Hi! We are B2B cruisers! We have cabin#7520 on the repo and cabin#7020 on the Alaska. Thank for all of your hard work!! Looking forward to meeting you!! Karen and Ron

Thanks!! My list is up to date...whew...My OCD demands that I keep my FE stuff organized.

I have had my suitcases out and started packing when we got back from the last cruise

I never put them away Lynn!!! I simply washed everything, and put it in the spare closet - figured it is winter, I won't be needing cruise wear at home...Luggage is still in the bedroom (being moved from corner to corner as the painter was working!!)

What's the worst thing you have ever experienced / witnessed on a cruise?

Rude people...I was sailing with my SO (at the time...we have long since parted ways) and we were seated at a table of homophobes. For the first night all we heard was how horrible being gay is...we were horrified to say the least.

The father was roaring drunk and finally fell asleep in his dessert, the wife just kept yelling about how all homosexuals should be destroyed (as in killed), and the kids were throwing food all over the place. Now, I have to say - we simply looked like two women traveling together. No PDAs (public displays of affection). We didn't kiss, hug or hold hands...I do not think overt PDA's are acceptable in ANY relationship!

Needless to say - we asked for a new table assignment. So, the head server found us another table...apologized that the women at the table spoke no english...we shifted and found 3 of the most amazing ENGLISH SPEAKING ladies! They had been speaking Tagalog since they were alone at the table, as soon as we asked to join them - they switched to English...we had a wonderful trip. And the first table? They were cut off from the bars, and finally were asked to eat in their cabin. Disney made it right as far as I was concerned.

That's why I am glad to MEET people online ... and link reservations for dinner.

Tagalog

I think I remember watching a show on Travel Channel (Zimern? If it looks good, eat it?). I thought he was traveling somewhere, where they spoke Tagalog. If I remember correctly, that language is supposedly only spoken in two locations ... one being where the video was being filmed ... not sure of the 2nd location, but it could have been in the US?

The Phillipines...it is the primary languages spoken across all the islands.

I think I have sent pm's to everyone I need to. We will be on the B2B cruises and want to be part of the FE's and lanyards. It is just DH(Matt) and I (Jill). This will be my 5th and 6th cruise and DH's 3rd and 4th. We are very excited and I can't wait to leave. We will be flying in early on the 25th and spending 2 days at Disneyland before the cruise.

What's the worst thing you have ever experienced / witnessed on a cruise? Take a look at this thread (another forum). Granted, it is posted under CARNIVAL cruise lines ... but a few other cruise ships are mentioned. I am surprised (well, not really), now many posts there are about people being drunk ... smashed out of their minds. I guess it's because they realized they were on a CARNIVAL cruise ship!

On our last cruise in Oct., (RCCL) I got stung by bees twice onboard near the pool while anchored at Grand Cayman! The entire pool bar was covered with bees. I'm claiming they came off the pirate boat anchored a little way out from us!

Hey folks....sorry I've been MIA for a while....so crazy busy here and tons going on professionally (work is crazy crazy crazy here) and personally (our new puppy was born 1 week ago today----newborn yorkie puppy although we don't get him until late May....plus two friends acquaintances passed away in the past month! )

Anyhow....fish extender question....if I count correctly, there are 56 cabins (not including myself) on the list currently. Do we have a hard cut off date of when no more cabins will be added? or has it already passed? With just a little over a month before the trip, it's really time to knuckle down and figure out what we're going to get for fish extenders...but before we do, we want to make sure we have a reasonably accurate count so we can get the right amount of stuff.

 

[MAGICFOR2]

There is a new list on page 160, I think. I counted 60 then and I believe two more have been added. I agree - we need to have a cut-off at some point. I have already ordered some things, and I'm just going to do the best I can from here...
