Thx everyone.....I guess I shall book thru Island Marketing in order to secure my spot!!:

The pending snow storms make me look forward to my March cruise even more!!! We have read good things about the British Colonial Hilton & that it is very quiet. Can you tell me how we go about purchasing a day pass? on line? thru their website? front desk when we get there? Not concerned about price, but more concerned about not being able to get in. Thank you!!::

I am SO looking forward to your semi live posts. We are taking the same cruise in 105 days. 1st time sailing out of Baltimore in the winter. Really confused as to how to pack for the weather. Any light you can shed on that should be great!:confused:

Folks, I actually posted a thread telling this story and thanking you. You most likely were still on the way home....but Lydia called me that day and we had a wonderful conversation. She says she was so touched and so surprised when you approached. Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, as now we know our dear Lydia is safe. I am wishing you both a great holiday season and will pray and wish that someone, someday will repay you for this kind act. Hugs~~~ Thom and Dolly:)

When the typhoon hit the Philipines, I posted this note:

Hi Folks,

Thru the years we have become very close with a casino dealer, Lydia, who is from, and has family in the Phillipines. Lydia is usually at the BJ table or 3 Card Poker. We just had a wonderful chat with her last month while on the FOS. If you are on the FOS and happen to see her, can you ask if her family is safe...and tell her that Dorothy (Dolly) and Thom send their love....thank you.

To all,

My BIL is setting up his cruise for March 2014 & is looking for a safe, comfortable hotel, close to the cruise terminal....or one that offers shuttle service. I rave about the folks Cruise Critics and how they know alot about EVERYTHING. Can you offer some suggestions? Thank you so much

did you happen to keep any of your daily compasses?

Good morning all.....we are D+ and have always booked a Jr. Suite....and have always been very happy with our room. We are thinking about treating ourselves & upgrading to a Gr. Suite, on the FOS. Can you tell me what additional perks there may be? What do you find special about the Gr. Suite: thanks!! ;)
