ChuckandScott Posted April 15, 2012 #103 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Sorry! :p I'm leaving in less than 3 weeks aboard NCL Epic for a Western Mediterranean cruise - can't wait! Taking the same cruise but sadly 1 month after you Atilla. I can't wait to hear all about your trip and what to do/not do. Are you staying pre or post cruise in Barcelona? We are going a couple days early to enjoy the city for the first time. Have done Rome before but not any of the other ports on this itinerary and VERY excited to explore the Naples, Florence & Monte Carlo areas!

Lipz Posted April 15, 2012 #104 Share Posted April 15, 2012 Hi Dana and Sharine - Your wedding photos are so lovely! You both look so happy in the pictures. I can't think of a better place to get married than a ship. I hope to meet you on the 20th - it will be great to hear your story in person.:) Thanks. Although most of the CC users that I've met on here and who marry on board a cruise ship seem to choose Carnival, we believe Norwegian did an excellent job. We were very happy with the outcome but I must say even if you love cruising, a cruise ship wedding is not for everyone. For those who need to have total control and need answers like yesterday, then a cruise ship wedding would just be stress waiting to happen. The best part of it all though was cruising with 12 of our closest family and friends right after the wedding. It was my first group cruise and I really enjoyed it. I am looking forward to our second group cruise this upcoming August and we actually have double the guest. More than likely we won't be at meet-n-greet this week but we hope you have a great turn out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you staying pre or post cruise in Barcelona? We are going a couple days early to enjoy the city for the first time. Have done Rome before but not any of the other ports on this itinerary and VERY excited to explore the Naples, Florence & Monte Carlo areas! We will be in Barcelona for 2 days pre-cruise. None of my family has visited any of these ports and with the exception of me, this will be all of their first times to set foot in Europe! I think the ports sound fantastic, but I'm nervous that we'll be exhausted after such long days. Living in the Midwest, the rest of my family isn't used to walking that much either, so we'll see how far we get :) I don't know if I'll have the energy to post a full cruise review afterwards, but feel free to let me know your email address and I'd love to trade some tips before and after!

Boytjie Posted April 17, 2012 #106 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I wonder how many of us are going to be there Friday. :) Should we check with Uncle Charlie's just to let them know a group of us plan on meeting there, just in case they have something else planned?

ChuckandScott Posted April 18, 2012 #107 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Put us on the guest list! Should be there right around 6 as we are only 17 blocks away. Anyone else making it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornus Posted April 18, 2012 #108 Share Posted April 18, 2012 My partner [brent] and I [Jack] hope to make this meet-up too. Heading back to NJ Friday morning, have lots of chores to do, and hope to be there @ 6:00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HLR Posted April 18, 2012 #109 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Unfortunately I can't make it as I am working...but is this just a couples thing? It sounds like it...and I'm a single... HLR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HLR No, it's a cruise thing! ;) It seems that many attending are coupled (my partner may show up) but singles are just as welcome as couples (or moresomes).

HLR Posted April 18, 2012 #111 Share Posted April 18, 2012 Well yea! Hopefully this will turn into something and I can make the next one! I am sailing in July on RCL with two friends out of Baltimore...will be teaching Ballroom classes. Howard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastSideGuy Posted April 18, 2012 #112 Share Posted April 18, 2012 I will be there. My friends Alan and Noel may be there as well. Note to Howard (HLR) - also single here, so you're not the only one. :) - Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickinNYC Posted April 19, 2012 #113 Share Posted April 19, 2012 (edited) I should be there with my other half in tow. So we're meeting at Uncle Charlies at 6pm at 139 East 45th Street, correct? Never been there. Will it be busy enough at Happy Hour that it will be difficult to find one another? If so, and you happen to see a 6'4" half Scottish/Irish and half Japanese dude wandering aimlessly about, tap me on the shoulder!

RickinNYC Posted April 20, 2012 #119 Share Posted April 20, 2012 (edited) Bugs Bunny: "Unga bunga binga inga binga binga bunga!" I'll def be there. Still don't know whether my partner will be available; he's grading a ton of state exams (teacher). I have NO idea how to identify you folks, so I'll just look for those that have "Cruise Critic" stamped on their foreheads and hope for the best! See you all at 6.

Boytjie Posted April 21, 2012 #121 Share Posted April 21, 2012 A fun evening at Uncle Charlie's with about 12 of us attending. It was really nice meeting everyone and putting a face to the CC id. And to find out that someone lived on our block in Brooklyn! We should do this again soon. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastSideGuy Posted April 21, 2012 #122 Share Posted April 21, 2012 I agree with Peter - it was a very good time. It was a really nice group of gentlemen, and I would look forward to meeting again. Happy sailing to all. - Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pke-atlanta Posted April 21, 2012 #123 Share Posted April 21, 2012 So sorry not to be able to make it last night. Will look out for the next one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornus Posted April 21, 2012 #124 Share Posted April 21, 2012 Enjoyed meeting everyone last night. Maybe the next meet-up should be a cruise that we all book? ;) As I mentioned last night, QM2 sails from Brooklyn, so that's really convenient for several of you.
