Loved. Every. Minute.
Okay, maybe not the five minutes when the hotel fire alarm went off at 3:15 a.m., but everything else...Loved.
You know, there were many who expressed concern about this year's theme -- that it was not "Tiki enough". But I have to tell you, having observed the sea of sombreros bobbing to Marty Lush and his Latin Livers, really, who cares? People were enjoying this. There was, and will always be, plenty of Tiki at Tiki Oasis. The yearly "theme" Otto comes up with is for people to find new ways to have fun with it all, and keep our imaginations AND TIKI going. If we do the same thing every year, at every event, we will bore ourselves and Tiki will deteriorate faster than a paper umbrella in a spilled Mai Tai.

Thank you, Otto and Baby Doe, for another terrific party. I'm already thinking about my secret-agent theme ideas for next Oasis. "Spy vs Tiki".
