Culebra Rocks

New Favorite Place: Culebra.

Tiny island of only 2000 locals off the coast of Puerto Rico. Not a single commercial chain business exists, beaches that look like Sandals commercials (without the cheesy music or fakey viagra ad couples), and a plague of mosquitoes. Finally living up to my West Hollywood residencey, the only cars are Jeep Wranglers and I captain'ed one proudly all week. But the best transportation is how you get there.

Other than flying shotgun with Amelia Earhart, it is likely the smallest plane any jews have ever been on – basically a minivan with wings.

Shockingly, we weren't the only Hollywood'ers on the island though - Jake Gyllenhall was the pilot. Can't believe he had time to fit this in during awards season. The tickets are hand written spell your name wrong. In an homage to Dr. Chandler Bong, I was Michael Glabo and I think Melissa Rappaport was "Melissa Rappacho"

They ask how much you weigh and each of the 3 rows of seats has its own door to enter and exit. I now have recommitted myself to the goal of owning a plane. Maybe in time for Christmas 2006.

I wrote a full breakdown of contacts/phone numbers/suggestions/where to find it's for your own Snoopy the dog-ish flight and after flight to Culebra. Warning: It's Really long and may take a minute to load - but worth it.
