Wow, impressive as to how fast some of you responded, this is excellent, thank you all. And of course, you can imagine that I was expecting this kind of negative responses and it is for this very reason, that I offered an anonymous AOL email address which was already used by 5 of you to send me different opinions than most so far on this board, and evidently they felt more comfortable emailing me directly. Thank you for the emails too.
Now I will try to address every comment as frankly, sincerely as I can, and let the 'haters' be as they be.
> klcman: "true" The grammar is kind of bad, je suis francais (I'm french-canadian, wow you must really hate me now), and many of my sentences I formulate in french and may come across backwards, I apologize for that. As far as 'hedge fund... blabla...', evidently you don't know everything about investing/funding/banking instruments etc. and hedge fund do 'as they please', but banking is not the point of this discussion, so for your sake just go with the belief that this is completely fictitious and let this be just for the sake of conversation if it makes it easier for you, and the project in Baja was abandoned for a few reasons but the main one being that a new anti-casino grass roots initiative is already preparing itself for solid opposition to casinos for the 2006 Mexican election. The investor group decided to look at Belize and/or the Ambergris Caye for the project
>Windjammer: - No, we don't want to destroy the charm of Ambergris, far from it, we want to make the forest and its treasures accessible, but we want to keep it 100% virgin and untouched, hence the 'suspended monorail'. We were thinking about an area that we have surveyed close to the 'Mexico Rocks' and the inland lagoon (I think maybe 11 miles or so from SP). The "Disney" monorail analogy was only used to help visualizing a completely clean and harmless way of transportation, imagine a forest trail without having one visitor ever touching the virgin ground. Imagine a silent floating gondola entering the thick jungle at tree height, imagine the treat for bird watchers, a gondola that would make you feel like you are in a hot air balloon basket floating sideways through the trees into the flora and around the lagoon.... see... there is no popcorn in this picture... This would be an instant tourist hit, an incredible and unique eco tour, taking a 'tram' into the Mayan Jungle. I apologize for the use of such a terrible word as "Disney", THERE IS NO DISNEY CONCEPT HERE 'NOOOOOOOOOOOO", PLEASE DELETE THIS PICTURE FROM THE SCREEN, really did not mean to scare anyone.
>seashell: Trust me I been there a couple of ways. We even took a trip just to take aerial footage of the complete area, and apparently, there is a break in the reef close to 'Mexican Rocks' which could make the area we're thinking of accessible for the cruise ships, so that they could anchor outside the reef and ferry in their passengers. Why can't you visualize a 300 room complex? Is it because you visualize the 'physical' size to be too big? It's only 3 long 2-storey buildings (26 ft height), similar to any Best Western you see along the US highways. With superb eco-friendly design, the buildings would be nestled beautifully into the landscape and almost disappear into the jungle.
As far as golf course, in addition to add a major attraction to Ambergris, a second course in the area would only make it that much more interesting for any local or visiting golfers... You probably don't golf, the variety of a few courses would not hurt the business trust me. The course would be a 'tropical link course' build as much as possible along and parallel to the beach line, and would require a limited amount of land clearing.
> Jesse: Marty is not mad at me using his bandwidth... trust me...
>lawcucui: The monorail would have generator back up and would instantly become an incredible attraction for all tourist venues.
A few closing points. I'm shock that no one said anything about what it would do for not only Ambegris economy, but for the entire country's economy, the job creation, the improvement to the infrastructure, the creation of another airport at the old landing strip, not one of you is thinking about the unemployment.... Perhaps many of you are completely turned off by the idea, but : When the casino law came into effect, the hope was that it would bring in tourists and money, well add a golf course and a Mayan Jungle one of a kind tour suddenly you'll have a attraction that will rival the Blue Hole in popularity...
Ambergriss is the tip of the Mexican Riviera. No one can change that. Imagine the future, imagine opening the road all the way to Cancun, can you imagine what such a road would mean to all your businesses. With the kind of income a world class casino brings in, a lot is possible with time. I'm sure many don't want this, many cannot even consider such a concept, and probably want to protect their retirement investment and do not want to create ripples and/or don't think it can be done. But this is bigger than that, think about the evolution of a country and its people... Belize & Ambergris could use the work... Look at Ambergris in 1990, look at Ambergris now... that was only a 15 years span... you can't stop the future... OK, let's see if all I get is another beating, or if we actually start talking openly about Pros & Cons... Thank you to all in advance.
