Sorobon Nudist resort in Bonaire will no long be nudist

The world wide recession has effected nudist resorts as well as textile hotels. Sorobon is the latest nudist resort that is converting over to being a textile hotel.
I've always heard good things about how it was run, so we are sad to hear it will no longer be nudist. It was one of the few nudist resorts in the Caribbean that did not gouge nudists by being ridiculously overpriced. We always recommended it.

From their site:

"Sorobon Beach Resort has always been a naturist resort. As of December 15th 2010 this will no longer be the case. We will open our doors to the general public and nudism will no longer be allowed.

I think part of the reason they are going textile is I have found American and Canadian nudists are vacationing more and more ONLY in our 2 countries. They are tired of sending their money to foreign countries where none of it benefits the US or Canada. Since the US and Canada are the world's largest trading partners, anything benefiting one country helps the other.

I know we have so many guests that booked a week with us in the summer or fall (it's tropical storm and hurricane season in the Caribbean, Florida, and Mexico in the summer and fall so nudists never go to those places anyway as why vacation in the rain). And then they booked a week in the Caribbean or Mexico in the spring. Now they are staying with us year round and skipping those overpriced places.

Prior to the recession, people would brag about how much they overpaid to vacation in Mexico and the Caribbean at non nudist owned naked resorts. Not any more. Good value is the new luxury.

And luckily for nudists, The Terra Cotta Inn has ALWAYS been considered one of the best value nudist resort vacation in the world. MSNBC in November picked us as one of the best values in the US. That's one of the many reasons we are the most popular nude sunbathing resort in the western US.

Never been to a clothing optional resort before? No problem. We're the most mainstream nudist resort in the US and are perfect for couples trying topless or nude sunbathing for the first time!

We hope to see you soon in sunny Palm Springs!

Just 2 rooms left at Terra Cotta Inn this weekend October 1 and 2

Due to a last minute cancellation. We have 1 room available this weekend on Friday and Sat nights, Oct 1 & 2 and one room available for just Saturday night Oct 2.

In October, we rarely just have weekends available as it prime vacation season. Nudists don't go to the Caribbean, Mexico, or Florida in October and November since it's the height of tropical storm/hurricane season unless they like rain. Which means everyone from around the world wants to stay here and take a vacation.

For instance we are 100% full tonight on a Tuesday Sept 28th.

So, this is your lucky weekend.

The weather has been fantastic. About 100F and nice and sunny.

Give us a call at 800-786-6938 if you want a fun time here this weekend in sunny Palm Springs!

We also have rooms available midweek on Sunday thru Thurs in October, so think about getting away midweek too.

Vote Naked Campaign in Illinois

For those of you who don't know, Mary Clare and I are from Chicago, Illinois. We met our freshman year of college at University of Illinois, Champaign.

Yesterday, I posted how the Indiana Court of Appeals just refused to grant women's breasts the same protection under the law as men's breasts. Even though there is already precedent in New York.

Today I learned about this great you tube video, Vote naked Illinois. I say it in a Huffington Post story. Here it is:

"Illinois Votes Naked: Nude Campaign Spreads News About Changes To Absentee Voting Law (VIDEO)

...The Equality Illinois Education Project teamed up with Rock the Vote and Roosevelt University for an eye-catching campaign that aims to get out the vote. "Vote Naked Illinois" wants to make people aware of the fact that this year, they don't need pants to make a difference in state government.

This summer, Gov. Pat Quinn signed a law that required early voting in the "high traffic" areas near Illinois universities, Illinois Statehouse News reports. This means registered voters can submit absentee ballots as early as Sept. 23, and turn in their ballots at early voting locations between Oct. 11 and Oct. 28.

The move is seemingly an effort to attract more young voters...

One effective campaign tool? Nudity. The "Vote Naked Illinois" folks made this informative video about the changes to the state's early voting law: (Hat tip to Gapers Block for bringing this gem to our attention!)"

Click here for the full Huffington Post story

What a fun, creative way to convince people to vote and to tell people in Illinois that they can vote by mail. My hat and everything else is off for them.

Indiana Court of Appeals rules women's breasts do not have equal protection- Shame on them!

