Hello ALL!

This is going to be an amazing cruise!

:cool1: :cool1: :cool1: :cool1: :cool1: :cool1:

Who is joining us!?

We're there!
 

Hi,
I just switched our ressies to the 5/23 cruise! I've never been to any of these Islands (except for CC of course). We're excited!!! It will be me, dh, and our ds's ( 7 and 10 at the time of our cruise!). :cool1:
We were going to do the Western cruise for the next week, but the prices were $2000 more!!! We're happy to sail on the 5/23 date!:banana: :banana: :banana:

We're here with you Ron!! Can't wait to see you again! We were able to get a reclassified category 7 stateroom and I can't be more excited about this.

Tracy & Bill

Hi Ron!

Officially signing in........John and I are in 7120.....remember us from the Med cruise?

Hey Jeanne, your TA did great!! Got you a great cabin... Your favorite, right ? ;)
:lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

I'm excited about this cruise too! Can't wait to see the familiar faces and some new ones too (Nik's mom :goodvibes ).

Tracy

Hey all,
We are in too!!! This is going to be just great!!!:banana: :cool1:

Hi Jenn!! :lmao: :lmao:

MY TA IS AWESOME! :thumbsup2

Welcome, Nik's mom! This is a great group!

This is our first 7 day cruise. How much different is it from the 4 day cruise? Ugh, I haven't told dh about formal dinner yet.
What kind of activities are there to do on the ports we are visiting? Has anyone started their research?

Go to the Baths !!!!!

It is on Virgin Gorda!
will require a ferry ride!

Shopping at Pussers!!!!

Tracy will organize this trip like she did for the folks who did Rome on there own!
maybe this time we can get a T shirt! :lmao:

T will be phoning you this AM :santa:

Good luck with that :lmao: :lmao: We're leaving for WDW in 15 minutes :woohoo: :banana: :dance3:

Nik'sMom: if you enjoyed the 4-day cruise, you will LOVE the 7 day one!

It gives you time to relax and really enjoy being on the ship. With the 4 day, I always feel like I am just getting on and then have to think about getting off. Sea days are the best.....very relaxing, yet plenty of activities to choose from. I've been to St Thomas several times and may not even get off the ship....unless someone on this thread arranges a group activity! We used to buy cheap booze in the islands, but now with the new restrictions for liquids, we can't carry it on the plane so that's out. I'm sure the Carribean economy is hurting with that one.
We've never been to Tortola so that will be interesting. I'm not into planning anything for this trip yet as I have an even bigger one coming up in '08..... Several of us will be on the 15-day eastbound Panama Canal crossing.

We're booked on this one too. Looks like I see some familiar names already. :thumbsup2
