You might look at the Jan. 27th cruises. They are Foremast Club sailings and have significant savings for anyone that has sailed with Windstar before.

We will not be joining you afterall

we opted to go to Costa Rica on the Windstar instead to try something different.

Have a great trip-we LOVED it!

nancy

Anyone else booked or are we alone??

ML

Still hoping we are not alone.

I'm not on your cruise, but we will be departing the very next day on the Windsurf out of Barbados. I'm enjoying your countdown clock!

I have noticed that it's not as easy to find fellow cruisers on this board, maybe because the ships are so small. Is this your first Windstar? We'll be on our second. We booked a second trip less than a month after we returned from the first. Previously, we had been on 2 Holland America cruises and 1 Carnival. I never say never,:rolleyes: , but, I don't think we'll be going back to the bigger ships.

Hi Beth

Yes, my first WindStar. I understand there is no comparison to the big ships. It certainly will be a drastic change from the Freedom of the Seas.

ML

Anyone else going with us?

ML

Still looking for anyone else that might be joining us.

formast cruise to costa rica on the 27th of january was fully booked so they opened up jan.20 as a foremast cruise. it will be our second windstar cruise . the first was in december-round trip st. thomas. it was phenomenal. we are trying our first big ship cruise on july 29 crown princess out of brooklyn. it should be some contrast!!

You picked a big one.

ML

Just checking. Anyone else joining us?

ML

We won't be joining you - but we will be on that same cruise the week before, departing 1/6/07. It will be my first cruise on Windstar and am looking forward to it.

It is my first time as well. Can't wait.

Have a great trip. Leave some good weather for us.

ML

As the trip gets closer maybe we can compare notes on shore excursions, etc. I haven't had a chance to think about that very much yet.

We are renting a car on St. John so we can explore the island. That is as much as I have decided.

ML

That makes you one step ahead of us! Though I have made a reservation for us to spend the night before the cruise at Frenchman's Reef.

On another thread I read that the America's Cup Regatta (St. Martin) is a lot of fun and I know my husband would enjoy that. So, that is one possibility.

I am in the middle of a big project for work right now, but by November I should have some time to start researching the ports more thoroughly. I like the independence that a rental car provides.

From your signature line it looks like you are cruising quite a bit.

You might look at the Jan. 27th cruises. They are Foremast Club sailings and have significant savings for anyone that has sailed with Windstar before.

:confused: Does anyone know the Wind Surf Foremast Schedule for January 2007. We are very interested in the Barbados to Barbados cruise.

Beth, we are leaving next month on the Wind Surf out of Barcelona and are very interested in the Barbados cruise next year is the one you are on a Formast sailing? I don't have a copy of the 2007 Formast Cruises. The savings are so great that I would like to plan our cruise around them.

Shirley

We are alos booked at the Frenchman's Reef the night before. Great minds.

Check on the Windstar internet site. They have the Foremast Club cruises identified through the first part of 2008.

In the past, I have had a hard time getting the Foremast rates to come up on the Windstar site. Have had to call them to get the correct fare. Once I got the correct fare I was able to work with an internet agency to get a discount off the Foremast Club price.

WW-

Yes, our departure is a Foremast Sailing, and the fare was too good to pass up. It will be our second Windstar cruise, but the first on the Windsurf. We loved our trip last year on the Windstar, and we're hoping this ship will be as good.

The ONLY complaint we had was the DH's head hit the ceiling on all the exercise equipment in the gym. (I solved this problem by being 5'3" and avoiding the gym altogether!:D ) The Windsurf's gym looks a little more appealing, although in my opinion, its a trade off for the extra size and passenger load.

Why don't you join us?

Beth

Anyone else joining us?

I hear the ship is filling up quickly. Any CCers going with us?
