Default See short movies of Aruba resorts

I have uploaded 25 movies on 23 websites for your viewing pleasure of many resorts in Aruba and the Divi links golf course construction. I did not get all the resorts (this time). Please understand the websites are FREE sites and therefore controlled by bandwidth. If it goes over the allowed time, it shuts down for an hour, so you will receive server/HTML errors when you try to download a movie to watch. Also, because of a 5 meg limit at each site, the movies are a class B,the colors are a little washed out and picture is not as sharp. I hope you will enjoy them just the same.

Each of the 23 websites contains a link to the other sites and movies so you may be able to download a few at one time, before that site you went to becomes overloaded.

Again, when I post this, I can guarantee they will be overloaded quickly and it may take you a few days to get to see the ones you want or all of them.

Go to one or more of these sites:

I'm not able to view any of them. Am I doing something wrong?

I can't get them either.

Are we both doing something wrong?

I know they are busy, but I just went to the dividivi12000 site and right clicked on the costa linda movie and left clicked on the save target as and then downloaded it to my desktop for viewing. No problem. Works good.

glitter, i too had a problem until i actually read jim's directions (who ever said it was only men who don't read directions?) if you right click on the site instead of left click it gives you the opportunity to save and view the site.

Since many of you can not get on to these "free sites" (you get what you pay for), all any of you have to do is type in www.aruba.tv/. You can see hotels, restaurants, attractions etc, etc.
Simple solutions for simple people like me!!!

One by one I'm able to watch these movies. I just watched the Wydham one. I liked your response about the "view" getting better. It looks like the Wydham would be a good place to stay if you have children who are really in to arcade games. They have a pretty good sized arcade room.

Thanks for taking the time to tape all the resorts!

Aruba Joe--What's your point? I let your first comment go, but now I'm going to say something. If you are looking for some trouble, go to the other Bboard. If you don't want to look at the movies on the free site, then don't. It's your choice. Or, YOU can pay for 23 sites and I will gladly put the movies there to benefit others. So put your money where your big mouth is or shut it! The old saying is if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all. If you want to have me chasing all your posts with negativity, I can do that. Now hush little boy or I'll be all over you and you WILL regret it!!

Jim, I wish we could find someone with greater bandwidth to give you some free hosting. I have only ever been able to see one video from the Tam. It was so nice to see the place again, especially because it had a wider beach and I was wondering what it looked like.

Gee, I hope all their efforts didn't wash out to sea after Ivan.
