September 12, 2009 ~ Last Call for Tortola!

[woody73]

I have been missing in action this summer. For those of you who remember me from the WB PC cruise, I have been in therapy for my wrist all summer, and although I have a ways to go, it is getting better.

Of course we remember you, Vicki. I'm glad you're on the mend.

I'm booked on this cruise and the western right after it. I know a lot of my PC cruising buddies are on this one and some of them booked a B2B too. Can I get a roll call of everyone currently booked on this and the western B2B? Thanks.

me and John
Kathe (who I know is not cancelling)
Marilyn (who might cancel the second week)
Jackie (did you cancel the 2nd week already)
Monica (already cancelled the 2nd week)
Ian and Sukie (did you ever book the second week)
Jan (don't know)
Woody (don't know)
Cheri (don't know)
Connie (don't know)
Mandy (only booked this week)
Anyone else I forgot

I thought Cheri also booked the second week.

Hi Vicki, I was just thinking about you the other day....wondering how you were recovering. Thanks for checking in and letting us know about your progress. WOW it really is a long haul for you. At least it's steady and moving in the right direction.

The only thing we have planned so far is the Champagne Girls tasting. Same deal as last time if you're interested.

Some of us are doing the B2B with the Western after this week. Some have cancelled the second week because of their 2010 bookings. How about you? Are you planning to do the B2B Western after this cruise?

How is the jewelry making going? I love your pieces. It's good to see you back on here with us again. Looking forward to seeing you join in some more.

Thanks Deb,
I DO want to be in the Champagne tasting, I missed it last time and it looked like so much fun. We are still doing the B2B as planned right now, will see how things go-the Baltic trip really is steep!! I am still making jewelry, we have done a few craft shows, and actually done quite well, but it is just a hobby.

Hi Vicki. Glad to hear from you and that your wrist is improving. It has been a long job for you.

[/QUOTE Thanks,
It has been a LONG road, and still not finished. Since you asked in another post, and for those who weren't on the WBPC cruise---I broke my wrist (fractured/dislocated) and had to go to the hospital in Acapulco. We don't speak Spanish, and the hospital staff spoke VERY little English. They put me to sleep, reduced my wrist, and put a long arm cast on me. I had numerous problems with the cast during the remaining 5 days of the cruise, and therapy has been difficult since it was over 3 weeks from the time I broke my wrist until I had surgery, but hopefully I'm on the right track now.

E=CustardTart;28472629]Hi Vicki! I wasn't on the WB PC cruise BUT I'm so sorry to hear about the problem with your wrist... I hope it continues to improve... We're on the first Baltic of 2010 so not your one but it's definitely gonna be fab - it'd better be because of $$$!!! Tortolly looking forward to meeting you next September...
Best wishes,
Kaz...

Thanks Kaz,
I am looking forward to meeting everyone. We had so many great people on the PC trip, but I missed out on so many things. I hope to make up for it on this trip.

Happy Birthday Monica!!!!!

We are scheduled to arrive at 8AM...maybe the immigration thing won't start till then. Or maybe the feds come out and meet the ship earlier??

Last week on the Magic, we had a Customs & Border Protection inspection. Guests started assembling (by groups) in the Walt Disney Theatre as early as 8:45, which was before the 9:30 "ashore" time. All guests had to pass through Inspection by 10:45.

I'm still holding two reservations for 2010 (Baltic and WBTA). Baltic will most likely be switched to another cruise line if we can get a much more attractive rate. And we WILL be sharing that information with everyone in an attempt to have a DIS meet on RCL (or whoever).

We are very interested in doing this on another cruise line, especially if it's Royal Caribbean.

It's one of the 'contenders'. I think they did not have the port for Berlin on their 2009 itinerary, which Monica would like to see (but not mandatory), so it will be considered.

So, do you like RCL better than NCL, Celebrity or HAL? I took a look at the NCL and Celebrity ships that are going next year, still have to check out RCL and HAL (HAL is the bottom of the list as it will probably noe start and end at the same port...a strong negative in my book).

We would not hesitate to book Royal Caribbean or Celebrity. HAL would probably be our last choice. I don't know enough yet about NCL.
