Yup. gotta love that last minute stuff. We need to see if the flights are still available. I was checking the weather for the sixth of January and it doesnt look that hot. hmmm I wonder now.
-
Congratulations Jammy!
it should be a little warmer down there than up here. :D
-
Good for you, and January and the weather is a gamble but no matter what it will be WAY better then here :D
-
Jammy, if things keep going the way they are, we'll be there too!
Zephie & I had planned on Cayo Largo - last minute for the 6th - but he's such a romantic, now he says he wants to go back to Villa Cuba. It's where we got married...
I saw that last minute deal too! $597. 'ya can't beat that!
So I'll keep you posted and we'll have to meet up on the 9th floor for one of those Pina Colada's! :33:

My wife is gonna call and try and get the flight today :) Man I loved that bar on the 9th floor. The only thing was that elevator. It scared the hell out of me :o lol It was the screeching grinding sounds it made going down to the main floor . So ya cross your fingers . IT would be the 6th of January and coming back on the 13th.
:D :cubadreamin:
-
I hope you guys have a great time, and please raise your glasses for us poor sods left back here in the cold. :D
-
Sounds like a great deal. Where did find it...
I am already booked for April but if I could get a deal as good as that one I would go twice!!!!
-
Jammy, I'm with 'ya on the elevator screeches! :1:
-
:dan:
Well thats it! Wife just called and we are booked :1:
Its a First Air charter flight. Anyone been on one yet? Copmments?
-
:b:
THis is the one I was looking for LOL!!!
-
Hey!! I just had an epiphany :) :p
-
Hello Jammy,
You guys in the east get most of the last minute travel "breaks".
The cost of your holiday covered our Transat Club seats (we needed them ..tall and a seven hour flight from Edmonton via Calgary)this past November.
Anyway after this mumbling and grumbling ..give Carlos (the lobby bartender) a big "hug" from his friends in Alberta..on the other hand maybe just a "big hello" (Carlos is a husky fellow).
;)
-
Great "epiphany" Jammy! I think we'll be able to celebrate the real one in Cuba!
Anyway, was at the TA this afternoon and after a bit of wrangling, got them to sort out a price for us.
You see, Zephie is so huge, he can't sit in a normal seat on Air Transat, so we MUST have Club Class, but I can't book that on-line! And the weirdo part of our trip is that we'll be coming back with WestJet - they don't have a Club Class! However, I hear great things about their seats!
Anyway, I'll be going back in the morning to actually book. I wanted to give our TA the time to make sure that this was right!
I'll let you know when I'm all set.
Perhaps by then, BJ will have booked too! :b:
-
Hey,
I just checked and we can't even get a flight out of Halifax on January 6th. So you will have to go without us....but I'm sure you will have fun anyway...I'll just have to wait until April.
-
too bad mcb and too bad BJ . Allrighty then Im having a toast for you people then :D
-
Oh that really is too bad MCB & BJ! I was hoping that we would finally cross paths at VC!
Maybe next time.
and MCB, don't worry about Carlos, being married to a gentle giant myself, I won't have any trouble with passing on the message to "husky" Carlos! :rof:
-
OK. This is it! I've been sitting at my computer for days now, watching for the price to drop one more time, but I can no longer take it! And besides, I'm pretty sure it won't go any lower than it already is!
So I'm off to the TA right now to book! WooHoo!
Zephie's coming with, just to make sure I actually do it today! :rof:
Later...
-
Keep us posted :)
-
Alright Jammy & the Missus, we'll be joining you on the 9th floor the week of the 6th! :mad:
-
Jammy, are you packed yet? Only 5 more days to go...
Zephie & I just packed our suitcases - it doesn't take us long because we're always raring to leave for Cuba. So we know exactly where everything is that we want to take down with us!
Besides, hangin' around the beach for a week doesn't require much in the way of "clothes"! :rof: :rof: :rof:
-
Have a great time you guys!!!!
-
Thanks Lauren! I hope you guys have a great trip too! We'll "dish" with each other when we get back. ok? :rof: :rof:
-
Looking forward to it, "dishing" that is....as well as swapping trip stories
-
I was supposed to pack clothes? :) I was at a family party on New Years and I was pissin everyone off telling them about our trip and what the temp was going to be :) oh and by the way I found some reading glasses at wallmart for 97 cents :D
Man Im having fun How many sleeps Charm? :b:

Hey Charm
Any chance of emailing your friend to see if a villa is available?
Our last room was on top of the main stage last time.

Jammy, I already emailed her my room request over the weekend.
When I get home from work, I'll PM you with her email address...you can ask her for the villa you'd like. ;)

Char, how are you feeling..?

I'm all better now BD, Thanks so much for asking!
I was really sick for about 3 1/2 days, then just mildly irritated for another day or so, then completely back to normal. Go figure!
I'm quite thankful for the short-shelf-life of whatever I had! Now I can get on with getting excited about our trip! :party:
-
That is great to here, and we all hope you guys have a wonderful vacation :)
:s:
-
Thanks Bulldog, you're so sweet!
Maybe we'll plan that group trip yet! Until then...we'll make sure to toast all of you several times throughout the week! :moj:

Please Do Charmaine... We'll do the same for You and Zephie, in a couple of weeks!
Have a great trip!

Thanks Lauren! I hope you and Eric have a fabulous trip too!
We'll "Cuba-Chat" when we all get back! ;)
I'm sure at some point we'll need to, 'cause CWS comes on fast and furious! :roll:
So have a great time in the meantime! :1:
-
Thanks Char, I'll be thing about you while you're away, very jealously, but none the less thinking about you & Zephie. Have a fantastic time.
Can't wait till we're all home again so we can "dish" ;)
