Snow Road Cruisers Posted March 9, 2007 #2 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Thank you for the great information, we leave on the ship march 17. Do you recall who the Cruise director and who the Captain is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarronwood Posted March 9, 2007 Author #3 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Thank you for the great information, we leave on the ship march 17. Do you recall who the Cruise director and who the Captain is? Yes the Cruise Director is Alan King who is from Aberdeen in Scotland. He has a real funny accent, half Scot and half American. Now the Captain is a greek guy who lives here in England in a county called Norfolk. I cant remember his name but I am sure somebody will remember. If I get a moment to finish unpacking I will have a look through my Celebrity Todays and let you know. Hope you have a great cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare uktog Posted March 9, 2007 #4 Share Posted March 9, 2007 I think it sounds like the lovely Panagiotis Skylogiannis - he was due back on Summit early February Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josie, glad you posted your blog here, As i wrote to you, it was great. STEMIT1 the cabo tour was by: rissacat@prodigy.net.mx Write to Manuel, he will give you the info and availability. It was a lovely tour, and the cat was pristine. The crew also washed the limes before making the margaritas as well as washing the avacodos before making the guacamole.They took excellent care of us. The tour was $50 / person. Including lunch and beverages. Hope this helps Nadine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mommy Posted March 9, 2007 #7 Share Posted March 9, 2007 Hi Jarronwood Norfolk must breed great Captains and sailors. We were on Dawn Princess with a Captain from Norfolk called Bourgoine. We lived In Norfolk for 15 years and he lived quite close to where we were. He was a very nice man who took great delight in meeting as many passengers as possible during the cruise, he would pop into the bars and lounges and have little chats. Did your Captain do this? Glad you enjoyed your holiday- we are still looking forward to ours - not long now! Gail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mommy Posted March 9, 2007 #8 Share Posted March 9, 2007 I think it sounds like the lovely Panagiotis Skylogiannis - he was due back on Summit early February Does this mean he could be Captain on our cruise on Summit in April? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike also was very impressed with the quality of the cat, saying how spic and span it was. Mind you I wouldn't fancy "going to the toilet" down those stairs after a few drinks?

Rare PescadoAmarillo Posted March 17, 2007 #12 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Josie- I enjoyed your journal very much. Can you tell me how you contacted Jesus for your tour in Huatulco. We are leaving in 2 weeks for the same cruise, and would be interested in that type of boat tour. Thanks! Jeannie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarronwood Posted March 17, 2007 Author #13 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Hi Jeannie I never organised our tours. A lovely lady called Nadine (aka Motherchic) researched and contacted Jesus. I was very very lazy and let Nadine do it all. I am going to e mail her with a link to this post so that she can reply to you (just in case she does not read the main board).

motherchic Posted March 17, 2007 #15 Share Posted March 17, 2007 Thanks for the e-mail Josie. I had to go thru our roll call chat to find his address. Here it is: Jesus Vasquez (sharkv74@yahoo.com) PESCADO---hope you have a great cruise. Also good luck in contacting Jesus. Excellent tour!!
