LEtue Posted July 3, 2010 #102 Share Posted July 3, 2010 OMG, the Titanic anniversary again. We sailed from FLL on a TA to Barcelona (via Ireland, England, Belgium, Holland) and we sailed on April 15, 2007, which I believe was the 95th anniversary? Maybe the anniversary of the sailing or the sinking, I can't remember, but we had the worst weather all the way across the Atlantic that I have ever experienced on a cruise! And the odd coincidence was the first stop was in Cobh, which was the last port of call for the Titanic before it sunk. :eek: :eek: :eek: So what would a normal crossing from San Diego to Hawaii be like in April like? Is it usually rough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luckysll Posted July 3, 2010 Author #103 Share Posted July 3, 2010 I booked it through my vacation rewards group but I'm on board! Shhh don't tell hubby (it's a surprise!) Hi Beth. Great you'll be joining us. I promise not to spoil the surprise when we're on the Miracle. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckysll Posted July 3, 2010 Author #105 Share Posted July 3, 2010 "Maybe we should be the "Spirit Slippahs". The group tee shirts and banner can have flip flops on them....just an idea." I LOVE this idea, especially since t-shirts and flip flops are my idea of a perfect vacation! By the way, I am Margie, Linda's cabinmate (LEtue and hmstins). Hi y'all! Hi Margie. Spirit Slippahs sounds good, too. I can practically picture the t-shirt now. :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luckysll Posted July 3, 2010 Author #106 Share Posted July 3, 2010 We had a conflict come up. So there is absolutely no way we'd be able to join the group. Kindly remove us from the list. Thank you. Ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luckysll Posted July 3, 2010 Author #107 Share Posted July 3, 2010 I watched a special on TV about the Titanic... do you realize this sailing will be over the 100 year anniversary?http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RMS_Titanic OMG, the Titanic anniversary again. We sailed from FLL on a TA to Barcelona (via Ireland, England, Belgium, Holland) and we sailed on April 15, 2007, which I believe was the 95th anniversary?

And the odd coincidence was the first stop was in Cobh, which was the last port of call for the Titanic before it sunk. Should I even mention that we leave San Diego on a Friday the 13th!!?? Maybe I shouldn't point that out or no one will book. :D Good thing I'm not superstitious. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckysll Posted July 3, 2010 Author #115 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Actually, three...I am not letting Robert in on this little trip until we get back from our cruise in January:o Both Hues_of_blues and Got_cruises will be cruising with me on the Miracle Feb. 7/11, so that's what I meant about keeping two secrets. I will keep yours too, of course, but it will be much easier. :D The only person I have around on a daily basis to keep secrets from is my cat and he doesn't care. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vacruizer Posted July 3, 2010 #116 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Molly, I see the start of a great banner in here....:D I agree! You could also do something to do with "Aloha Spirit" and use the slippahs as a theme. You hear about Aloha spirit all the time in Hawaii. And unless you are hiking or jogging or something like that - everyone wears their slippahs EVERYWHERE - even nice restaurants, church, etc. It's such a common symbol there - I even have a silver pendant of one I got in Maui, my favorite place on earth. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as you take a little time to learn the customs and culture a bit before you go and treat people with respect, you will get a world of kindness from everyone you meet in return. :D I can't even describe the scenery and do it any justice.

Sorry about that, It is now until sometime the end of summer or longer I can not take a vk. DH and I talked about this am and he said we need to go for it. We have been talking about doing the 12 day but this one is better for us. We like going to San Diego and this will give us time there before or after our cruise.

Luckysll Posted July 4, 2010 Author #125 Share Posted July 4, 2010 Sorry about that, It is now until sometime the end of summer or longer I can not take a vk. DH and I talked about this am and he said we need to go for it. We have been talking about doing the 12 day but this one is better for us. We like going to San Diego and this will give us time there before or after our cruise. I love San Diego, too. One of the things I will be doing closer to the date of the cruise will be to look for a hotel that will give us a good group rate for at least two nights pre-cruise. Last time I was there, I stayed at the Holiday Inn on the Bay with a bay view room and watched the Spirit come in to port early in the morning. The hotel is a little pricey, so I'm not sure if they could give us much of a discount, but there are lots of other hotels to choose from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
