September 12, 2009 ~ Last Call for Tortola! Thread 2 - Page 20 - The DIS Discussion Forums

JLSE50 · 01-18-2009, 02:51 PM

From some earlier posts, here is some fun we had with food and supplies. I added the new cake.

HERE IS OUR PHONE

FAVORITE FOODS FOR OUR CRUISE

Woody suggested an official food--Tortillini

Notsolittlemermaid Cheri suggested another cruise food: Chocolate TORTola

ibouncetoo (Jackie) noticed that the berry looks like a turtle!

TORTOLA TREAT

SPECIAL DRINKS

newgeneb suggested the Martinitortorly But we don't know yet what's in it besides GIN!

Could it be Gin and Papaya nectar?

lg3 suggested that our drink could be the "Tequitortola"
Which also sounds good but how shall we make it?
Tequila and MANGO nectar!?!?
or
Margaritta and Mango nectar?

EXCURSIONS

jship has a suggestion for an activity!
"Factory Tour, pick me up on the way back!!!"

Tortola - I think the baths would be a good choice, but a tour of the island would be nice too.

You're going to wait until September for a bath?

I loved Coral World and the adjacent beach in St. Thomas. I am hoping to go there again. I loved swimming with all of the fish. There were so many of them. Haven't begun to research Tortola yet.

just a couple months late. Our 40th Anniversary is in August so we figure we can count that for this cruise too!

I have added you to post 1 on page 1 of this thread. Please check to be sure I made no typos and let me know if I did or if you want to add or change anything.

We used to live in Bethlehem PA and have been to Hershey a couple times. Love the chocolate odor that lingers!!

I am a fan of Hershey's chocolate over all other kinds!

Thanks for adding us to the list. The e is missing from the end of our name{S(Steele), but everything else looks good. Looking forward to meeting all of you

Just a Heads up... You probably won't see me from the Middle of next week on..

I have such a busy week, especially Thursday & Friday..

Wednesday I have to go to Court with DS for his speeding ticket ::cop: Poor kid is so nervous, he needs his Mommy.. Heck, I'd want my Mommy too..

Wednesday night I'm staying at Harrah's Casino *comped a room*

in Atlantic City..

Flying from AC to Florida at 6:25am

on Thursday.. then I'm Renting a car.. Going to our house.. Grabbing our Passports.. Grabbing Lunch.. Driving back to MCO.. Getting on a plane at 3:40pm.. Flying back to AC..

Driving home..

Packing.. Cause I know DH will NOT pack what "we" need..

Then Thursday night, we are Driving to Hampton Inn in Newark, spending the night..

Then.. Flying on Friday to Antigua at 9am!!

By the time I get there, I am going to NEED this vacation..

Yes, she did... true story!
