Hello everyone from the rain and snow capital of the world, Philadelphia, PA. We have even surpassed Seattle this year with moisture. I NEED BONAIRE MORE THAN EVER!! Can we please start a list as to who will be on the terrace on Tuesday, December 30th? If it is your first time going to Gibi's, you'll love Gibi, the food, the company, etc. Kathi and I have always enjoyed the whole experience. Hope to see you there. It will be so cool to have dry clothes on my body. Jim

Jim ... right now I can say that Mark and I will be there but I do know that after the first day or two on the island I slip away from things like plans, watches, etc and end up doing whatever the spirit moves me to do. I may be so slowed down and relaxed by then that I won't even know the date!
Agree about looking forward to dry -- and WARM!

James

Sue and I will probably be at Gibi's on the 23rd and 30th.

Brian

Looking forward to meeting you my British brother!!!

Brian...I have a feeling that you and Jim will get along famously...I'm just really jealous now

Jim, tip one for your soul sisters please

Brian - we will probably be there the 23rd. Like Susan I lose all track when I get there.

Jim - same thing for the 30th. We leave in 2 days out of Philadelphia and can't wait to get warm. The rain/snow/sleet has been wonderful hasn't it? What a year of moisture. They better not dare say anything about a drought!

2 days and counting!!!!

Tom

James

We look forward to meeting you on BON - I think there will be many BTers - I hope we have enough space at Gibi's - Jake are you going to be there?

Brian

Tom

Great, we leave on Satuday and get in at 5am, amybe we should have a theme for Gibi's - any ideas?

Fingers in wrong order again.

Cynde we will have a toast for you, Kelly and Martin.

Brian

Alan and I are planning on being there on the 30th -- hope you and Mark make it Sue.

Josie

Wally and Eva will be there on the 30th.

Josie ... I am sure we will make it because I know we have limited time together on this trip! I really do want to hook up for a dive and to laugh about last year's antics at Carnival! Plus Mark and I want to meet Alan since he had gone home last year by the time we arrived. Will you be going to Jake's on the 1st? Happy Holidays -- see you SOON! Susan

Brian - I say we just let the atmosphere of Gibi's handle the theme. It can't get any better than that!

Less than 24 hours and we'll be on the AJ flight out of Philadelphia!!!

See you all soon....Tom

Tom ... Sounds like we will be on the same flight from MoBay tomorrow! Less than 24 hours til we leave BOS!!! See you soon ... Susan

Just got back, so alas I'll miss it.
But Jim, for some reason your name is familiar. Do you teach at GS?

Holly, where is GS? I teach in a suburban district outside of Philadelphia called Council Rock. As far as a theme at Gibi's Terrace, how about naked?

David, Janet, and Sarah plan on being there 12/30. One more week to go!

Jim,
I know Council Rock. Grew up in Pennsbury. GS is the Quaker school in Newtown, and since you're just down the road in Langhorne, I thought maybe ...
So, have an Amstel for me, will you? I'm just back from Bonaire last Wednesday. I'll picture you all under the trees at the tables at Gibi's on the 30th.
Holly.

Susan, we are planning to be at Jake and Linda's on the 1st. Have no idea what to bring. see you soon....
Josie

Holly, George School is right by us. I just didn't put GS together with that. Then again, I'll probably never win a Nobel Prize either.

Missed last night as we went diving on Town Pier but still are planning Gibi's for the 30th.
