I wonder if those missing 46 passengers made it?

What? 46 passengers missed the ship? I just got here...does anyone know what happened?

Checking in....looks like just in time....

Lots of them at fountain gate today.

Have to check that out today...hope they still have some!

Thank you for the reminder Chief! I hope to be here today after missing yesterday!:rolleyes:

Texasaggie...it was so fun to see you waving last week! I hope you had a great time!

Thankyou so much for your replies everyone.

 

I definitely think it's worth the the extra few hundred to have that peace of mind.

 

I am a stress head, hubby is cool as a cucumber... A little too cool and "whatever". He's being a little tight with springing for a hotel and the flight change fee!

 

But upon hearing that I might stress out, having to deal with that, AND if we happened to miss the cruise, he would never hear the end of it!

 

I'll change flights tonight and book a room

I think that is a great idea! As many others have said, there is stress involved trying to play the "will we have delays and miss our flight/cruise, etc" game. I always come in at least a day ahead to just get there early and relax before a relaxing cruise.....;)

Sorry but can't be here today with you all as have salon appointment for my cruise in 3 weeks! Have a good wave for me! See you tomorrow though!

I hope you have a great cruise! It sounds like a good experience for the kids too!

Connie,

I just happened to find your review and read from beginning to end with such amazement! You planned your trip so well! I love your enthusiasm with which you planned and experienced your trip along with your husband and your mother! Your descriptions, details and pictures made for the best read! I love it in some of your pictures how very happy and content your mother looked.

I love your advice in your final summary where you address if you have been to a place, or are going to a place, etc. Some of the places you went we had been so that was great to see the experience thru your eyes. In the places we have yet to go, I can't wait to use your experience and information to make for a better time for us. We have not been on the Diamond Princess and after reading about your cruise, we have moved that up our list of ships to try.

I agree with the OP as well in that you could be a great writer for tourism for Australia. You captured the essence of a lot of Australian locations.

Well done and thank you so much for sharing your trip with us! I look forward to following any of your future trips!

Have to go for today as well...it has been most enjoyable! Thanks to Lou and Dave and all of you in the Sailaway Gang!! See you next time!

Have to go now. Until tomorrow - thanks Chief and cameramen.

Have a good day!

Celebrity very croaky.

Yes, very croaky!

Oasis now making her move....

What a pretty shot on the PE webcam of the three ships scattering in the ocean breeze.....

Here comes the Celebrity Constellation!! Nice looking ship!

We were slow leaving! Glad you all could see everything, and I agree about the toots. I think i counted eight total. Signing off now and I'll do a post trip report, but thanks for the wave back. We had fun.

It was a great shot of you waving! Have a wonderful cruise and I will look forward to your trip report!:)

The Carnival Freedom sures looks very long in comparison with the Caribbean Princess.........

Pretty good tooting from the Ruby. Here comes the Caribbean Princess.....

Lots of people on deck on the Ruby...how festive...so excited for everyone leaving on their cruises!!!!:D

Good shot of the flag and their waving.....!! More toots too!

Westerdam better hurry up before the Ruby gets there.....

Oh good tooting begins.... nice clear horn today.....

All those little boats need to get out of the way!

LOL...reminds me of the little fish that ride along side whales.....;)

Zooming and the lines let go for the Westerdam! Hurray!!!

Always like to fly in the day before in case plane breaks down or flight changes.

I used to do one day but then thought how much better 2 or 3 days would be and have not looked back....lol:)

I have to say that the sound is much better on my brand new computer. Now, if I could only start to like Windows 8!:eek::eek::eek:

That is a good thing! I know...I can't bring myself to upgrade to Windows 8...because if I do then I also have to get new printers...:o because they are not recognized with W8! These software people kill me...they get you coming and going it seems....

Time after time we see people arriving so close to departure time - I just cant believe it.

Me either!! They must not read CC!;)
