Nice aviation pic!  Last month I was on St. Maarten and enjoying sitting at the Sunset Bar & Grill where you can watch the big jets land maybe fifty yards off the beach and it looks almost like you can jump up and smack the landing gear.

It's really fun to watch the "fun seekers" try and hang on to the fence while the big jets wind up...the jet blast is so fierce you see cameras, cell phones, hats and also people getting blown back into the surf.  Lots of videos of that on YouTube.

As far as enjoying "other views"...across the island at Orient Beach and Shell Beach on nearby St. Barths the bikinis were even skimpier...as in not even there!  The problem there was that many of those on the beaches were not the people you want to see naked!  In a couple of cases I was looking for eye bleach!

Once something has been seen, it cannot be unseen!
