September 12, 2009 ~ Last Call for Tortola!

[granmaz]

Wow!!
I went looking for the thread, and almost couldn't find it I figured I would bump it up to the top. Now that the holidays are over, it's time for me to get serious about planning the cruise. My DH is having surgery on his neck on Jan 27th, so we will be spending more time at home -at least for a while.
Can anyone catch me up on the group plans--like meets, FE, etc.. I know about about the champagne girls-I think Deb has already included me in that. Has anyone decided on their excursions? I also need to get busy on that.
Lastly-how many people are still doing the B2B
Sorry for all the questions Vicki

Vicki--questions are good.

I do not recall any plans being made so far. Now that we are in the YEAR OF THE CRUISE people are more likely to post and plan.

We have some posts of pictures of cruisers and info that I have been adding to and reposting every 10 pages or so. They are last posted on page 181. You can check them out and see if you want to add up-to-date info about yourself on the first one and a photo on the second. All you have to do is post what you want included here and I will move it there. Once we get to page 190 I will probably repost both posts.

We are cruising with our kids and 9 month old grand daughter and they are not DISers. The cruises I have gone on where we planned and participated in a lot of meets and group outings felt like a convention not a vacation and since we do not know what to expect of the baby, we are going low key this time.

However, I bet if you start chatting up ideas others will join. You could review the info at the bottom of post 1 and start discussing the various excursions perhaps.

Hi..

We don't have any full blown set plans yet for anything.. We are kinda waiting for our new thread to start (SO HURRY UP & KEEP POSTING EVERYONE!!!) because the owner of post 1 is M.I.A. &doesn't have a current ticker showing for this cruise... cabin numbers and people have been changed around so a New fresh Post 1 should be made by an active cruiser so we can keep updating everything..

Heck, I'd start a new one if everyone would agree to it.. we could stop posting here, and I will attach a link to it, on Post 1 of a new cruise meet thread.. Or if anyone active here that would like to by all means.. go right ahead...

It might be good if you do start a new thread. We must have scared Steve off somewhere, though I don't think he ever wanted to keep track of things. I'm wondering if he is still going. Shame.

It might liven things up a bit and get us in the mood for planning again!

I don't thing we have to wait till page 250 to start a new thread. But maybe would should give it a week or two to see if folks start showing up since the holidays are over (including our OP).

I know I'm ready to 'get down to business'

 

[rotary2808]

I'm all for a new, fresh thread so we can post all of our plans for our cruise THIS YEAR. I can't believe it's actually this year. Just be sure to point me to the right thread if someone does start a new one. Maybe once we start a new one, we can ask the mods to close this one that way there's no confusion.

Several people, including myself, have sent Steve a PM or two and never heard back, nor was post 1 changed when we requested updated info.. Sooo.. who knows

I know I sent my 2 PMs before the holidays.. But.. I'm willing to wait.. if someone else wants to try to get in contact with him

 

[granmaz]

He doesn't have this cruise as a countdown now.

 

[pfishgirl]

He doesn't have this cruise as a countdown now.

I saw that too.. I thought at one point he did have one with us.. Then I wasn't sure..

He was on the DisBoards recently, Dec 30th was his last post according to his public profile information

 

[pfishgirl]

I sent him a PM today with delivery read confirmation.. I'll let you know if I hear from him or not..

 

[SNicksed]

Sorry all about not responding. I didn't have any pm's then all of the sudden I have 3.

As you can see in my signature, yes we have changed our plans. I have updated the first page with what was in my in-box. (pfishgirl - I do not have your post with your changes???)

I hope you all have a great cruise.

I have been trying to keep the list up and reposting it every 10 pages or so. It is at the top of 181. If it is wrong i would love to have people let me know and I will correct it and repost around 190. I am the one who started it and Steve copied it into post one but then I couldn't keep it up so I took it over and reposted every so often. The photos are there too. Anyone want to add or correct?

Sorry you are gone Steve. I will take you off the list posted on page 181 and repost them over here--maybe they can be at the top of a page.

I would be happy to start a new thread. What do you all think--now or later??

Thank You for letting us know.. Sorry you won't be with us, but have an AWESOME time on all your vacation plans..

 

[JLSE50]

If we start a new thread, what should we call it? Same title since we have the logo picture?

Since we heard from Steve and he is no longer cruising with us, I say start a new thread.. As long as you feel you can keep up with it, by all means Post away.. As for the logo, sure why not, use what we got..

Just a suggestion.. You may want to only include those of us that are still active and or have a ticker stating they are still cruising with us.. I know a few people on the list on Post 1 are no longer cruising with us..

 

[JLSE50]

Instead of referring to the post on page 1 can you check the post on page 181 that I have been keeping up and let me know if anyone is not coming who is on that list?

THANKS

Jan

 

[ibouncetoo]

Jan, for the page 1 info only additional information is for TiggersPal (you have her listed right under me) celebrating 50th Birthday and cabin # is 6602.

Don't see any reason we can't start a new one now. As soon as you build it, post a link here and I think Steve will have to ask a mod to close this one (think it has to be the OP).

I vote YES keep "Last Call for Tortola" in the header.

....that's my two cents....
