hahaha don't get the wrong idea... i'm no booze hound... i am a relaxed pub style girl who likes a few drinks in the evening and when on vacation i like to take advantage of an afternoon beer... but you probably won't find me in the clubs till 4 in the morning... i am old and cranky and like my sleep :P

ps maybe we should endeavour to meet in the lobby around noon or something on the 17th?

since we ain't got no cell phones and all...

:P

I was just joking about the drinking....

My job is killing me as this vacation is getting closer. It seems like fate has it that work gets to be the worst leading up to a vacation, to further point out how much you need it.

Meeting around noon in the hotel the 17th sounds like a plan to me, for all those around.

And Mason, you will be in good company about old and cranky needing sleep crowd. I usually work with people in their 50's and 60's. Some of their tendencies have worn off on me. Sleep is indeed good, especially on a vacation!

Hope everyone is having a good weekend!

Hey!!

I will also be on this trip I'm traveling alone so it would be cool to meet some people beforehand. Spain is supposed to be amazing. I did a European Discovery tour a couple years ago and I loved it. I'm 22 btw, and from Canada. Feel free to send me a message on here or add me on msn messenger at matt099@live.com.

Heya!
Im on this trip too. My name is Annalise. Im 22 from Australia. Im travelling alone and get to the hotel on the 16th. Just wondering if anyone else will be there a day early too? Or am i gunna be a loner till the tour starts

Hello All:

I will be on this tour as well. My flight doesn't arrive until the afternoon of the 17th, so I gather I will meet everyone that evening. I'm a female and like Matt, I'm from Toronto, Canada...I cannot believe that the day is so near--I'm so excited and look forward to having some fun!

Annalise,

I will be around. My flight arrives around 10 AM. I don't want to be too redundant on this forum, so I will send you a private message.

This post is getting quite big and I have been pleading for company a day early since March...

hey explorer 329...

my documents say confortel barcelona... as did the email i received earlier from Contiki... kind of disconcerting that you have conflicting information...

hey all, I booked my flight and contiki tour back in feb with Flight Centre. If only i realized there was a forum for meeting people here, i would have signed up sooner!!

So for those flying out of toronto, what airline are you with? i'm taking British airways and will arrive in barcelona sometime in the morning as well.

thanks for posting that i have to find my own way in barcelona!!! yikes, like Lubs, this is my first vacation alone and am quite quiet at times too.

FYI i'm female, 34. looking forward to partying and meeting you all! hehe.