The Indiana Court of Appeals just made a terrible decision. They ruled that a women's bare breasts do NOT have equal protection under the US Constitution. Of course this is just the opposite of how the NY Supreme court ruled in 1992 where a judge in NY said "One of the most important purposes to be served by the equal protection clause is to ensure that 'public sensibilities' grounded in prejudice and unexamined sterotypes do not become enshrined as part of the official policy of government."

Here's the story:

"A 16-year-old girl accused of exposing her breasts on an Indianapolis street can’t argue that the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution gives her the freedom to do it.

The Indiana Court of Appeals ruled Thursday against the girl’s claim that Indiana’s nudity law violated the 14th Amendment’s equal protection clause...

The girl’s attorney said Indiana’s nudity law was unfair because it covers the nipples of women, but not men.

The appeals court says the citizens of Indiana have spoken on the issue through their elected representatives.

Click here for the full story

The court saying the citizens of Indiana have spoken on this issue through their elected representatives is probably the WORST cop out excuse that justices can ever give.

Listen to these other cop out judicial excuses.

In 1857. in the Dred Scott case US Supreme Court ruled Blacks were not citizens and congress did not have the right to ban slavery. Bet the Indiana justices would agree here.

In 1896, Plessy v. Ferguson US Supreme Court upheld repressive Jim Crow laws in the south.

Now here are some famous brave decisions that went against a lot of public opinion.

1954 Brown V. Board of Education of Topeka overturned racial segregation in schools.

1925 Scopes Monkey trial. TN Supreme court overturned lower courts rulings that it was illegal to teach evolution.

It's a sad day in Indiana to find their justices so bigoted against women.

Remember, up until the 1930's, men could be arrested on beaches in the US for being shirtless. Even in the early 1960's men could be arrested in Central Park NY for being shirtless. Those were bad laws that have mostly just been ignored as many are still on the books. The judges in Indiana could have pushed forward women's rights in this case, instead, they treat women like 2nd class citizens.

Now Americans should have known this would be the decision as the here are some "good" Indiana laws still on the books that should be enforced just like the law against this women.

1. Bathing is prohibited during the winter.
2. Citizens are not allowed to attend a movie house or theater nor ride in a public streetcar within at least four hours after eating garlic.
3. Monkey's are forbidden to smoke cigarettes in South Bend.

It is good to know that the smart justices of Indiana have not overturned these laws. After all we don't want Indiana citizens needlessly wasting water in the winter by taking baths.

Truth in Advertising and Lifestyle Resorts

The Terra Cotta Inn is the most mainstream clothing optional resort and spa in the US. We are perfect for couples trying topless or nude sunbathing for the first time.

In this recession, many nudist resorts are struggling. Some have even converted over to being Lifestyles resorts which are places for people meeting up to swap partners for sex. Some nudist resorts have booked lifestyles weekends.

Here at Terra Cotta Inn, we are proud to not have to go down the road of being just a weekend getaway for people wanting to swap partners for sex. We are a nude sunbathing resort. We refer sex groups elsewhere.

There are NO SECRETS in the nudist industry if you own a nudist resort and talk to your guests. You will always know what other nude businesses are doing if they book lifestyles groups because they piss off nudists and us nudist owners will hear about it or will be sent information about lifestyles parties at other places.

For instance here's a party I just got information about.

"Sept. 18. Swingers VIP White Party. Hosted by SDC and Extreme Lifestyle Events. 9pm-2am. Paradise Lakes Resort. Club Reveal. 2001 Brinson Rd. Lutz, FL 33558.
Click here to see the ad

A common theme for many so called "nudist resorts" especially in Mexico and the Caribbean is Lifestyles takeovers, where a sex group books some rooms at resort, but the resort still books other people during that time period without telling them there is a lifestyles group there.

My advice is ALWAYS ask before booking a nudist resort if there will be a lifestyles group there when you are vacationing at the place. People work very hard for their vacations, and nothing is worse than innocently booking a place and finding out it is not as advertised.

Or only book nudist resorts like ours that refuse to book Lifestyles groups.

So, ask first before booking so your vacation is not ruined.

Vote Please by Wed 9/15 for Terra Cotta Inn in Palm Springs Life Magazine's Best of the Best Contest

Palm Springs Life Magazine is again holding their annual Best of The Best
Contest. I just learned about it today. I would love to get your support by voting
for The Terra Cotta Inn as the best boutique hotel this year again.

