We plan to bring our alcoholic cocktails in plastic cups pool side. I'd be surprised if there was an issue with that. :) On 2007-06-23 13:32, tiki-lee wrote: I will heading out with Miss Cat from AZ.

T tikiwinebear Member Santa Rosa, CA (Sonoma - wine country) Joined: Sep 30, 2004 Posts: 582	T tikiwinebear Posted posted on Thu, Jul 12, 2007 1:41 PM Hey Vamp! Yes, there are separate tickets for the seminars such as Beachbum Berry's. You need to get back onto the Tiki Oasis website and click the area for Reservations, then click on Purchase Tiki Oasis Tixs. A listing of all extra seminars (free and for purchase) will be displayed. Pick the ones you want then you will need to pay for them upon exiting the website. I got a couple tickets each to Sven's and Beachbum Berry's. Make sure you check the times so you don't overbook your day of fun!! See ya next month! Myke

O Otto Grand Member (3 years) NorCal Joined: Mar 29, 2002 Posts: 1000	O Otto Posted posted on Mon, Jul 16, 2007 12:34 AM yes, the symposiums are priced and ticketed separately from the event. the ticket price for Oasis has not gone up (unlike the price of gas and food) but we added the symposiums so we have to add fees to cover costs. Billybobaloo, obviously you have not been to Hukilau where similar seminars are similarly priced. btw, Beachbum Berry is giving a very similar presentation at Tales of the Cocktail in New Orleans this weekend. You can catch him there for $35 or go to Oasis and pay $25 On 2007-07-12 13:20, billybobaloo wrote: On 2007-07-12 13:01, VampiressRN wrote: I have my tickets for Friday and Saturday night, but is there an additional ticket I need to get to attend the classes/presentations?

Maybe someday, after I'm done putting the little bastards through college, that will change, but until then my Vacations are spent locally. 25 bucks isn't too bad, but I'll be too busy chopping in the Tiki Village to be able to go to that. You guys can let me know how it was.

Although, it IS probably worth a good 25 bucks to watch the new guy ruin a great log and then stab himself in the crotch with his new Flexcut chisels.

Not only is the entire carvers village free of charge to guests, so is the uke jam on sunday, Tiki bazaar (shopping) on Sunday, and Bosko's seminar and my own seminar. As well as the room crawls (trade for gifts of booze, etc.) So there is plenty of FREE stuff going on for those who have cashed in on travel expenses.

C Cammo Member San Diego Joined: May 18, 2006 Posts: 2041	C Cammo Posted posted on Tue, Jul 24, 2007 1:22 PM I went on the Tiki Bus Tour last year, and it was really fun. This year, the stop at the China Inn (and hopefully HodadHank's Freaky BouTIKI shop) is a great idea; the Polynesian drinks there are the best priced around. The Friday excursion is a must-do for first time out-of-towners, where else can you let somebody else drive you to all the Tiki spots in Pacific Beach? And the water taxi is a swell idea too, boats are the perfect place to party on - and on....

The thunderous storms and dense jungles are clearing so I WILL be able to make it to Oasis 7 in time. A nasty row with some headhunters almost "cut off" my trip plans but, alas, it seems my head is too hard to shrink! Oh what fun it will be to once again hear the (friendly) beat of the drums and rest in the comfort of the bamboo's shade without fear that the bamboo comes with assorted varieties of poison darts. The trip thru the asphalt jungles of SoCal will include being in LA the week before Oasis. Of course I will be up for visits to watering holes where our friendly ohana imbibe. Please email me if plans have already been wrought for such festivities. Can't wait to see each and everyone in the amazing Kingdom of Oasis. VII ! ! ! Wow. Seem like just yesterday when a handful of us roamed the desert and happened upon that once friendly Caliente Tropics - my how we have grown!
