revneal -- have a wonderful cruise!

[rkacruiser]

revneal,

 

Another wish for a Bon Voyage! I hope you will have a wonderful and safe trip. Just don't expect the Zaandam's Atrium Organ to play "Amazing Grace".:D

[RevNeal]

But will it play a Bach Toccata??? :)

 

Thanks, again, to all for their well-wishes.

[Lovebirds]

Have a good trip, Rev, and don't forget the fishing equipment:D

[RuthC]

Packing a blender?

[Lovebirds]

Iron? Hair dryer? Bungee cord?

[Sue's Mom]

Have a wonderful cruise.

[TylerRose]

Have a wonderful time. I'll keep enjoying the East Texas allergies and humidity and think of you and smile because you escaped it!

[RevNeal]

:)

No blender

No fishing equipment

No cows for fresh meat

 

....

 

Wow, that was a fun thread! :D

[marybeach]

Have a great trip Rev! I can't wait to hear about the new beds, the sheets, the pillows............

 

Oh, maybe we already did that thread ..... but I'm sure Greg can give us even more details!

 

Sweet dreams!!!! Happy sailing!

[imsulin]

Hey, Greg...the Zaandam is my favorite HAL ship, and I know you will love it!! Hope you will get to perform services, and just remember what my Mom taught us when we were learning how to genuflect: "Spectacles, test*****, wallet, and watch"....in that order. (Hope this doesn't get poofed.....

 

Have a wonderful time, Rev!!

[SacDr]

SacDr wishes you a m,ost happy cruise. We have to wait until 6 December.

Cheers,

Ben

LOL ... I haven't heard that in YEARS! :D

As for chaplain duties ... not this time. As far as I know, there's a Catholic and a Protestant chaplain assigned. I had to pay full rate. :eek:

[imsulin]

Well, since you'll be gone over Yom Kippur, I can give you a quick lesson in Hebrew, and you could certainly use some "atoning"!

[Lois R]

Greg, Wanting to wish you a wonderful cruise.....and smooth sailing, in all the ways that count the most:)

 

Oh, I forgot to mention on the Z last week, it was the first night of Rosh Hashanna. There was a Rabbi on board and he led a service which looked quite full to me.

Must have been alot of members of "The Tribe" on the cruise.;)

[bobpatj]

Have a wonderful cruise and since we can't go along, we'll look forward to hearing all about it and seeing your wonderful pictures.

[LoveLifeAtSea]

Rev ....

 

Wishing you a wonderfully safe and blessed cruise!

 

Have a joyful, relaxing, fun, cruise filled with sunny skies and calm blue seas!

[Lisa63]

Bon voyage, revneal!

[the2ofus]

Have a wonderful trip and please report in detail. This is the next itinerary we hope to take. Have done the partial transit but want to do the whole thing.

 

Enjoy every minute and return rested and re-charged. Bon Voyage!!

[RevNeal]

Well, since you'll be gone over Yom Kippur, I can give you a quick lesson in Hebrew, and you could certainly use some "atoning"!

 

I'm sure there'll be a Rabbi aboard for Yom Kippur services, and I may even attend it -- I've attended Jewish services on special occasions when a Rabbi is aboard; my Biblical Hebrew is a little rusty (sadly, I don't use it as much as I use my Biblical Greek), but I manage well enough without butchering the benyon too terribly much. ;)

[Vicar]

NO Blender

No Fishing Gear

No Cows

 

"Like Robinson Crusoe, Its primitive as can be" *LOL*

 

 

Rev, have a great time, and a safe trip :)

 

Looking foward to your review when you get back

 

 

ENJOY!!!!!!!!!

[HeatherInFlorida]

Bon Voyage, RevNeal ... we will miss you and look forward to your return and your review. May you enjoy quiet seas and happy times:)

[RedmondCruiser]

Did the PC Zaandam in 2002 and had a great time. Though on a three week cruise there will be very little, if any, fish bait at club HAL - but then again, if that depresses you theres always Wang Wang's available at the Crows Nest. Please do a post as to what monitary upgrade offers look like at the pier. Have a good time.

[RevNeal]

Thank you so much, my friends. I'm ALMOST finished with my final preperations. I just need to run 2 or 3 more errands, take my Basset Hound to my parents, and make a couple of final hospital visits to ailing church members, and I'm DONE. :) :)

[Krazy Kruizers]

Have a wonderful cruise.

Looks like we will finally meet you next year on the Veendam???

[debsea]

Have a wonderful cruise, Revneal. Keep the Zaandam pristine for Grannynurse and me. We board with our DHs on December 28.
