Hi All,
I probably won't be that active in this thread, considering there are already 19 pages!

Georgie - sorry to hear about your loss; my condolances.

I rebooked while on my first cruise last August, and yesterday changed the reservation to the Long Beach - Vancouver repo.
Unfortunately I was laid off two weeks after my last cruise, so I need another job before I can say I am definitely on this cruise. If anybody needs an IT person, please let me know. I am willing to relocate - preferably to Orlando

A couple of notes:
In one post I saw somebody asking about gardens. Buchart Gardens north of Victoria will be beautiful during our visit; I highly recommend it. Just south of where I live, about 50 miles south of the Canadian border heading towards Seattle, is the Skagit Valley - which supposedly grows more tulip bulbs each year than Denmark does. In early May it will be too late for tulips, but Irises may be in bloom - check www.tulipfestival.org.

And a few people mentioned Lombard Street in San Francisco. Here's the lazy person's way to see it:
I expect we'll be at Pier 35 in San Francisco, which I believe is across Embarcadero from Bay St. Get on the F line streetcar at the Bay & Embarcadero station, heading in either direction. If heading north, get off at Jones St and walk two blocks west to Ghirardhelli Square and the Hyde & Beach cablecar turnaround. If heading south, get off at 5th & Powell, walk across the street, and get on a cablecar going to Hyde & Beach. This route goes up Russian Hill, and has a stop at the top of the curvy section of Lombard St. The Powell & Market run will give you a view of Lombard from the bottom of Russian Hill.
A Muni visitor passport will cost $11 for one day, $18 for three days, and covers the buses, streetcars, and cable cars.

Additionally, from the F line's Stockton stop you can get bus 39 which will take you to Coit Tower for a nice view of this part of the city.

Hope to see you all in about 19 months!

Good Morning All!!!

I've updated the Roster... just go to the first page of our thread and select the link. I would post it here... but have to leave work early.

My Aunt passed away this morning... 100 years old! WOW... a whole century. Joe and I have lots to do to help out. I am so glad I stopped by Sunday night to see her and hold her hand. She squeezed it so I know she knew I was there.

awww, I'm so sorry for your loss! My deepest condolences (and prayers) for you and your family.
100yrs is amazing though and I'm glad you were able to see her again before she passed. I know it meant a lot to you and I'm sure it did to her too. *hugs*

Well, now that it's "official" I can proudly tell the world that I'm going to be a grandma...again!!! GB2 (grandbaby 2) is due next April.

Congratulations!!!!!!!!

If you are willing to relocate to the Great White North, let me know. We are currently looking for IT people. Unfortunately our weather isn't as warm as Orlando! PM me if you are interested. I don't make the decisions, but can forward on the info to those who do.

[bonzie1]

Hi Linda!

It would be fun if Ducky could get on at least one of these cruises... either the Repo of the Alaskan!!!

 

[bonzie1]

Leave the country and did they drop Seattle????

They probably heard us all singing the Theme Song to "Here Come the Brides" on the 3 night cruise at our table and didn't want us stopping there!!!

Thanks Georgie.

The Roster will be an external webpage that can be accessed from a link on the first page of the Repo or Alaskan cruise threads.
This page will have additional information as we go along.

Like she said, you can send any additional information or corrections by PM.
If you would like a photo-link on the roster, you can send a link to the picture to us or e-mail the picture to us at DCLAlaskaCruise@aol.com.

The picture can be any format (i.e. gif, jpeg, png) and any size.
It should be large enough to see and I will re-size it to fit the screen if it is too large. Ideal size would be 600x800 pixels. If you send a picture, it will stored on photobucket.
