Cruise Critic was quick enough to nab some coveted "group space" on board John Heald's upcoming "Blogger's Cruise" on Carnival Freedom sailing from Miami on January 19, 2008.

 

John Heald's Blogger's Cruise Info - Member Cruise Info

 

We've obtained great rates on this sailing just to ensure a fantastic showing on board from Cruise Critic. After all, *you are* the voice of cruising on the Internet, aren't you??

 

So, will you be there??

Funny you should mention that......why I have the same deal two weeks before!:p :D

 

Actually, if I went on both and then I have another group in march on Freedom....I should just hire on as John's assistant and stay aboard!;)

Randy,

 

I'll sign on as a blogging RN for January through March in case any of the various bloggers need medical assistance. You can assist John and I'll assist those who fall ill trying to keep up! :D

Ok now I am MAD...I booked 8 of us with a Military discount for 1/12/08 Eastern Caribbean Cruise on the Freedom. Now I see there is one for the group the week before AND the week after...no I can't sail BOTH or all 3...lol. Someone needs to make a group cruise for THESE dates. What is the rate for your dates? I got 3 adjoining balconies with the military discount and 8 of us for $700pp. I am sooooo excited.

Can anyone offer ideas for excursions off Carnival or on for St Maarten or St Thomas?

Is Ron Pass still going to be on the Freedom for this cruise? If not, does anyone know where he'll be after the trans-Atlantic in November? Thinking seriously of jumping on this one and Ron Pass in the piano bar would make it just that much sweeter.

Hi all... "Ciao" From the Freedom!

 

I thought I'd update you on what I may be doing after this contract ends. John Heald, our Cruise Director here, as well as Cruise Director Todd Whitmer, who will be filling in during John's vacation (starting late Oct for the trans-Atlantic) have expressed their interest in having me come back to the Freedom. I'd very much like to to that, so I have put in a request to Carnival to come back to the Freedom after a short break on land in November. Maybe return around early December? Not sure yet. And this still has to be approved by Carnival. If approved, I'll likely stay on board until early May, so I can be home for my neice's wedding.

 

Perhaps I'll see you all this coming winter!

Ron.....the WHEELS are already in motion!

 

Cannot say anything at the moment, but rest assured EVERYONE is working on having Carnival's No 1 Piano Man on board the Blogger's Cruise with JH and friends!!!

 

Hope to see you soon!

 

Best regards from Down-under:)
