(NAPS)—Malls aren’t the only laces for one-stop-shopping, ravelers in the know have long ijoyed a secret that it’s time to lare—the bargain of all-inclusive ications. Take a luxurious resort, id all the food, drink, entertain- lent and activities you could pos hly pack into a vacation and you 3t an all-inclusive. In Mexico, lese ever-popular resorts are ore in demand than ever be- luse of all the value-added perks, wording to Pleasant Mexico Hol- lays, one of the most popular avel companies to Mexico. Just like a cruise ship on land, lere’s never a dull moment—you ick and unpack once and there’s imething for everybody The dif- •rence is the cost. Most all-inclu- ve vacations cost less than half '■ a cruise vacation. So basking in le sun on the Mexican Riviera or cploring the ancient Mayan iins becomes even more afford- ')le with the “one-stop-shopping 'uise on land.” Pleasant Mexico Holidays just ided new all-inclusive hotels in 'le Cancun area: five Palace esorts and the Royal Maeva layacar in Playa del Carmen, he all-inclusive program at these 'pscale resorts, for example, elude all meals with a la carte loices, a selection of wines and 'emium brands served at the irs, watersports, family-oriented itivities, a children’s club, night- shows, tours to nearby attrac- bns.

THE JARMONS’ PINEAPPLE THE JARMONS The next total solar eclipse II take place on August 11, 99. Mr. and Mrs. Joe and Mary Jarmon of 2219 Fitzgerald Avenue have proof that a pineapple will grow in Durham — if it’s given loving care and protected from our winter weather. Approximately two years ago, the Jarmons sliced off the top portion of a pineapple they bought at the grocery store. They planted and nurtured it — thinking it would probably make a pretty plant. It did. During the warm months, the plant was left outside and during colder months, it was brought inside and placed in a picture window on the south side of their home. The plant grew larger and larger. To their surprise and delight, one day they discovered a little pineapple forming in tdp of the plant. With somewhat amazement and disbelief at first, they watched the little pineapple slowly grow into a beautiful, exotic. full-size fruit. When this picture was made last month, the pineapple was ripe and al most ready to be cut. Mr. and Mrs. Jarmon admired the plant with pride and have enjoyed showing it off to neighbors and friends. When its fruit becanie fully ripe and just before being picked, here is a picture for all to see the pineapple that grew in Durham! Sorry, though mouths may water, there’s no tasting of this one for lovers of pineapple....The Jarmons ate it the last week of March. They shared a taste with a neighbor. At this point, the plant continues to grow. The Jarmons are interested in seeing what happens next season'.
