Hi all,
The price tag did come down since it's $45 a person when all is said and
done. If it was the prices I mentioned last night, that was still not
including the service charge and taxes so it would have been probably $10
higher. I know it's still expensive. Let me know what you all think. Is
Sunday morning or evening good for anyone? I know PW mentioned whenever
would be OK with him.
Thanks!
Kristi
