11/28/2009 - 12/5/2009 - The Nana's Ride the Seas Again #4

[jd99]

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!!!

Whew, it's finally safe to post here now that the Insane Nana Postings have diminished! Can actually SEE conversations!

So I'm curious, of everyone posting on this board, how many are actually going on this cruise?

I think we may be the only ones.

Great one Brantley!!!! Although, I must say, I was replacing "Michigan" with "Ohio" in all the scenarios from 35 and above!

Hey Shell!!!!!!

We are still not booked on this cruise. Not sure if we will actually be sailing or not....

Brantley ... check your email. I'll send you info on the RCCL we're doing in November. Maybe you'd be interested! So far, including airfare and hotel in San Juan, we are saving $902 over a 7-night DCL!

Hey Kathy
Or anyone else who has been on a three nighter., What night is the Pirate Party? And what is the order of shows? Is it Golden Mickeys, Toy Story, Dreams? or something else...

OMG Brantley that 's funny. Even though we aren't THAT bad, I definitely can see a correlation!

Good Morning. Dreaming, dreaming Woke up to a balmy 5 and a wind chill of -14. I feel a little better--now it's moved Eastward! Greg, we are suppose to see 30 next week for a couple of days! Storm warnings out now that's warmed up only 4 more inches expected!

Have a great weekend everyone!

Shell, we're just here to keep Jeff company. (don't want him chatting with himself)

I think he's the only one that's booked for this cruise.

Hi Dawn,

Its amazing! We haven't had hardly any snow for almost 2 weeks.

Since my snow blower is still in the shop, that's a good thing!

Glad to hear its starting to warm up there.

Morning all:

Naw, I just stop by from time to time just to say hello.....aint doin this cruise....

I may not even do the 2010 I have booked....but since I have time, I'm not to worried...will see what happens....

later

Jeff, Pirate night is the day your at Nassau. Sorry I dont remember the order of the shows. You can probably find a 3 day Navigator and see the sow order. When it says Hercules, that is the night Toy Story will be. I know there is a thread at the top of the discussion forums page that will connect you to Navigators.

Shell,
we want to do this cruise but wont know until the last minute. It depends on the job situation and where we are living at the time.. We have ot make sure we can pay for the 2010 first and thats looking pretty good.
We do have a few people who have NOT been on a nanahead cruise who are booked. Bev, Alicia, Darrell.

I say we try and think of a nanhead reunion cruise on one fo the new ships in 2011 or 2012 and see if most can make it. Give everyone 18 months to 2 years notice so they have time to plan and budget. With so many having kids in high school by then we may have to think summer cruise so many can have the chance to come?? Its just a thought

Brantley, loved the temp post

Hope all is well at your place.


Hi Denise,

Hi Jaime, when ever you show up.

Hi Greg, In this cold weather your cruises sound tempting, accept they are so far away, like ours is.


Hi Dawn,

hope you thawing out a bit. 32 here this morning. Should be 45 by late afternoon. Rain coming next thursday


Not much happening here today. I did make french toast this morning and I am going to the grocery store in just a bit. So few people out here in the country the stores are never packed, even on saturdays. So no need to dash out early to beat the crowds.


I will check back later to see whats shakin here today

I think Nana's cruising the RCCL Oasis sounds pretty good to me! (maybe even Freedom of the Seas?)

 

[jollyg]

Well I'm stunned!

I thought Disney would be all talk, but look what arrived in my mail today!

Now I just need to figure out what to do with them?

Janel says we should give them a second chance, but I don't even want to think about going back yet!

Hey everyone!

I've been on DCL ever since I purchased tickets to this cruise in May 2008! I just now found this thread!

I have been reading a lot but still have lots of questions that maybe you pro's can answer. But, I'll save that for another time. Just wanted to say HELLO!!

My DH & 2 DD's will be going - they will be 5 & 7 and are SUPER excited. We will be soon making a count down calendar. I've already got ideas for door signs so I think I've got a good start.

When I get some time, I'll have to go back and read some of the past threads to catch up.

315 days to go!

I'd be up for a Nana cruise on the new DCL ships. (not sure I'd want to go during the summer though?)

Going from 100 degrees in Idaho to 100 degrees + humidity in the caribbean really isn't my idea of a vacation.

WELCOME !!!!

What is your first name?

I am Kathy and we havnt booked yet but are hoping to book just before the cruise. It will depend on the job market and economy. So I am posting just in case we do get to go!!

Please ask all the questions you want. There are a lot of experienced crusiers here that are happy to answer them for you.

Kathy
