Lizzzys Posted June 1, 2010 #1076 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Well in Calgary we learn to expect just about anything weather-wise! There is a saying that goes "if you don't like the weather in Calgary, wait five minutes!" It's true. The weather can change drastically in a few short hours (or sometimes minutes!) Snow is usually gone by Victoria Day (May 18'ish) but it's never a guarantee and we've been known to have a snow storm or two sometimes in June. The nice thing is that it really doesn't "stick" at this time of year, so it's just moisture to make everything more green. It's a bit of a pain for our annuals though. I say we gather our group at Senior Frogs at the end of our day in Aruba and have some fun before sail away at 10:00 pm!! Senior Frogs is right at the pier so it's an easy walk (run!) to get back on time. Tracey Lizzzzys...sorry about the snow! I also heard talk of hail?? What is going on up there? Is this typical weather for y'all? Thanks for the info on Aruba! I'm thinking this will probably be a beach stop for us but we like to explore our options.

tracyanns Posted June 1, 2010 #1077 Share Posted June 1, 2010 I have sent Johna our information for our 2 rooms, me and hubby Jeff in balcony and my mom and our youngest daughter Hailee in an inside. Hope to hear back from her today or tomorrow to confirm we are all set and I will then add us to the booked list. We cruise in a group each year but never with CC and never one this large. Seems like most of you already know each other so hope you have some room for us newbies... Tried to get the group onboard but they only like RCCL so looks like it will be their loss! Hope we get a thread soon, I do love to chat with others on out cruise and can't wait to go...this is a surprise for my husband and my daughter so I can't talk about it at home... Looks like we do have a lot to cover as far as hotels, flights and excursions. I did notice that Carlos and Charlies is no longer there, is that because of Natalie Halloway? I do love me my Senior Frogs, although I have been close to missing more than 1 ship hanging out there...:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tracey I forgot we are in Aruba so late...might have to miss dinner in the MDR that night! :eek: Meet up at Senor Frogs sounds good to me! :D With enough of our group there someone should be able to keep track of time and get us all back to the ship before sailaway...I HOPE! :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We always have room for more...our motto from the begining has been "The more the merrier" and we mean it! Sorry the rest of your group isn't interested...it will definitely be their loss! ;) Not sure about Carlos and Charlies but I suppose that could have had something to do with it. We'll just have to head over to Senor Frogs instead! Looking forward to chatting with you and getting to know you and all the other new Waiters...with a little over a year and a half we should be able to cover just about every topic out there!

Don't think that is what I heard, but then also being new around here I may be misinformed! Was that the Bailey or the Absolute Brand of Tea?

Javacruiser Posted June 1, 2010 #1089 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Sounds like the ideas are flowing rather nicely! I've been pulling a "Doug" here for the most part (Lurking) while I try to get caught up. For anybody here who thinks they are a newbie and hope you fit in ....... If you think we seem like a good group based on our posts (Most seem to think so:eek:)..... You'll fit in just fine and you won't be looked at as a newbie. No big egos in this group.... Just one big happy family no matter if this is your first, second or third cruise with the group. By the way, don't let Billfish fool you..... He's probably been in the sun too long fishing today....... The only tea he'll be drinking won't be with his pinky pointing out and it won't be available at the buffet line.:rolleyes: Bill (One of the other Bill's) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
