Leaving for Zuiderdam western and eastern this friday early am, we have a stay over the night before we embark on Sat.
So if there are any questions you would like to know, I will check them out on this 14 day cruise and answer them when I return, Our ports of call will be Key West, Cozumel, Grand Cayman, HMC, Tortola, St. Thomas, St. John, Nassau.

You all have been so helpful to this first time cruiser, I would like to return the favor ! And I will be lifting my morning coffee on the verandah to you all! I couldnt imagine what kind of a cruise we would have had without all the information we recieved on here !
So again Thanks Everyone! :cool:

Ziggy please have a wonderful time. I would like to ask a favor if I could. If your swimming or at the Aft Pool area can you go to the railing and look down 2 decks and check out the verandah for me. We planned a get together for 10 and booked 4 Cat A 7126,7127,7128,7129 and a cat K. Our friends have asked me if there is cover or are we in full sun area.........I can't answer them. I was told these verandah's are very large and I know people can looked down on us. If you can remember to do this I would love it. Thanking you ahead and have a great time. We will be there Sept. 4th so I can't wait for your review.

These triple-sized verandas are in full sun and can be easily viewed from the Lido deck, but we never noticed anyone spying on us. The photo link in my .sig may give you some idea about the view. Your cabins should be directly above mine.

Have a wonderful cruise Alison...happy for you :).

There are many names, Marie....MANY! :D It would take a pretty strong crowbar to get the all important one out of me though. ;)

Hey...isn't there a separate forum for this kind of discussion??? :)

Not really sure when and where that next one will be just yet but it's still a long way off so lots of time to decide. :)

August 5th, 2004, 06:53 PM
Alison,:) you know we are just teasing....(I hope you know)...If you have a guy on board...good for you...
What you do is nobody else's concern.....live it down? LOL...I know what its like to have a friend on board...so, I am the last person to judge!

And I agree with Marie...I bet we would all have fun on a ship together!

Oh I know you're just teasing and it doesn't bother me in the slightest. :) It's just one of those "one day at a time" type things but you never know what the future will bring right?

So Lois....are you going to spill the dirt about YOUR onboard relationship??? :D

And yes, I think we would all have a blast on the same ship....maybe that's something to think about for 2005?

Nope!;)

And I have to sail the Z first...before I commit to HAL again for 2005...I am sure you can understand that:) ....but it does sound fun!

I somehow sense some juicy details that you are keeping back, Lois. ;)

Lois R

What happens on the ship..stays on the ship......:)

Me too....even if I fell hopelessly in love with Celebrity, there is no way I could bring myself to pay those solo prices......ridiculous.

Ziggy, have an absolutely fabulous time:) !! I'll be thinking of you. Love to hear about Tortola. I'm very interested in a beach called Long Bay (West End) that looks amazing. But I'd love to hear what you do or what you hear others enjoyed. If you have time tonight, you might want to take a look at this site. Click on Long Bay (West End) for a look at a fabulous beach!! Tortola Maps: Interactive Map of Tortola, BVI - The British Virgin Islands Tourist Board (http://www.bvitouristboard.com/tortola/tor-map.htm)

And lastly, did you rent that turquoise cabana for your second visit to Half Moon???;)

Bon Voyage and stay safe. Don't worry about that storm! These guys know how to go around all sorts of things.

Hubby and I are doing only hal tours as this is our first cruise, we feel its best to play it safe, also hubby has a bad leg so he walks slower than most but not too slow LOL but I'm afraid we will miss the ship til his leg heals LOL
Well ..... errrrrr ...... ok ok they didnt have the turquoise cabana for that cruise sooooooooo we got the sky blue one, after all its newly remodled! Oh and great link thanks!
Have all my stuff sitting out in the livingroom waiting for the packing fairy to arrive! Oh wait, its too late for that LOL guess what I'm doing tonight :)

Be good everyone !!!
