Leejnd: We're on the PG out of Papeete on Dec. 2nd, along with DenaH. You too? DenaH, I guess we'll just have to wait and see. Since we are now within 60 days of departure can we book excursions now? Can they be cancelled once we are onboard if we change our minds? You are both so lucky to be in CA to start your journey without having to fly across the US! We were lucky enough to convince Vantage Travel to change our one-stop flight to LA (in Dallas with a one hour connection window! Not enough leeway for perennially late-out-of-the-gate airpot like Phila. So now we fly non-stop on United- one less thing to worry about. Say Happy Birthday to me! Later..... Bill
