikini Beach. I don't know whether it is being used during the day, but there were quite a few players on Friday nights during this past February, when we were there.

We have 2 sets that have cases. We put one set in each suitcase. It's the one of the main reasons we have to check our luggage. We have to be very careful with weight too. And we get a nice note from TSA each time that they've searched our luggage. (Hey Frank, ya ever seen anything like this? These guys packed CANNONBALLS in their suitcase! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />)

My husband prefers "free form" petanque. He doesn't play on a court, but uses the whole beach and grounds around ClubO. It's not traditional, but he has a lot of fun.

Playing around with Photoshop. This was before the new causeway opened.
