Yes, I have some Hawaiian dollars. Still legal tender, but probably
worth more than face value to collectors.

Need info - Turkey / Dubai etc

We are a family of 4 from the US and would like to take an escorted
tour or cruise this Christmas time frame - for a week to 2 weeks.

We are thinking of maybe:

1. Dubai and surrounding countries
or
2. Turkey and surrounding countries

Can anyone "recommend" any escorted tours in the above countries ?

Any pointers, suggestions would be highly appreciated.

Which time of the year is best to visit these places ?

Thanks in advance,

Kim

Many thanks to those who responded to my request for information about which
Mayan ruins to see near Cancun. Tulum was nearer and was very interestic.
Next time, we will build in several days to visit other sites.

Thanks again.

  Mariner ots cabin position?         


Author: frijoli
Date: Jul 5, 2008 08:09

We booked this cabin,7341, On RC Mariner of the Seas, and I was curious
as to what was next to it. There is a gap in the cabins, and I have a
suspicion this may be storage. I am NOT interested in staying next to
the supply room for the cabin stewards. Anyone know for sure what this is?

You may have already seen this but I had not. It's pretty cool. You can
view ports and ship positions in satellite views.

  Kudos to Holiday Inn

Another hassel with the trip was that the rooms awaiting us at the
Crown Plaza Buckingham Gate were not even close to what we had paid for
in advance. To make a long story short, fourth trip to the Desk we got
something we could accept, although still not what we paid for.
Wednesday Kay sent an e-mail outlining our disappointment.
Yesterday, we got a response depositing to our Priority Club account,
the points equivalent of two additional nights at a Crown Plaza. Sweet.

Boon Frog Pod (Toddler Bath toy holder)

http://www.toddlerscorner.net/boon-frog-pod-toddler-bath-toy-holder/

First, let me say that we bought this product last year before it even
came out. We were on a wait list for almost two months with child
Outfitters. I had been looking for a new bath storage system because
my son thinks the bathtub is the best thing next to Disney Land. So he
always has a bunch of toys in the tub and none of the other storage
systems had worked. When we got it, I was completely stunned by its
size. My first attention was OMG! Am I going to put this GIGANTIC
GREEN FROG up in my bathroom? LOL. But the scoop, rinse, and store
attribute was too appealing so I followed the instructions accurately
and installed it that night.
