We rejoin our on the spot reporter
…Ginger Gimlet, at Tiki Oasis in San Diego for the big day, Saturday, where everyone was sporting their best Aloha wear.
The day started with a full courtyard and ballroom of amazing vendors with dollar bills trading between hands faster than a strip club. Vendors worked non stop all day with no breaks. This reporter barely left the Taboo Island suite, as they needed all the help they could get, since everyone was a bit hungover from the night before. I was able to escape slightly to check out the classic car show in the parking lot, featuring a nice selection of great classics and hot rods. (photos 1,2,3)
Near the end of the day, the Taboo Island artists – Thor, Dennis Mathewson, and Steve Madsen – took a time out from selling to display some of their art abilities on Kami the Mermaid. (photos 4,5) Once completed, the camera flashes were blinding as everyone wanted to pose with the canvas. (photos 6,7)
Once the sun fell, the crowd enjoyed an amazing performance by Crazy Al and Ape, followed by a midnight fire swim by Marina the Mermaid. This was followed by many room parties, but I can not give much detail nor share photos of anything, pending a current investigation.
This is Ginger Gimlet signing off – I have to meet with my bail bondsman…
- Finally from the Careless Navigator…MMMM Ginger Gimlet…Thanks Max.
