MikeyA53 Posted August 11, 2011 Author #1727 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Loved the review! Thank you for sharing your experiences. You have a wonderful family. Now i need to figure out a way to take a month off of work so I can follow in your footsteps. Thank you RugbyChick333. It's too bad that most North Americans can't take a month off like most Europeans do. I've read a lot of comments on CC where some people are lucky to get a week off. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KLcruiser Posted August 12, 2011 #1730 Share Posted August 12, 2011 WOW!!!! Just spent the past 12 HOURS :eek: reading your beautiful review. (BTW :rolleyes: for the peanut gallery, I do have a life. I work 12-hour shift on nights and I had last night off. LOL!) It was almost like a mini novel and I loved it! You sound like a real "Sweetheart" Mike and I'm sure Tracy is blessed to have you in her life. I would like to THANK YOU for sharing that portion of your life and your beautiful family with us. One question for this dreamy novel...How/where did you guys meet? You know I think what kept me intrigued with your review was that fact that you didn't dwell on the small stuff. Some people write their reviews dictating thier dislikes, criticisms, mishaps, and anything negative that goes on. Instead of focusing in the positive memories that they encountered, they prefer to discuss the dirty roomservice trays left in the halls and how long they remaind there, or if the ocean view window remained dirty the entire cruise, or if they chose to wait 15 minutes for the elevator instead of taking the stairs. Silly stuff. I commend you for focusing on the positive. It tells a lot about your character and how you realize there are more important things to focus on than the negative. Kudos to you! ;) Blessings to Tracy as she completes her training and to you and your family as you guys continue to have "happy" travels. Looking forward to your future cruise reviews.

pe4all Posted August 12, 2011 #1731 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I have been following this thread "from the beginning" and I can't believe Tracy is graduating in a few days! I know it seems she has been gone forever, but the "end" is within arm's reach. Congrats to her, and to you, as you have been both dad and mom for a long period of time! Please post some pictures of her graduation. I know they do some sort of riding exhibition, and would love to see her in her hard-earned uniform. Just a quick question - will you two be stationed together at the same post? That would be wonderful!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smallworldtraveller Posted August 12, 2011 #1732 Share Posted August 12, 2011 whoo this has been a long time coming.... Tracey almost finished and hopefully another cruise. Glad her mom and dad coud come over to see this moment in her life.. Enjoy your time you get with each other before she is finished at school. Have fun as a family and once again congrats to her Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One question for this dreamy novel...How/where did you guys meet? Now that's quite a story, I actually entered a Valentine contest a few years ago titled " How you met your sweetheart" and won first prize (tickets to a theatre performance). When I get back home I'll post it. You know I think what kept me intrigued with your review was that fact that you didn't dwell on the small stuff.

We are posted together approximately one hour from where we live now. We live near Woodstock, New Brunswick and are transferring just outside Fredericton, New Brunswick. Presently we have our house for sale. Tracy will have to commute to work while we wait for the house to sell, I'll keep working where I work now till we sell.

jmcancruise Posted August 12, 2011 #1737 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Sorry to hear you are leaving our fair town, but you spoke of that possibility in an earlier thread. Good luck with the house sale. I think Fredericton is a wonderful city. I am sure you will all love it there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rxralph Posted August 13, 2011 #1745 Share Posted August 13, 2011 Dec 2009, we did a B2B and they added a $299 price on Triumph and many stayed on the 3rd leg .. ... but wasnt a B2B2B2B ... 4 cruises. I agree Im impressed. 2 weeks so far is my limit Im comfortabel being away from my place. We share your awe. We did a repositioning equivalent to a 4-b, however it was all on one ship. ralph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you so much jackdis. Can't book anything yet, not until Tracy has started working for a while. We would like to cruise in March, maybe a B2B on two different ships if Tracy can get the time off. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
