Is it possible to have that section private to registered members only?

Why ? What reasoning for doing so ... the way it is has provided lots of valuable info for those in the beginning stages of thinking about a Desire vacation.

Mainly for privacy reasons.
We have told a number of vanilla friends but nothing too specific.
If we post graphic details, it can be a bit embarrassing, and we're rather hesitant to do so in the public domain.
If we cannot post graphic details, it would be like a regular TripAdvisor review.
I think if you're researching the resort, TripAdvisor reviews are a good first step, then onto more specific details here.
Thanks

Which is why I have chosen to keep the forums trip reports open to all - please read thru some of them - many of them are fairly explicit(at least more so than you would be allowed to post on TripAdvisor - lol) When tentative newbies are ready for more info/questions they usually join the forums and can post in the members only areas for specific and very explicit info.

Unless you publish your real names or specific info(highly discouraged) that could identify you to friends in the trip report, I don't see that there are really any privacy concerns as witnessed by the hundreds of existing trip reports by others. If you are still not comfortable then just don't post a trip report ;)

Start your trip report with departure from a different airport than you really used.
Change the dates a little so it doesn't exactly match up to your trip dates.
Just change things enough to throw off your nosy mother-in-law.........and, if you're really that worried about it, DO NOT FORGET to clear your computer history.......LOL

Life is good!
DA

Or skip the whole airport part of the trip report entirely. Let's be bluntly honest, zero point zero percent of people reading trip reports here are doing so to get details about the trip down :lol:

Well - we must be 1%-ers.... :) I logged onto this site to figure out which airport is closest to Desire. But I DO know which airports are close to my home.... As it turned out, I couldn't get any information from this site because I needed to know the closest airport in order to create an account here - so I had to use a map. Anyway - here we are and ready to read...
