I just learned of this and we booked flights and hotel rooms. Can't wait. It looks like such fun. Any advice for a few newbies and first timers to tiki oasis?

Join the Facebook group -- just search Tiki Oasis--because the majority of information will be posted there.

As far as advice :

Go easy at The Bali Hai (thursday's meet and greet) because if you drink the cocktails are STRONG and will sneak up on you. Nothing worse than starting the weekend off with a major hangover.

Drink water--lots of it!

Bring sunscreen--the San Diego sun can be brutal and even if you don't go swimming you will be running back and forth from inside to outside and you will get burned

Bring an extra empty carry on for stuff you buy. You can always ship it home too.

Room parties are the big draw at Oasis -- they happen at night in the big suite rooms so check the elevators for flyers adverstising room #s/theme/start times. Don't miss Tiki Hell--BEST room party every year!

Tiki Oasis is full of the friendliest people so talk to folks every chance you get. This is no time to be shy :)

Also check out threads on past Tiki Oasis events on Tiki Central to get an idea of the event as a whole.
