mbisson Posted May 5, 2009 #127 Share Posted May 5, 2009 I'm back! The meeting didn't last long so I just came on home!:D Shhhh -- don't tell my boss! "Lili. Lili, Lili, Lili, legs, Lili, Lili... I cannot finds the words to truly express my joy at the rekindling of our association." Monte - I just saw a story about a 7'3" kid from Ellensburg who got to go meet Shaq. Big story in your town? Ya'll sure grow 'em big up there! Sea Hound:D Actually, that's quite a sad story, but he's certainly got one heck of a positive attitude! Good kid OK I'm making a quick hijack---which resort at Punta Cana do you guys stay at (I'm investigating for future reference). OMG it appears I just ended a sentence with a preposition!! :eek: Several resorts look interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sea Hound Posted May 5, 2009 #128 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Actually, that's quite a sad story, but he's certainly got one heck of a positive attitude! I just saw part of it. You're right about the young man's positive attitude. Shaq really surprised me with his caring attitude, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaq made his day-week-month-year-decade. Gave the kid a bunch of clothes and flew him and his family in for a meet&greet. As I recall, Oprah arranged a lot of it, so kudos to her as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mooder Posted May 5, 2009 Author #136 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Nope, not yet. Just missed the post where 'muder named names thanx I've been to 3 PC resorts (Majestic Colonial, Ocean Blue, and NH Real) and have friends who have been to Bahia Principe a couple of times (too big for me, but very nice). If you have any questions, please let me know (here or via email). It looooooove PC and would be happy to help if I can. Which are you looking at?

If you have any questions, please let me know (here or via email). It looooooove PC and would be happy to help if I can. Which are you looking at? I just checked my source and can get The Reserve at Paradisus Palma Real for $329 per week but then in the small print it says "The resort has a MANDATORY ALL INCLUSIVE PROGRAM, 2009 FEES: US$120 per person/day,children 3-12 years old 50% off. The program includes food, beverages. All inclusive fees must be paid on arrival at front desk. Fees & amenities subject to change without notice." So 240 X 7 = $1680. $1680 + $329 + airfare = more than you pay. Not a deal.:( (Unless I do the drinking you mentioned!) SH:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SH:D But I CAN get The St. George's Club in Bermuda for: $329/wk + $50/wk/person restaurant fee + airfare Now THAT'S not shabby! :DSH:D Not shabby at all! I always think of Bermuda as out of reach, except by cruise ship. I have used several sources, each year shopping around, and of course I can't mention any. But this past year, I discovered that the site where cruise agents compete has a sister site where resort agents compete. ;) Using that I found a great price and a great TA who I will probably use directly in the future because he was so good. He specializes in resort-type vacations so he wasn't able to get me the best deal on my cruise, which really disappointed me, but he explained that he is not in the top tier with NCL in terms of commissions so he understood if I wanted to go elsewhere. But for resorts, he will match any price you can find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
