suziehmkr Posted January 9, 2007 #1 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Hello Cruisers! We are fresh back from the Mexican Riviera on the Carnival Pride. I will post a review of our ports in a couple of days. However, I am hoping to catch someone that will be in Cabo in the very near future that can help me. On the walkway near the tender dock, I purchased a beautiful tile that was handpainted with a Carnival ship, etc. We purchased it and they packaged it up for us. However, they didn't tell us that it was still wet. Back on the ship, I took it out of the packaging. I tried to wipe something off of it and smeared the entire tile! I was almost in tears. It was packaged with a space, but if had known it was wet, I would have left it alone. I am looking for someone that is willing to purchase another tile for me. I paid $15 for it. I am willing to pay for a new one, plus postage for anyone that would be so very kind to do this for me. I have been on the boards for a few years, and I am a very trustworthy person. If you can help me, please email me at my yahoo address: inkflamingos@yahoo.com Please put Cruise Critic Cabo in the subject so that I know it isn't spam. I can take a picture of the one that I have so that you know what I mean and I will tell you exactly where to find the vendor. Thank you so much!!

suziehmkr Posted January 23, 2007 Author #3 Share Posted January 23, 2007 Hello Cruisers! Even though I had a very generous offer from a fellow Cruise Critic member, the rain in Cabo kept her from being able to help. I am so grateful that she even tried. If you are sailing soon and think you might want to try to help - please contact me at the email in the first post. THANKS!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ELLIETAM Posted January 23, 2007 #4 Share Posted January 23, 2007 Hi Suziehmkr: We are not going until mid-June, can you wait until then? If so, I will be more than happy to get it and ship it for you. Ellie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luvz2run2000 Posted January 23, 2007 #5 Share Posted January 23, 2007 We'll be there in mid-May if you don't find anyone going sooner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carole47 Posted January 23, 2007 #6 Share Posted January 23, 2007 I purchased one of those tiles 2 years ago in December. Is it the dark blue tiles with various pictures of Cabo and so on. I will be in Cabo on February 11th on the Celebrity Mercury. Send me an email and I will try and help you out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suziehmkr Posted January 24, 2007 Author #7 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Once again - THANK YOU to everyone that has offered to help me out of my little issue. Cruise Critic is wonderful! I have found someone else that is going to try to help me. If you all don't mind, I will keep your information and if for some WILD reason it doesn't work, I would like to ask again. I hope that someday I can help someone else out the same way. I have attached a picture of my ruined tile - since I got several emails asking what it looked like. THANKS!

luvz2run2000 Posted January 24, 2007 #8 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Wow, that's pretty. I can see now why you were so disappointed. Keep me in mind if you still need help in May. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OceanFantasys Posted January 24, 2007 #9 Share Posted January 24, 2007 I will be leaving February 3rd so if you haven't got your tile by then I would also be happy to pick it up for you. Rhonda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suziehmkr Posted January 24, 2007 Author #10 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Wow, that's pretty. I can see now why you were so disappointed. Keep me in mind if you still need help in May. Thank you, I really appreciate that. Imagine my surprise when I went to brush away the little piece of styrofoam... I almost cried as I stared at the paint on my hand! I know it is just a tile, but I loved it when I saw it. ;) He paints them with his fingers! Pretty amazing to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandyToes1978 Posted January 24, 2007 #11 Share Posted January 24, 2007 I wish I would have seen your post before I went! I acutally bought one of those tiles in Maz instead! Only mine doesn't have a ship on it. Mine was still wet too, so I put the blow dryer on it for about 20 minutes.... I hope you get a new tile soon!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