This is the link to the voting page:
http://www.palmspringslife.com/Palm-Springs-Life/Desert-Guide/June-2010/2010-Best-of-the-Best/

FOLLOW THE Step number 3 instructions on how to vote. Sadly their instructions are
not the easiest to understand.

I really appreciate this! Last year enough people voted that we were picked as
one of the 3 BEST small resorts in all Palm Springs. I hope we are picked again.

It is important that people know that nudist resorts are nice places. So thank
you for your votes.

Also in this economy being named as one of the 3 best small resorts helps our
business. And anything that helps our business, benefits all our guests. We have
kept our rates the same for the last 4 years due to our high occupancy rate. And
we are constantly reinvesting lots of money into making our resort the best
value nudist resort in the whole US. (MSNBC picked us as the best value in NOV).

We were the FIRST of all hotels in Palm Springs to upgrade to a salt water pool and
jacuzzi. We upgraded out poolside cooling system last year so that it is now the most powerful poolside system of ALL hotels in Palm Springs. Last Christmas, we installed 32 inch Sony Flat Screen TV's. All of our fruit is still restaurant grade fruit which means it's ripe and fantastic tasting. That's why you love our strawberries. Restaurant grade fruit is about 3 times the price of grocery store fruit. We have not compromised quality for our guests in this recession.

So please vote for us again this year. We really appreciate it.

Thanks so much,

Tom

Thanksgiving vacation time will be here before you know it - Come to Terra Cotta Inn, sunny Palm Springs, CA for a Fun, FREE, Thanksgiving Feast

The Thanksgiving holiday will be here before you know it. This was just brought to my attention by a couple taking advantage of the American Airlines airfare sale that ends this Wednesday September 15th. They booked our resort for the Thanksgiving holiday week. They were here a few years ago for our Thanksgiving feast and can't wait to get back.

And we do have a fantastic Thanksgiving holiday feast. One turkey is grilled on our Weber grill. It tastes heavenly. The other turkey is traditionally cooked in our oven.

We have all your favorite home made side dishes like stuffing, cranberry sauce, corn relish, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes and gravy,broccoli and cauliflower with cheese sauce, barbecue bacon baked beans. rolls, salad, dessert pie buffet of assorted fruit pies and of course pumpkin pie and whipped cream. And the food is fabulous as Mary Clare is a fantastic cook. She used to write cookbooks as a profession before it was trendy to write cookbooks.

Do you know what the best thing is about our Thanksgiving feast? It's FREE for all over night guests. And better yet, since it's a naked Thanksgiving feast, you don't have to unloosen your belt after dinner.

The weather is fantastic in Palm Springs that time of year. Traditionally it's in the low 80's F and 100% sunny as Palm Springs is the sunniest city in the United States.

So come join us for your most fun Thanksgiving vacation ever.

Vacation American- The job you save may be your own!

I had an interesting phone call today. A potential guest from Southern California called and asked about what kind of discounts do we have for Saturday night, October 16th. I informed the guest that we were full then, but we discount rooms on Monday to Thursday nights to encourage midweek stays. The potential guest told me, "we just got back from St. Martin's. We dropped over $12,000 in 2 weeks and are trying to save. We're out of vacation days." Wow, they could have stayed here at The Terra Cotta Inn, Palm Springs, California for almost 2 months for that kind of money.

That got me thinking. Why do so many nudists go overseas and pay for overpriced vacations and not support American or Canadian nudist resorts? America has great nudist resorts. We have many couples from all over the US and Canada vacation with us. Yet, many Americans look upon American nudist resorts as only Saturday night getaways, not vacation destinations. They waste their vacation dollars in Mexico and the Caribbean instead.

Well, I say it's time to start supporting American and Canadian businesses. Especially nudist businesses. According to a USA Today article in March, 2010, the US Bureau of Labor Statistics report 20% of hotel workers have have been laid off in this recession. And I bet even more since that article came out.

Vacationing in the US and Canada is one way you can reinvest money in our countries. The US and Canada are so closely tied economically. We are the worlds largest trading partners. Spending vacation dollars in either country benefits both. It is estimated that for every $100 spent at a local independent business, $68 goes back into the local economies.

When a nudist in the US or Canada vacations in the Caribbean or Mexico especially at a non nudist owned facility NOTHING goes back into promoting nudism. Also NOTHING goes back into supporting the American or Canadian economies. It all goes to foreign governments and employees. It's time to change this!

