fatcattravel Posted December 1, 2013 #51 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Dave if you have time to talk to anyone who goes to the Enclave I would love to hear if they think the price is worth it. I really didn't want to sign up all week but heard you may not get a day pass due to limited availability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Woobstr112G Posted December 1, 2013 #61 Share Posted December 1, 2013 All this out pouring of appreciation has never been more deserved so let me add mine. I followed your thread for a long time when we were planning our maiden TA and the ship was like an old acquaintance when I boarded her in October. This cruise for you has been a long time coming and I am sure you are going to have the time of your life. Bon voyage. Couldn't have said it any better:). Dave, I'm sure you will have one hell of a cruise.....:):):) Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisingpeople Posted December 1, 2013 #63 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Dave, As everyone else has stated, have a fantastic and safe cruise. The months that we have "spent" with you has been like a journey to Wonderland and now it is your turn to relax and enjoy the trip. I know you will cherish every moment on the ship. Also, don't forget to stop by the photo gallery and pick up your package that Larry, (#1 winelover) left for you. Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homeinboca Posted December 1, 2013 #64 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Let me add my sincere wishes for a great cruise to you Dave. What an outpouring of appreciation for you in this thread. I don't think I've ever seen that before on CC, but then again no one deserves it more than you. Thank you again for all you do on this community and have a wonderful time on board the fabulous Royal Princess. Ron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmwnc1959 Posted December 1, 2013 #65 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Already about 50 people in line waiting to get in... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmwnc1959 Posted December 1, 2013 #66 Share Posted December 1, 2013 So about 10:15 the Princess rep opens the flood gates and tells everyone to have their Preferred Boarding Passes ready. We had already been handed the 'I promise I'm not sick' forms and the check-in for Preferred went real quick. Now we are sitting in a little area off to the side of the main hall, and near the back, waiting for the embarkation to begin, maybe in the next hour?

dmwnc1959 Posted December 1, 2013 #71 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Just met one of the guys from the 'acrobatic feats if strength' act from last year on Ruby Princess. They are on this cruise for three days only, the getting off the ship in St. Thomas. He said they were then going to the Emerald Princess. The woman loved them. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mom33 Posted December 1, 2013 #73 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Dave, I am curious to know if you are using your phone for theses pics or a 35mm. They are so clear and your close ups are sharp. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmwnc1959 Posted December 1, 2013 #74 Share Posted December 1, 2013 The first pictures of the ship prior to me getting to the Terminal were using my camera, the rest have been with my iPhone. ;) Also just met two wonderful ladies (Geneva and Liz), who approached me and asked 'Are you David?' They've never posted on Cruise Critic yet lurk as non-members. It was amazing because they recognized from the picture I posted of myself on the 'Everything' thread. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
