Kaua`i GTG, August 2nd
 

A motley crew assortment of Fodorites is meeting for a GTG at the Happy Talk Lounge at the Hanalei Bay Resort at 5:30 on August 2nd. Look for a balloon flying from a table. That will be us!

i2 darlin? As a public service and annoyance could you top this periodically in my absence? As you may have forgotten...I'M LEAVING TOMORROW! :*

Billy boy...if I didn't love you and Kauai so much, it would be an inconvenience.........but enough said.

Have a splendid time in spite of the r&r.....rain and roosters!

((r))i'2

Moi...motley??? :D

To all who are attending, be _sure_ to liberally apply mosquito repellant before arriving. If the breezes are blowing, we'll be fine -- but if the wind is still, the mosquitoes will consider all of _us_ their dinner buffet.

We'll be there by 5PM to get a good table for da gang, so feel free to come early if you want. See you there!

auntiem,
I'll be a walking DEET dispenser. I'm ready!

I'll help you a bit by topping this (green Kal's face for everyone to see)

Tonight's the night! What are the odds that they'll still be there when we arrive on the 5th? :)

Still on the island, or still in the bar?? :))

(topping, just to see Kal's green-with-envy faces again!)

S'okay, Kal -- we know you'll be with us in spirit(s).

Waiting for the trip report and ((p))'s

Have a wonderful time!!!((b))

AuntieM, would you be so kind to give my buddy Billy Boy a big ole smooch from me. Tell him Fodor's just isn't the same without him!

Would you all please discuss the thread that he has missed and you haven't replied to...&quot;Do your friends and loved ones think you are weird for meeting people on Fodor's&quot;. And of course report back to us.

And, would you also report here in the am with at least 1 photo of the GTG...

And, would you also please please please please try your best to enjoy yourselves while the killer mosquitos are flying in your faces?

This is for my buddy iamq, ko? :*
And this is what I am....:&amp;

And, honestly, we hope lots of ((r))s for all of you.

Ok, AuntieM...wake up........we are waiting to hear if Billyboy did the hula!

:-? #-o *-:)

Alooooooooooha! Woulda logged on earlier, but had to do my radio show first...

What fun we had at HBR last night -- and mahalo nui loa (thank you _very_ much) to the Fodorite menehune (little worker) who gifted our table with drinks and pupus anonymously!!! :-*

Our table (with balloon flying high) included iamq (aka, Billy Boy) and friend, Rich and DW, me 'n Bob -- and a non-Fodor couple who took advantage of our 2 extra chairs and wanted to share our fun. 8-)

We were all there early enough to have plenny time to chat (we truly were just friends who hadn't met before!). Rich and DW are from Pennsylvania, but the rest of us came to Kaua`i by way of the SF Bay area. With that revelation, I suggested we all join hands and sing &quot;Kuumbyah&quot;...but no one wanted to join in. :-D

Beautiful sunset, beautiful music and hula, great drinks, great pupus...and we talked about ALL of you, of course!!