Here at The Terra Cotta Inn, we're doing OK in this recession as MSNBC reported, we're the best value nudist resort in the western US. Yet, our occupancy rate is still down about 8% from our all time highest occupancy rate in 2008. And we're working harder than ever to stay full. Since we reinvest more money into our resort proportionally than any other nudist resort, we always like a high occupancy rate, so we can keep our rates at great value and improvements high.

I just came across this good article in Sign On San Diego about buying American:

Starting Labor Day, let's buy American

For too long we have turned our heads and closed our eyes while millions of American jobs have been exported overseas. We can’t wait on government to realize what has happened and fix it.

...while economists and politicians argue about the root causes for the economic meltdown and bicker over solutions to getting America back to work, so many of us are left wondering what we can do to help change the situation.

President Obama recently said that the road to real economic recovery starts with three words – “Made in America.” I believe him. Like so many, I was raised believing that the “Made in America” tag was a symbol of national pride, an imprimatur that meant both loyalty and quality...

I am celebrating this Labor Day by setting out to change that.

More and more people are shopping their conscience by seeking out fair trade coffee, organic lettuce or grass-fed beef. It’s too bad we’re not also checking the label to ensure we are buying American-made products to support the value of putting fellow Americans to work. It’s something that has slipped our collective mindset.

...For too long we have turned our heads and closed our eyes while millions of American jobs have been exported overseas. We can’t wait on government to realize what has happened and fix it. It starts with all of us. We all need to make an effort to become economic patriots.

The only way to rebuild a sustainable middle-class economy is to refocus on American jobs...

...we can do any of this, we have to start taking the time to look for the label ourselves...

...Made in America should start in San Diego, and it should start this Labor Day.

Some jokes about the economy to cheer up everyone

Hi Everyone,

This was sent to me today. I thought it was pretty funny.

The economy is so bad that:

... I got a pre-declined credit card in the mail.

... African television stations are now showing 'Sponsor an American Child' commercials!

... I ordered a burger at McDonald's and the kid behind the counter asked, "Can you afford fries with that?"

... CEO's are now playing miniature golf.

... Exxon-Mobil laid off 25 Congressmen.

... My ATM gave me an IOU!

... A stripper was killed slipping on the pennies her audience showered her with while she danced.

... I met a Mormon polygamist with only one wife.

... I bought a toaster and it came with a free gift... a bank.

... If the bank returns your check marked "Insufficient Funds," you now have to call them and ask if they meant you or them.

... McDonald's is selling the 1/4 ouncers.

... Angelina Jolie adopted a child from America .

... My cousin had an exorcism but couldn't afford to pay for it, so they re-possessed her!

... A truckload of Americans was caught sneaking into Mexico.

... Motel Six can't afford to leave the light on anymore.

... A picture is now only worth 200 words.

... Wall Street has been renamed " Wal-Mart Street ."

... The Treasure Island casino in Las Vegas is now managed by Somali pirates.

... Congress says they are looking into the Bernard Madoff scandal. Oh Great! The guy who made $50 Billion disappear into his pockets is being investigated by the people who make trillions disappear into their pockets!

...And, finally...I heard of someone who was so depressed thinking about the economy, wars, jobs, lack of savings, housing, Social Security, retirement funds, etc. they called the Suicide Hotline and got a call center in Pakistan. When they told them they were suicidal, the hotline got all excited, and asked if they knew how to drive a truck.

Have a fun weekend everyone.

Labor Day News- Only 57% of Americans are taking all of their earned vacation days off of work - Time for a Nakation

ABCnews reported that Americans are not taking enough vacation time off of work. They report that although Americans just about have the least amount of vacation time in the whole world, just 13 days compared to for example Italy with 42 days off, Spain 40, France with 37 days and Germany with 35, only 57% of Americans are taking all of their vacation days off of work.

The article states the reason American's don't take more vacation time off of work is they are afraid of losing their jobs.

But, if you read articles about Americans not having much vacation time, you will see 10 years ago experts were saying the same thing people are afraid for their jobs, I say it's a different reason Americans don't take more vacation time. It's because they haven't taken a nakation yet.

What's a nakation? It's a trade marked word from the American Association for Nude Recreation. It's a play on the words naked and vacation. Thus nakation.

