bleuseas Posted August 25, 2009 #105 Share Posted August 25, 2009 So glad to see you pulled it off and it took them so long to figure it out! Too funny. We do things like this with my kids all the time. They usually figure it out or assume we're surprising them with something even when we're not. Glad it worked out for you & they had a great trip...feel better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruisinEars Posted August 25, 2009 #109 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I was lurking on this thread too. I am so glad you were able to pull off the surprise. I would love to surprise our kids, but I just can't keep a secret like that. :D My kids love to cruise as much as we do and love to help in the planning and outfit shopping.

SCUBA Mark Posted August 25, 2009 #112 Share Posted August 25, 2009 This is a great story. We met a family on a cruise that had their sister's family visiting for 2 weeks. On the first day they arrived, they told them to not unpack because they were going on a surprise 1 week cruise the next day (out of Galveston also). Wouldn't that be a nice surprise.

alwayshappytocruise Posted August 25, 2009 #115 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Tough day at work but oh did you make me smile and I got goosebumps too!! Hope you feel better soon. My sister did this for my nephew when he was 10, on a Disney ship....the rest of the family was already on-board....being the great kid he is they had to tell him in the parking lot what was going on 'cos he was afraid they'd get in trouble walking into the terminal. When they told him he just couldn't believe it, then my sister said he got a real sad look on his face...they asked what was wrong and he said he couldn't go, he didn't have any clothes!! Now this kid is a cool 16 y/o surfer but still remembers that special day!! Lynda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayesouthworth Posted August 26, 2009 #122 Share Posted August 26, 2009 What a great idea!! You won't have a problem, make sure you DH puts the luggage tags on the luggage BEFORE he gives them to the baggage handler. You will have a great time and what a surprise!
