gizzigoo Posted June 26, 2008 #5 Share Posted June 26, 2008 HI Lizard, I bet you celebrated tonight! Nothing better than that blue folder! I am jealous as we are leaving on the 2nd of August and sadly :( still no blue folder. And Drelix, the old blue folders don't do it, I think that they just get so sniffed out and handled that they are almost dead by the time the cruise is over. They just have that slight hint of crusing excitement left, none of the new possiblities that the new folders display. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm one happy person doing the happy dance still lol :D Lynda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunshine1220 Posted June 27, 2008 #19 Share Posted June 27, 2008 Hi Lynda, It's so exciting. I've left our blue folder sitting on my desk so I'm always looking at it. I was going through my Bon Appetit magazine that New Caledonia Tourism sent me. I can't wait to taste the pastries, cheese and french wine in Noumea. I booked our cruise online also. I do everything online. The flights, accommodation at The Rocks. You name it. It's just so convenient. Come on August! :D Cheers Christine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oysterfiend Posted June 27, 2008 #20 Share Posted June 27, 2008 What is the accommodation you are staying at at the Rocks? We are staying at Mecure Ultimo (now called Aspen i think?) on the 9th August through Accor and Ibis Darling Harbour (also thru Accor)19th, 20th , and 21st. The Ibis hasn't got all that good reviews on tripadvisor so I am hoping its okay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supposed to be really nice for the night before the cruise. I was telling my other half a few days ago about the Rocky Horror Show and found out how there are two shows on the Saturday but I couldn't convince him. So we'll be going out for dinner and probably walk around Circular Quay that night. Christine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oysterfiend Posted June 27, 2008 #22 Share Posted June 27, 2008 WelL I am just thrilled to be Going again because I was looking forward to that almost as much as the cruise Thank goodness we managed to get new tickets only almost as Much:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunshine1220 Posted June 27, 2008 #23 Share Posted June 27, 2008 You'll have to tell me all about it lol. I'm such a Rocky Horror fan. I love Frankenfurter.
