I tried this in Local, but had no responses.

It looks like I will be going down to Bonaire in Sept. I was wondering if anyone would like me to bring down some books or other stuff. Let me know titles and/or authors. I can get the books in good condition from local used book stores for a song. I would prefer to get paperbacks as they weigh less. I may ship them down air freight, or via Rocargo (sp.?) to Jake (if that is OK), if the weight is more than a few lbs. Let me know if there are other things that I can take/send down.

Sending small packages via our AMCAR consolidations is pricey - runs about $6 per package, Linnea. So, we'd prefer folks use alternate means to get stuff to Bonaire instead of going via us.

Jong Bonaire is have a big book sale on Saturday in the Wilhelmina Plein, I believe. Just as a coincidental item...

Hmmmm, not exactly.
Plein would translate 2 square.
A park is a park :-)
