She is pretty busy handling all the other CC groups. I had left her a voice message on Wednesday, then realized I was going to be working yesterday, so sent her an email to ask her to contact me today. Then I tried yesterday morning before I left for work and got through to her right away, so was able to book then.

She mentioned that. I'll be home about 15 minutes before she's supposed to get off work, so I'll try then too. If I don't reach her, I'll try again early Monday morning.

There is no thread yet in the Member Cruise section, so I'm still not able to link up to the pricing and booking info, so if you are interested in cruising with us, please email me at

If anyone has any activities they'd like to do on the cruise, let me know. We will have the private cocktail party, which is usually scheduled on a sea day, but is there anything else?

 

A slot tourney? Cabin/poker crawl? Mini golf tourney? A group dinner in the Supper Club? I'm open to any suggestions.

 

Also, we can look at booking private excursions in the ports as opposed to doing the ship's tours.

[Chacooe]

Hi Sandy,

 

Will Johnana notify you when we have booked or she notify you?

[Luckysll]

Hi Sandy,

 

Will Johnana notify you when we have booked or she notify you?

 

Cruisecritic gets a list every month of who is booked on each group cruise. I can get that list from CC, but Johna doesn't notify me when someone books.

 

Easiest thing is for you to just post here when you've booked.

[Luckysll]

Good morning, Spirited Maniacs. Hope everyone had a good weekend.

 

Today is Thanksgiving Day in Canada. I cooked a small turkey yesterday for just my brother and me, but having just the two of us means lots of leftovers. :D He and I own a house together (he lives upstairs, I'm in the basement suite). We are both single, and while we do have other family in town, everyone else has plans this year, so it ended up just us.

 

I should probably tell you a little about myself. I'm 60, retired from a job with the BC Provincial Government and I'm now doing part time temp work for Kelly Services. I have a daughter, and three wonderful grandchildren. All live nearby, which is very nice.

Happy Thanksgiving!

 

I now have 3 cabins booked! Most likely do a 4th tomorrow.

[Luckysll]

Who else is interested in joining the Spirited Maniacs for 8 days to the Mexican Riviera?

 

The Spirit is a great ship and the ports of Acapulco, Zihauatanejo/Ixtapa and Manzanillo offer lots of fun things to do and see.

 

For pricing and booking info, please email me at luckysll @ shaw.ca

 

We'd love to have you come along.

I'm 48, married, have 2 daughters and 1 son. No grandkids. I am a computer programmer currently working for the state of Nevada. I'll be traveling with my husband, 2 daughters, son inlaw, my sister and BIL, 3 nephews and 1 niece. Kids will be 13 to adult when we cruise. We are taking all our kids except 1 each. My mother is also booked.

We are 59 (Jerry) and 55 (Cindy), retired military and live in Lansing, Kansas which is alongside the Missouri River/Missouri border - 35 minutes from Kansas City. I am an accountant and teach some courses at the local community college. This will be our 9th Carnival Cruise. The Pride is our favorite ship (4 cruises), so hopefully we will enjoy the Spirit as much - our favorite place on Spirit class ships is the sun deck where we generally spend the majority of our time. We were on the Pride repositioning cruise thru the Panama Canal with Sandy which was truly a special cruise. :)
