Boytjie Posted February 6, 2013 Author #651 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Done packing! Two roller bags, one duffel for carry-on, a backpack for carry on and a computer bag. AND it has our tuxes, including my formal shoes. Just have to go to work Wednesday, come home, change and take car service to La Guardia for our 7:30 PM flight See you all in Ft. Lauderdale or on the ship. Safe travels and I hope the potential storm Friday does not disrupt anyone's flights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gimme_woof Posted February 6, 2013 #652 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Can you fly out earlier?! US airlines allow changes without charging fees when there are storms threatening air traffic. We did that 3 years ago. We'll probably try - it looks like there's a limited selection of flights down to Fort Lauderdale and they seem full up for now. After the latest forecast, we're going to wait and see what comes down. At the very worst, we have Friday and even early Saturday to get an alternate flight.

STRSSD Posted February 6, 2013 #654 Share Posted February 6, 2013 Is anyone staying at the Worthington/Alcazar/Villa Venice? This is the largest gay resort in FLL with 3 pools. We are at the Alcazar which is supposedly the quietest of the 3. We are! Also in the Alcazar! We'll be arriving tonight! Best description for me, tall skinny white boy! (and I mean WHITE! The one time in my life I'm too busy to get my ass in for a pre-tan! You better break out your sunglasses!! LOL!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one time in my life I'm too busy to get my ass in for a pre-tan! You better break out your sunglasses!! LOL!) Since a number of us will be in Fort Lauderdale on Thurs. evening would you like to meet up for a drink between 7-9 PM at Tropic's on Wilton Drive, in Wilton Manor? Frankie the bartender at the main bar by the dining room is from Philly and makes the best drinks. They are 2-4-1 until 9:00 PM. Ten of us are having dinner at 8:30 PM Friday evening at Rosie's also on the Drive in Witlon Manor. Most of us more mature types but a couple of hotties too.

gimme_woof Posted February 6, 2013 #658 Share Posted February 6, 2013 The weather predictions I have seen are talking more about Friday into Saturday, are you getting different reports? It's been changing (hallelujah!). Last night it was "snow all afternoon, 15-20 cm, breakout the parkas, call in the Mounties and form search parties." Right now it has indeed changed back to something more like light snow over a long period. We're cautiously optimistic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typhoon1 Posted February 7, 2013 #663 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Just wanted to say hi and can't wait to see you all on th cruise! It's going to be a blast! Xoxo Welcome to CC. Looking forward to seeing you Friday night at the Royal Palms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ConradMZ Posted February 7, 2013 #664 Share Posted February 7, 2013 One more tall guy (6'5" / 1.98 m) checking into the Alcazar tomorrow night, though I am not on the RSVP cruise (though I do have a friend staying somewhere else who will be joining you on board). My partner and I are on the Pied Piper cruise leaving FLL on Monday instead. Probably pretty tired when we check in around 7 pm (1 am German time), so might be more likely to be encountered at 5 am or so when I am waking up and you are getting back from the bars or cavorting around the pool/hot tubs. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BayAreaBC Posted February 7, 2013 #665 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Friday winter storm Nemo is supposed to hit the Northeast USA. I hope most people are flying out before then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
absolutboy20 Posted February 8, 2013 #666 Share Posted February 8, 2013 Well most of you are already in Fort Lauderdale and or in route. Just wanted to say have an AMAZING time, stay safe, and calm waters for HMC! Hope to see you on the next cruise. I will try to get on the Port Everglades webcam on Saturday to watch the sail away and the gang in the SC cabin. Let us know what the new itinerary is going to be when you get back.

Boytjie Posted February 9, 2013 Author #674 Share Posted February 9, 2013 Good morning RSVP cruisers! It looks like the Eurodam is docked at Pier 22 this morning, not where we usually embark at Pier 26. But not to panic, it's just down the street. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
