Greetings Fran & Anthony!

 

I didn't know you were the A Train. I haven't seen you since Lisbon a couple years ago. Glad to see you will be onboard this cruise! I am on for the first 19 days, and David Pitts is also onboard for the entire round the horn trip.

 

See you at the skybar.

 

Anyone else going????

[The A Train]

Hi Leslie. Too bad you're leaving as we get on in Valparaiso.

 

Martita, since you just departed the Pride, perhaps you can give us an update as to the officers and crew for the 74 day South America sailing. Thanks!!

Thanks Martita.

 

You will not miss us.......we're on for the "crossing" as well. And, we'll join you and the gang for the Belem sailaway on March 31st!

[Martita B.]

Great news as to your being on the March 18th TA Crossing!

The 2009 Crossing theme is, "The Last Hurrah " ~~~as you know the Pride will go to Asia and the Spirit comes to the America's next Nov. Many of the 'ole regular Pride Spring Crossers have booked......sooo I know it will be a magical, fun voyage!:p

JB and I will not be able to host the "Belem Pier" party as we are flying to Dublin when we disembark the ship on March 31st. We had planned to fly back to Funchal on the 31st and spend a week but our plans changed and we've postponed our stay on Madeira Island.

Have a wonderful time on the Pride and I'll see you in Ft Lauderdale on March 18th~~

Happy 2009

Great friends of mine will be on for the full 74 day cruise. Anyone sailing, please give Donna (Wild curly blonde hair and thin) and Jerry a big hug from me!
