Congrats and good luck with the last ones!
I used one of the hidden islands I still have (have not, of course, found an underwater mermaid since the game crashed) to plant a pool and hold a pool party and nab the gift/feast/pool etc party badge. I still find it strange that I cannot hold a pool party on a pool community lot. I have a photo booth on the premises for those two badges and need a couple more stays at a resort. Then I can decide if I want to try to run one in this game to finish off (except Who Keeps Sending) the IP badges. And summer's rolling in so I can try again to get someone sunburned - my sims only seem to get tan.
