I was just wondering if anyone else the all-inclusives walking around with large groups of people that remind me of a herd of cattle. I saw a few weeks ago about fifty people walking down the beach in two by two formation and noticed that none of them would even look over in the direction of the shops. One person began talking to one of the shop owners and three of the others in the group began crowding around her and she quickly stopped talking or even looking in his direction. Although I have never been to the orientation I have have heard many people tell me about the things they tell their guests but this scene seemed to me as if they had brainwashed these people. What people in their right mind would let someone else tell them who they can talk to and where they can go? I still haven't decided whether the scene was comical or sad. A question I would like to pose to this group is do you think this practice would be allowed in the U.S. or Europe? My personal feeling is that the all-inclusives are a major detriment to the island.
