TvTech6 Posted November 22, 2010 #1 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Just booked this cruise with a buddy. So far, 2 other people we met on CARNIVAL GLORY this past June are booking the same cruise. Hope we get a nice big group at the FOD meeting. Patrick & Jimmy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I talked to Chuck to book, he said he was looking as his vacation time trying to work it out. Wouldn't it be great if Pero were on this ship. I am so looking forward to hanging out with all of you again. It was such a good time in June. Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have been hitting below zero up here this week. Possible more snow tomorrow. I am super excited for this cruise in September .... so much so, I keep forgetting that I am going to Vegas in April. Need to get excited about that trip first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose I should be excited about the trip to Vegas that is only 9 days away first. Then the Vegas trip in July. But somehow the CRUISE keeps jumping to the head of the excitement list.

If I didn't already have 10 days in Vegas in July, plus a week in August that includes 3 nights in Montreal ... I would consider joining you. But I have to watch the spending a bit. In June, we have our BIG GAY CRUISE during pride week. (3 hours on the Hudson river on a Friday night) That will be my only cruise before September.

wiskt Posted May 25, 2011 #18 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Just took the cruise critic survey upon loggin in and used the 10% off cruise critic merchandise to pick up a few extra CC LUGGAGE SPOTTERS & and a new MONO PACK. (small backpack):D Wish they still had the old white luggage tags. I figure if it gets my luggage to the room a little faster and in tact they are worth it.

Luggage spotters seem to just be some kind of padding for the handles???? is there more to it?? and I took the survey, and it gave me 25% off. why would it be different? I am still so new to all this cruising stuff. (not the cruising I usually do) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been replying on the other big roll call for this cruise for about a week and was hoping real bad Andrew and I wouldnt be the only ones! Haha! I shoulda known better. My name is mike. I'm 31. This is gonna be my very first ever cruise and I'm about to drive everyone crazy at work talking about it. My partner is Andrew, 35. We're flying in on the 9th and staying at the Orlando World Center. As for the cruise, we're getting to the port very early, and we have a guaranteed balcony but haven't been assigned yet. We haven't booked any excursions either, mainly just to save money and time for the beaches. But we want to see the planes land at the famous beach on ST Maarten. Anyway, thanks for your posts... They help me see what I'm in for. If there are any things I should know about please fill me in. :) Thanks--Mike (and Andrew) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are 4 of us going that all met on a cruise last year out of NYC. That was my first ever cruise ... and had such a great time. Loved meeting new people, and clicking so well, we planned this cruise together. (FACEBOOK makes that so easy now). We look forward to meeting you at that first night FOD gathering. My buddy Jim and I are always flying in the day before the cruise. Not sure where we are staying yet that night. After the cruise returns, we are staying over one night and flying home on the Sunday. Probably will enjoy time in Orlando that final night. Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
