Recommended Posts

Welcome back, Linda, hope you had a good time :)
Hi Nell, We had a wonderful time, lovely hotel and fabulous weather, only one cloudy day. Got a bit burnt the first day :eek: I didn't realise how hot it was :rolleyes: We were quite lazy, but did go for a few walks. The marina is beautiful. We really fell in love with Cala d'or. It's on our "would go back to" list. Now to win the lottery and buy an appartment there ;);)

Pleased you enjoyed your holiday, Linda. :)

 

Just come back from a day visit on Spirit, where we were advised that Dreamliner would be flying to Barbados on selected flights from Gatwick and Manchester this winter.

We stayed at the Rocamarina Hotel - Thomson Gold - (no kids:)) Very good entertainment most nights ( a couple of exceptions:eek:) but the rep did say they tried to please everyone. Two shows from Thomson Showteam, very good. They did one called Il Classico - classical and show songs - excellent :) Also a singer and comedian called Graham Powell and a Spanish group (can't remember their name) who sang rock songs. All would be good on Thomson cruises :)

We did Sheila, but never found the steps you told us to go down :rolleyes: We set off with your instructions and met up with another couple from our hotel who had a map and we went down a road on the right and came right to the marina. We carried on round to Cala d'or beach and had a beer at the hotel Cala d'or and then walked back to the marina and found a lovely pathway back to the hotel, but still didn't find the steps :o

 

Sorry peeps, right off topic :o:o:o

 

Anyone know how many dreamliners have Thomson got :confused:

The steps led down to that path about half way along but they might have been quite easy to miss. That was 2010 we were there on a cruise and stay, things could have changed. (Incidentally I caught what I think was Norovirus while staying there!)

Dreamliner was in Dalaman last Monday (24th) and Yesterday, Gatwick Flights

 

Spoke to a couple on board who flew over on the 24th they all had photos took and were given flowers as it was the first flight to Dalaman.

 

Lovely aircraft and Mr Topsey was very pleased to see a certain logo on the engines
