Maam - I will be bringing you a bottle FOR SURE in April. We arrive on the 16th early ;-) Spending the 15th on STT.

I don't care if you get 10 bottles from others between now and then, I am still bringing one :-)

These will work well: http://www.amazon.com/Travel-Wine-Prote ... B0033C6FOM

Sounds like a bay breeze just waiting to happen, for starters!
Why not try it with banana liqueur, melon liqueur(midori), a splash of sour mix and pineapple juice. (more pj than sour)
Or, use that, blue curacao, and again, a splash of sour, & pineapple juice.
I don't tend to give exact recipe amounts/ measurements of different drinks because I don't know how big the glass will be that you're making them in!
Anyway there are a couple of groovy colored flavor filled drinks that'll put you right on the beach!

Jim just brought down 4 cases of wine in 2 hard suitcases, he puts paper towel rolls all around the cases to cushion the movement and soak up possible breakage. So far that has not been needed. We use the paper towels and they are cheaper at home! Win Win!!! You know I am going back on the 23rd for a long weekend, I can certainly fit a bottle or 2 in one of my 3 free USAIR bags!!!!

Pia,
I arrive March 10, and only do carry on. Can you bring liquor on carry on? If so I will be storing my own luggage so can bring you come. Let me know.

Thanks for the offer Rosi but to carry on it has to be under 3oz (remember that when packing your shampoo etc) so 3oz oz vodka would be an appetizer :)
