Why am I not surprised. I just wonder what the decor will be - and transportation? Most likely ferry service to the mainland, or you could swim your way off (it's actually not that far.) This sounds so Trumped up!

Trumped up or not, this is definitely making my bucket list! Color me excited. I am going to revel in every overblown, over-commercialized bit of it, thank you very much.
