Thread: December 2011

Zazu, How neat that we share an anniversary! We got engaged in June 2000 & already had a a trip to Hawaii planned for that Decomber....so, we just added a wedding instead of waiting until the following June. And now we have a good reason to travel in December. Getting so excited...only 9 more days.

John & Diane - arriving on the early flight from Philly December 1 - staying until 12/6 (exact same dates as last year, our first time). Celebrating 35th anniversary later in December, though. Now we know exactly all the wonderful things to look forward to, and going to try a Bob Marley for the first time (plus all the other fave drinks I've read about during the past year on the forum).

10 days more of waiting, Chritmas tree is up , packing has begun, work is getting more tedious , wishing I was relaxing on the beach instead! Soon come!

We put up a minimum amount of out door Christmas decorations and have already started our trip to Jamaica, We are in Las Vegas now and fly out Wednesday for Orlando and then on to Mo'bay. Had to
change from winter wear to shorts today. Only 70 degrees here but a lot warmer than our valley. On our way at last! Larry and Judi

The waiting is almost over and we will be home in 11 days!!! Monica and I are looking forward to seeing everyone soon.
Here's the final December 2011 list. Hope everyone already at CSA is having a wonderful time.

Attached is a pic of Andy and I (with glorious Seattle and Mt. Rainier in the background!).

Hi Jamaication
This is our first Christmas at Couples, but I have read that Santa arrives on the beach on Christmas morning. We will be at CSA 12/21-30. Our picture is on the wonderful spreadsheet Mike has put together. We plan to spend a lot of time near the pool with the swim up bar. Hope to see you there.
Your picture of Mt Rainier brings back childhood memories. I grew up in Bremerton & could see Mt Rainier from our kitchen window every morning (except when it was raining).
19 days & a wake up until we are on the beach.

And he even brings presents for good boys and girls too!

Oh my goodness, this is AMAZING! Too bad we don't get in until later that day.

We were fortunate enough to see our Jamaican Santa last year at CSA! This year we will be there Dec 9-17, so wont get to see him this year! But was thinking about bringing Christmas lights for our balcony. Is it too soon to have them up on our balcony there, or will it be festive?

We take lights every trip even in May gives a nice touch to the balcony...You will see alot of lights up when you are there...We arrive on island 9 dec will be at CSA 11-19 Dec

On Flight Us Air out of Charlotte on Friday the 9th at 11:30am!!!

My gf and I will be at the resort for Xmas also (our 1st trip to the resort), plan to hit the beach with a drink in our hand, and feet in the sand..

Randi&Sherri, thanks for the xmas light reply. Guess we will be packing some lights, cord and zip ties to tie them up! As we are on the BFVS, so will be seen lots!

We arrive late on the 9th, till the 17th. Who knows, might see you at the repeaters dinner monday night! Did some preliminary packing last night, need to pick up some more boardshorts today and will then finish off the packing tonight! My boardshorts rule the beach!

Soon Come CSA!!!

Hi,

My wife and i were there last year for xmas and are there again this year from the 23-27. Apart from the beach santa they had very nice christmas eve cocktails and show last time in one of the gardens in the property. Cant wait for this year ...just 9 more days to go

Only 3 days & a wake-up until we arrive for a long awaited return to CSA. We will be packing our bags & getting ready to head for the airport. We land in Jamaica at 10:30 am on 12/21 & figure we will be at the beach bar by 1:30. Can't wait.

Hey Maggie- me and my John will be there about the same time....coming from Raleigh, NC. See you on the beach (and maybe the bus from the airport )....

Just arrived at MBJ for our return to Alabama.
CSA was excellent as usual. The food was even better than we remembered. The chef outdid himself this year especially when it came to lobster night. The lobster at Feathers and at the Patois Patio was the best we have ever had at CSA.
Staff was superb throughout the resort and we already miss them.
Club Mobay at the airport is a pleasant surprise. Excellent drinks, good snacks, wifi, and very easy to relax before the flight home. I'll write more later but there's a gin and tonic waiting for me.
Monica and I wish everyone a wonderful time at CSA

We enjoyed our visit and are going to book for next Dec. It was nice to see Mike and Monica if only for a short hello before we left for CSS. Larry and Judi

Hi Mike and Monica.
Glad to hear your vacation was excellent. Food and staff too. Cannot wait to get there.

We only have seven more nights in PA and then off to CSA.

Looks like we are going to try Club MoBay too. Any suggestions you may have for this will be welcome.


Take care,
Bern & Bob
