A favor if you are travelling to Dominica in Nov/early Dec

[maynovmom]

This is a weird request but....my mother bought a woman's wooden hair brush years ago as a souvenir in Dominica. It has a parrot painted on it in bright colors. The handle broke and we glued it together once but it broke again. If anyone is travelling there and is willing to look for a similar souvenir replacement for me I would really appreciate it. I know it is a silly request but it is something she really likes and we aren't travelling to that area this year. Anyone willing to look for this? I will pay you for it and the shipping. It would make a nice stocking stuffer surprise! :)

Do you know where in Dominica she bought it? I'd be willing to look for one for you, but I'm not a big shopper and might not know where to look.

Is Dominica offered on another sailing than Victory?

 

The last sailing of the Victory with the Dominica port still in the itinerary is returning today. The ship goes into dry dock for 2 weeks and then it sails again WITHOUT Dominica in it's itinerary on Nov. 21st.

I think it was on a bus tour we took. But I am sure it is one of those things that are sold by the locals on the streets like an outside market. When do you sail and on what ship? I guess the victory isn't going there any longer?

I found one when I was there last week. I hope it's the right one. I can email you a picture if you would like. I sailed on the Caribbean Princess.

I see you signed in yesterday. I still have your brush.

That was very nice. I hope they come back here to get your message!

No good deed goes unpunished, hope you like the hairbrush too.

:-) What can I say, I was just trying to help. It cost a whole $4, so hopefully the OP will come back and claim it. If not, at least I tried to help someone have a nice holiday.

That was nice of you. I would have done the same. It's not like they asked you to buy a diamond ring. The OP may be working and will come back soon.

As someone else said, it was very nice of you to do (and not that much of a 'gamble' either :) ) Plus, you got to go to Dominica! :D

what a nice person you are! if only there was more people like you in the world!!!:)

Maybe I should have bought a diamond ring. You can never have enough diamonds. :-)

The OP was online on Dec. 5. I'm surprised she wouldn't have extended the courtesy of a response to such a helpful poster! Sheesh.:rolleyes:

[jam82]

I saw she was on yesterday too. She probably figured that since Carnival wasn't going there anymore no one would come through.
