10-Oct-2009 - Eastern Magic St. Croix

[PaigerPoo]

Oo..lots of us planning to go. WE should make it a group thing. More fun in numbers!


Another thought for everyone: Are we planning to meet on the ship? Are we going to wear anything on the date of sail to distinguish ourselves to each other?

How bout we meet up at the Rockin D sometime on the 1st or 2nd day? With this group, meeting at the bar sounds appropriate!!

Oh, and Imonaboat...i have to tell you how I was scolded at my muster station on our 1st cruise for calling the Wonder a "boat". The officer said, "If you call this SHIP a BOAT again I will personally put you on the life BOAT and you can paddle back to Port Canaveral!! (Of course it was with half a smile...but i never called it a boat again!) I promise, I wont let em put you in the lifeboat!!!

At this point, you'll be able to pick us out of the crowd EASY. Unless he has a miraculous recovery, Chad, My DH, wont be getting out of the cast on his arm till after the cruise. It'll be waterproof and I plan on draggin him all over MNSSHP & ship for autographs...oh how he's lookin forward to it!
I just think it'll be a GREAT souvenier!

oh chad, im sorry my man haha dont forsee us hitting MNSSHP, but who knows maybe epcot, or maybe just sleeping, being locals we see the parks quite often

well for the sake of humor i will likely be wearing a shirt saying "IM ON A BOAT" i feel it is only appropriate...any opinions? heh

Capt Jack Sparrow refers to ship as a "boat"!

I am all for meeting at the/a bar.

We could all post photos of ourselves so we can become a little more familiar with each other?

For those of us going to MNSSHP, do we want to plan to meet and say hello? Maybe ride Pirates together?? We could set sail before we set sail!

 

[SoccrMom]

Sweeeeet! Many a good friendship has started with RUM!
We may be needing a mini van!!

I want in, but don't ask me to remember anything after a couple of those yummy rum drinks.

All we need to remember is the ship we're on and what time we're supposed to be back but we can set reminders on cell phones for that!

 

[cnktruitt]

Count us in tooooo!

[PaigerPoo2]

Oh & yeah, my ID on here is different now, BUT ITS STILL ME! I dont know why but I got booted! Then I couldnt remember my old email. Then it told me I wasnt inserting the 2 word string and then....ahhh, phooey, I just made up a new id!

I'm on FB but I don't believe you can search me, it's blocked. Try Jac Blair.

Watch out St. Croix! Or at least the rum distillery and the unknown bar we plan to take over!

 

[imonaboat]

a few quotes come to mind at this point...

"yo ho, yo ho, a pirates life for me"

"but why is the rum always gone?" (reply soon to be...because we were in town)

and last, but not least....

"alcohol...the cause of...and solution to all of lifes problems!"

36 days!!

That is awesome!! We are still waiting...but it is good to know they have started the process.

 

[bluecasbah]

We're a GTY Cat 9 and still waiting. I want my room number!

Update: I went online and I'm in room #2542. It's fun having a room number. Makes it feel so much more real!

Do you know what just occurred to me? St. Croix is Pirate party night. So..we can really whoop it up with the rum!!

They say you have a twin somewhere in the world. My DH doesn't have a bike but he would love one. I refuse to give in, just yet.
