Hi Karen, I am sure you already saw my response to Paul so you know that you and the Tropica gang are also all set for an additional two rooms. Just go ahead and make the reservations and then email me the confirmation and extension request and I will take care of the rest. Scott, I guess we should make the Topica boys reservations after Karen confirms their dates? We should also start looking at some fares for Troels.
