I'll be here sorry!!!! Wish I could make it. But if you guys want, look at the webpage, deck party sponsored by Dewars!

http://www.mayorscuptournament.com/

Thursday night party!!! Saturday and Sunday party.

Friday I will be with the team catching bait and going to sleep early. Need to be at the dock at 5am.

Pep,

Best of luck in the tournament

Is that the Tavern in the Grove?

PS: Oscar, if you are available late the 28th we could probably have a late dinner or some drinks.

Maybe next time Dan

Def = Definitely
Prob = Probably
May = Maybe

Def Leo [IdleSwede]
Def John and Roxanne [JohnEaton]
Def Mike [Ft LaudMike]
Prob Hiram and Liz [djhiran]
Prob Lee [InGoodTime]
May Anastasios [tempoking]
May Nikos [greekbum]
May Tim [WWIIBuff]


Any of the above bringing a guest?

Counting down... three weeks from today

Lets get 12 definitely's and I'll reserve a table at Casablanca's for 6:30 January 29th. Come on guys the forecast for the 29th is low of 64, high of 76 and sunny, you know you want to be in Ft Lauderdale

BUT: If we have less than 12 then there is just more to drink for those of us that do show

If I get an idea of the size of the party I could reserve some tables... Or as a local perhaps you have a better idea Leo?

Again, Roxanne and I are just being tourists and are open to ANY time day or night on the 29th...

Thanks to all who can attend and a BIG thanks to you Leo

Hope to see you there fellow WIS

Maybe we should start a roster around ten days out??? Or should I just let you handle that Leo?
Yes Casblancas is very good. And just right down the way the new W restuarant / Club opened it is very nice great atmosphere..

Gentlemen,

If Liz and I do end up going it will be later on. We are about 70% sure we'll go as it is right now. I don't get out of work on Fridays until right around 6:30; just in time for rush hour traffic

Oscar,

We'll be there the evening of the 28th and are open for a late dinner, if you can make it.

Early breakfast on the 29th at the Tower Club, as we are visiting Rotarians and wanted to coordinate with relief efforts... Probably meeting with Leo's bulk shipper at Pt Everglades and then some sightseeing (I was told to check out J R Dunn on Las Olas) before the GTG at Casablanca's from 6:45PM til they kick us out.

Breakfast on the 30th is open, but boarding the Eurodam around noon.

Certainly hope to see you and Anastasios while we are in town.

SO Oscar, you going to make it?



Roxanne and I were picking up my Tux today (had it fitted) and noticed a guy wearing a 16613 bluesy and his girl had a lady DJ, but didn't say anything at the time. Anyway later the store manager asks when's the cruise? We said about ten days... And the couple says: "Really, where?" We told them Eastern Caribbean; they said us too, the 30th.

We told them about the GTG at Casablanca's and exchanged numbers and it seems we will meet up either at Casablanca's or St Thomas. Small world (bearing in mind that we are about as far from Ft Laud as you can get in the lower 48.)

Sorry Oscar, straight off the Eurodam and then on the plane.

Found out today I will be back to Ft Laud / Miami again 30 to 60 days later to coordinate with Haiti ship and then on to Haiti. No firm date as of this time.

Sounds as though you like Casablanca, hope to see you there; of course if you can't make the 29th a late dinner on the 28th is a possibility. Or even breakfast the 30th
