Renorita Posted March 19, 2005 #101 Share Posted March 19, 2005 I also checked the itinerary as some others have. I think HAL is listening! This is the same itinerary as we sailed this past January EXCEPT Turks & Caico replaced Nassau and the port time in Turks & Caico is longer than it was in Nassau. I know we noted on our survery that if we had Nassau as a port for a future cruise we wouldn't even get off the ship and alot of others shared the same opinion. We just LOVED both St. Maarten and Tortola so this is a great itinerary for us. I am so looking forward to meeting all of the CC folks on this cruise! If we get enough of us we can become the big obnoxious group that everyone complains about! Have our own costume party, take over the aft pool, ask everyone we meet what their CC screen name is and then look at them in shock when they haven't a clue what we're talking about.....I know a bunch of Cardinal fans I wouldn't mind feeling like THEY were the out of place outsiders on the ship! And if we get REALLY big, maybe we will take over the whole ship! Lets see now, where did I get THAT idea?????:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeatherInFlorida Posted March 19, 2005 Author #102 Share Posted March 19, 2005 Hey, everyone! I guess a good idea is a good idea:D . There are now 2 threads going for a group cruise to Alaska or Hawaii. Another day another time I would have loved to go with RevNeal to Hawaii, but sadly not in 2006. If anyone who has decided to join us would prefer to do the 15-day Hawaii (I believe it's in early October 2006), please let me know now just so I know where we are. I posted on Greg's thread that it's not fair to take "our" cruisers away:( , but I'm kidding of course. Everyone should go where they want to go. Personally I hope you all stay with us because I think we've got a great group and we're going to have terrific time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sinbad37 Posted March 19, 2005 #107 Share Posted March 19, 2005 :D DON'T YOU JUST LOVE IT WHEN A GAME PLAN COMES TOGETHER!:D We add our Thanks for your efforts! Ed and I plan on joining in the fun of this FIRST EVER HAL CC VOYAGE! THE 10/29/06 WAS MY FIRST CHOICE, so I am a happy camper (sailor). Icing on my Birthday Cake is the Masquerade Ball! My birthday is 10/30/????;) My family had many birthdays in October. God Bless my Grandmother...she always made a big "Party" on HOLLOWEEN which included her home made Walnut Cake and icing names for all family members with October birthdays. We also went way out to do the masquerade! Cousins by the dozens - and we all tried to find a costume where we could not be "identified" by our well known relatives! One cabin, a suite I hope!

HeatherInFlorida Posted March 19, 2005 Author #110 Share Posted March 19, 2005 Ginny & Ed, glad to have you!!! I've also added your email address to my roster. The email would come from HeathersIsland@aol.com. That's my "official" CC email address;) . As soon as I get more info (which I would guess will be next week sometime), I'll let you all know. In the meantime, our list is growing!! We already have over 20 cabins!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iggipolka Posted March 20, 2005 #114 Share Posted March 20, 2005 Wohoo! The wife said there's a somewhat good chance that she'll be back in country by October 2006. She's excited about the cruise, but said that she'll only go if we get an Aft Suite..so save us one! ;) After where she's been, she's going to need some safe space and luxury to decompress. We'd also love to share a Cabana with someone. Wow..I've been feeling silly about getting all excited about a cruise that's 7 months+ away, now I'm all in anticipation about one that is a year and a half away! Go ahead and pet the cute doggy.

kryos Posted March 20, 2005 #119 Share Posted March 20, 2005 Rita, we'll have to watch and see if anyone is looking for a share! I really appreciate the thought, Heather, but I think on this shorter cruise, I'd prefer to have my own cabin. I'm "fickle" and it's just easier that way ... especially with HAL's single supplements being so reasonable. Besides ... I got the "bad habit" (smoking), so it's best I have the cabin to myself. :) Blue skies ... --rita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kryos Posted March 20, 2005 #120 Share Posted March 20, 2005 If our plans don't work out for a two week cruise on Statedam in Oct. or Dec., we very much would like to be a part this CC group cruise whichever date you decide, our first choice would be the 10 Day Volendam on 11-3 and 2nd would be the 10-29 date. You know, once a travel agency has been selected, there's no reason that people interested in a longer cruise ... especially if there were enough of them ... couldn't "negotiate" a special rate on a b2b encompassing this cruise. I know that under normal circumstances that's what I would do. Seven days is just not long enough and I'd want to tack on another week. Of course, 2006 will not be a normal year for me in terms of cruising ... so this idea is just not feasible in my case with this group cruise. I'll just have to settle for seven fun-filled days instead! :) But, I just thought I'd mention it for others who may be sitting on the fence about this ... feeling that a seven-day cruise is just not long enough.

HeatherInFlorida Posted March 20, 2005 Author #121 Share Posted March 20, 2005 Absolutely, Ruth! And maybe some of the people who were hoping for the Western itinerary could do a B2B and get the best of both worlds! I'm not a Western Caribbean fan so it's not for me and we can't do 2 weeks in 2006 anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlorenceItaly Posted March 20, 2005 #122 Share Posted March 20, 2005 A friend of mine, designed the one for our Sept 2005 cruise(see below). I can ask her if she would consider doing one for ours if there is no one in the group that has that talent. Marie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeatherInFlorida Posted March 20, 2005 Author #123 Share Posted March 20, 2005 Marie, that might be a great idea if she is willing! Let's wait and see the info I get from LauraS. I know the info I have says something about giving us a signature link and I have no idea what that means. But can I keep this in mind? Because that might work out great for us. Thanks for suggesting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