The French, Italians, Germans, and Spanish all LOVE to take vacations at nudist resorts and nude beaches. They can't wait for their naked vacations. It is estimated that 1 in 3 Germans vacation at a nudist resort or nude beach each year.

And I know all American nude vacationers love their nude vacations too. They can't wait to go to their favorite nudist resorts or try new nude places. They all wish they had more vacation time off of work.

And nudist resort vacation in America are a fantastic value as MSNBC reported last November.

I say Americans don't take their full vacation time off of work because they're bored with their present vacations where they have to wear clothes. They're tired of big impersonal overpriced chain hotels, where they just sit around poolside being charged $10 to $15 for a weak cocktail or cheap glass of wine. If you go to one of these big boring chain hotels all you see poolside is everyone on their blackberries. You don't see lots of smiles or hear laughter except for the little kids running around screaming at the top of their lungs. Adults aren't having fun so they just don't use all their vacation time.

In a recent survey Career Builders found 79% of people spent considerable about of time on their pda's while on vacation (the other 21% must have been at a nude beach or nudist resort).

So, in my opinion, the reason Americans don't use all their vacation time is they've find many vacations boring and big hotels overpriced, so they just don't go. And they don't want to hang out at home because then they have to clean the garage, basement, attic, etc. So they just work.

Here's the story from ABCnews:

Americans Afraid to Take Full Vacations
Many Workers Worry About Losing Jobs in Bad Economy, Leaving Vacation Days Unused

...These days Americans are taking shorter trips -- mostly extended weekends -- and leaving a large chunk of their paid vacation days unused.

Americans already have fewer paid vacation days than their European counterparts, but now comes news that only 57 percent of people here are taking all of their vacation time.

"People are fearful for their jobs. They want to stay there and work but they also need the money," said John Wright, a senior vice president at the research firm Ipsos. "They don't want to miss out on anything at work because they don't want to fall behind or lose their job or something like that."...

Italy has the most vacation days, with the average worker there getting 42 paid days off, according to the World Tourism Organization. Next was France with 37 days, Germany with 35, Brazil at 34, the United Kingdom at 28, Canada with 26 and Korea and Japan both with 25. The United States was near the bottom of the list with the average worker getting 13 days off.

But even with those 13 days off, only 57 percent of Americans take them all. Eighty-nine percent of the French use all of their days off.

Kathleen E. Christensen, the founder of the Workplace, Work Force and Working Families program at the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation and author of the book "Workplace Flexibility: Realigning 20th-Century Jobs for a 21st-Century Workforce," says a lot of this is cultural...

"Certainly the United States economy has been suffering over the last several years. People are afraid of losing their jobs," she said. "There's the old adage: out of sight, out of mind."...

"I think people have to be not too short sighted when it comes to vacation," she said. People do have to take a break. People are typically more effective if they are more engaged in their work."

Wright noted that younger workers in America are more likely to use their full time off than older ones. And how about the boss? They are more likely to have plenty of days leftover at the end of the year."

Do you have ideas for fun, big events to promote nude recreation?

AANR has a new President, Susan Weaver. She's a great person and I look forward to nude recreation growing under her guidance.

I am on the AANR West and National PR committees. We are looking for fun PR events that can be staged hopefully nationwide, but it's OK if it's not nation wide as long as it has good and positive PR potential.

The Guinness World record Skinny dip and this Guinness nude roller coaster ride are 2 good fun examples of positive PR events.

I'm asking people, if you have ideas, let me know. You can leave comments here. You can personally e-mail me at tom@sunnyfun.com or you can call me at 800-786-6938. Just ask for Tom. I'll be happy to talk.

Here's the story on the Guinness record setting naked roller coaster ride:

"Hair-raising ... naked thrill-seekers on ride

The big stripper

MORE than 100 thrill-seekers rode a roller coaster naked, smashing the world record.

The 102 butt-naked adrenaline junkies let it all hang out as they took on the swerves and loops of the fairground ride to raise £22,000 for breast cancer research...

Senior Fundraising Manager at Bosom Pals, Barbara Warner said: "It takes a lot of nerve to take off all your clothes in front of 102 complete strangers, plus the world's media - so we would like to say a massive thank you to everyone who was brave enough to bare all and raise such a huge amount of cash more than £22,000 - for our vitally important cause."
