Response from the owner
Vielen Dank, dass Sie sich für einen großen Bericht, Michelle und Familie. Ich bin so froh, dass sie euch gefallen und freuen uns auf Ihren Besuch! Wie Sie sagten, es ist schön ruhig dort, aber in der Nähe von Aktivitäten. Boa Vista ist anders auf Sal, der viel mehr kommerzialisiert und beschäftigt, aber was natürlich für einige Leute mehr!! Ich hoffe, diese Übersetzung Service ist ok.... Mit freundlichen Grüßen und nochmals vielen Dank Geri

Response from the owner
Merci pour votre avis, et je suis heureux vous avez aimé - je m'excuse pour les chiens d'aboyer. Ce problème a maintenant été résolu. En ce qui concerne la télévision, (comme je l'ai dit), le satellite locaux ne sont pas très bon n'importe où ici et il y a un plat de sattellite en cours d'installation pour nous aujourd'hui. Heureusement, dans le passé, la plupart des personnes préfèrent d'autres loisirs que de regarder la télévision. La prochaine fois, tout sera parfait ! !
