I think she's on my mind because she's been so ill. Rita, sorry! Ziggy, what would I do without you to keep me on track;) .

HeatherInFlorida Posted March 21, 2005 Author #129 Share Posted March 21, 2005 That will be one of the big decisions facing us over the next year and a half;) . Of course it's easy for me ... "Heather" will do it:D . But for many, the "real" name won't even give a clue! Of course, we could try to figure it out and just forget name tags all together at least in the beginning. I think that would be the most fun. Brian is going to plan a get together at a hotel the night before. I think we should all arrive there with no sign of who we are and we'll just figure it out. For some it will be easy because of our avatars and posted pics. My avatar is a flattering picture so I could probably fool you all. The whole thing should be really fun and interesting as it unfolds.! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renorita Posted March 21, 2005 #130 Share Posted March 21, 2005 There may be two parties of not knowing who we are. The first one at the Hotel, and then again if we have a masquerade party! :) Heather, to really confuse you, there are two Rita"s!

Ziggy7 Posted March 21, 2005 #131 Share Posted March 21, 2005 [size=3][color=black]Well shoot there goes my idea for everyone carrying signs with name, age, rank, serial number, who your with, who you belong to, how many kids, and anything else about you, so we dont have to take notes and remember it later !! :p [/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richcrow Posted March 21, 2005 #132 Share Posted March 21, 2005 [quote name='HeatherInFlorida']Oh, C'mon Ziggy!!! I know you're kidding because you can't do that without a reservation # and you don't have one!!! You're trying to get us all excited!!! Bad girl!!!:D[/QUOTE] Of course you are right, Heather. But this made me think about cabanas. Do you think that it would be a good idea to try and book as many cabanas as early as we could. If we had more than four people per cabana interested, it sure would start to make the cost per person pretty reasonable. Richard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeatherInFlorida Posted March 21, 2005 Author #133 Share Posted March 21, 2005 Yes, Richard, I agree absolutely. They won't open those up for reservations until a few months before the cruise. By then we'll know how many people we are and how many would like to pitch in. The cabanas are $219 for 4 people and I believe you can add people for $45 pp. It would be great if we could reserve 3 or 4, but we can work this out as time goes on. I know that sometimes the cabana boys are quite flexible about how many people are actually coming and going in a cabana, but obviously you can't pack 12 into one and not expect to pay extra. We'll have to talk about this as time goes on, but I think cabanas are great. We really enjoyed ours on our recent cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeatherInFlorida Posted March 21, 2005 Author #134 Share Posted March 21, 2005 Ziggy, I'm surprised you haven't put a ticker for "our" special cruise:D . Rita, you're right! It gets tricky! And we don't even know first names for some of these guys. But I'm taking lots of notes and email addresses! Richard and Iggi, love your new pictures!

adamsmark Posted March 21, 2005 #135 Share Posted March 21, 2005 Now this is beginning to sound like fun!!! Iggi, Ziggy, Sail, Heather and their spouses in adjoining cabanas! Do the spouses know all about these plans yet? We may have to sign up for this cruise ourselves. :D Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trubey Posted March 21, 2005 #142 Share Posted March 21, 2005 We will volunteer to do the art work and the web site. Give me your opinions and comments in your next few posts. In pre-planning our website, I'd like to throw out a few ideas: (1) Do we want links for our actual e-mail addresses or would we prefer coded ones (to avoid spam from web crawlers)? (2) Shall we include individual photos of our group? (3) Shall we include a "who we are" section? Susan. p.s. Last week I finally decided to add an avatar to our profile. It was a toss-up between what you see above and Victoria below—who actually is a male donkey that we had for a year or so. Some mornings I'm not sure which represents me better.

FlorenceItaly Posted March 21, 2005 #143 Share Posted March 21, 2005 Susan - What a generous offer. Thanks so much. I like the idea of the individual photos. That will help us recognize one another. We have done that for my Sept CC cruise. The who we are section sounds good too. I am undecided on the email. Personally, I don't have a problem with putting mine out there, but many may, and I do understand. Marie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeatherInFlorida Posted March 21, 2005 Author #144 Share Posted March 21, 2005 I agree the emails have to be a personal choice. I have mine in my signature here and I have had no problems at all. But it is not my regular address, it is a screen name that I set up specifically for CC. I am so excited about all these great ideas! Susan, what a generous offer! Maybe you can make a collage of photos in the form of a ship!!!:D I'M KIDDING!!!! Brian, it's true that review talked about extra people, but I don't think there were more than 2 or 3 extras from what I could see. Two or three extra people coming and going from a cabana and 10 to 20 are quite a different thing. Ziggy can be our official Cabana Girl!!! She can work out the logistics and report back to us. Ziggy, for Brian's sake we have to at least include the "pink" cabana;) Is the pink near the yellow? It would be great to be at the far end of the beach ... just take over that whole area! I can't believe all you guys posting in the middle of the night!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeatherInFlorida Posted March 21, 2005 Author #145 Share Posted March 21, 2005 I have the names of 3 people who voted for the 10/29 and 11/12 cruises and did not post. I had said I would assume anyone not posting was fine with both dates so I'd really love to hear from you as to whether you're still interested in this cruise. If you're not comfortable posting you can always email me at [email="HeathersIsland@aol.com"]HeathersIsland@aol.com[/email]. I want to get a initial number for our group. Here are the names: bellebaby, brfan, and JohnR49er. Anyone else know these folks? Let me know:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Himself Posted March 21, 2005 #146 Share Posted March 21, 2005 So far there are 20 voting for the Eastern Caribbean on the WESTERDAM. You know there is another group trying to get an "alternative" to Hawaii on the ZANDAM in October 2006. Let's see how both go!!! Himself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeatherInFlorida Posted March 21, 2005 Author #147 Share Posted March 21, 2005 Himself, the poll was closed and decided last week to do the 10/29/05. You may notice I posted about the Hawaiian and Alaskan alternative cruises above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
