Merry Christmas and a very happy and safe New Year to all!

 

We're planning on the 14 night PD cruise leaving 17 August. Mum will be coming too, which will be great. It looks like everyone has a fantastic variety of cruises planned for the next year or so. I hope everything goes according to plan for everyone, and that we all have a wonderful time! :D:D:D

Currently talking prices with our travel agent for taking the family [10 adults 4 kids] on the Christmas Cruise on the new Pacific Jewel in 09

[MargnGrah]

Hi Everyone,

 

Grah and I are off the the South Pacific on Pacific Dawn, again in May, and taking his sister (a widow, who would never holiday by herself let alone go on a cruise) so we are hoping she will love cruising as much as us and we will take her on another cruise in 2010.:p

We are also booked on Dawn Princess for a cruise that travels up to PNG before going to Pacific Islands. This cruise also goes to Champagne Bay and we have heard such good reports of there so can't wait to go there..:rolleyes:

 

Anyway HAVE A GREAT CHRISTMAS TO ALL CC'ers and hope that the NEW YEAR IS WONDERFUL .:D:):):D

Hi S & D if there is one thing I have learnt reading you guys is that I am not going on my cruise without trying a Raspberry Fizz.

 

Happy Christmas

[S&D]

OOOOH!!...I'm all excited reading about everyone's up coming cruises - and cruise wish list...:)..we sure have a badly addicted group of cruise- a- holics on this board.....:eek::D

 

 

Hope to meet some of you on the ocean one day, and share a raspberry fizz or 3....;)

 

 

S&D

[pandigirl]

RFDS Charity Cruise on Rhapsody in April

Pacific Dawn in July (my 3 year old's first cruise & she is already excited...I wonder where she got that from :confused:).

[Flipper133]

As many will know 2008 has been our "Annus Horobilus" :mad:

 

We are now looking forward to finihing off the year with some Christmas Merriment, and particularly our cruise next April/May :o

 

I sincerely hope all our friends on these boards have an enjoyable Christmas break and that your future cruises are every thing you hope for.

 

With the greatest compliments of the season

[jingles83]

Merry Christmas and a Happy 2009 to everyone on CC.

 

As for us we are off on the Pacific Sun in September 09, week fantastique. Also doing the tour/lunch in January (does that count).

 

Looking at 2009 Christmas/New Year cruise to NZ.

 

Also like the idea of getting on the relocation of Pacific Sun to Perth, (will keep my eyes/ears open for that one, seeing I was born in WA, want to take my kids there).

 

Ooh, did I mention, also going to win that big $30million Lotto on January 3, 2009, so don't bother buying a ticket, it's all mine so I can travel forever, cruise/plane/train/automobile anything. aaaahhhhhh:D

[fairywren]

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

[Alessandrina]

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all from The Great White North - CANADA! I want to add that it is -25C here with tons of snow.

 

Hope for a cruise in the Caribbean in 2009 on Caribbean Princess.

Cheers. :)
