*OFFICIAL CC GROUP CRUISE*"Spirit of the 'Magic'al Dream" CARNIVAL MAGIC, FEB 26,2012

[PoofyTheCat]

Hey SMDers!

 

Rich, I just wanted to let you know that I may be doing laundry today. I know how fascinated you are by laundry day! Hee hee! :D

 

Have a great day everyone!

[Koval]

Now I don't have anything to do here at work:(. Ya, right. Marie, your just too good.

Sorry Rich, my thread has been slow, so I needed to do something...

I see you have filled in the stuff I didn't know ;)

Morning SMDers, now off to work for me

Oh and WELCOME to Vanessa & Fabian

Jerod and Emilee's friends.

Looking forward to meeting you too :p

[Koval]

Hey SMDers!

 

Rich, I just wanted to let you know that I may be doing laundry today. I know how fascinated you are by laundry day! Hee hee! :D

 

Have a great day everyone!

 

Mimi, I know you said you weren't going to book until after you see if Andy likes cruising...

(He will by the way)

but it is only a $50 risk to book it now before Nov. 1st

and not have to pay the whole $500 deposit.

After Nov. 1st you will have to do that.

plus the rates are likely to go up, because it is a NEW ship.

Really girl, you are going to love these peeps and want to be on this one with all of us...

And I know you will want to be the Nachi Cocom Director...

You have done such a great job for the Looneys

 

Take a $50 chance on us you wont regret it!!!!

By the Way Rich you can put me down for the Nachi Cocom Director,

until Poofy decides she wants to get on board :D

[PoofyTheCat]

We don't have the $500 to spend in November. Got a wedding coming up. Sorry that we'll have to pass on being official SMDers.

 

I hope it's ok to post an occasional hello on this thread though!

[Dragonfly34]

HI RICH!:) I'm so excited about how this cruise is turning out!

[lilnan]

Welcome, Welcome to all the new SMDers!!!

Rich, just to let you know, Johna did fix my reservation. She was very happy to hear that I uderstood that she was very busy right now, so everyone, just be patient.

Asa has family in League City, so we may end up staying there, but I will see if we can just go ahead and stay at the hotel the night before. That is so much easier.

BTW, Mimi, EVERY day is laundry day at my house!!! :eek: With a family of 6, it's like you haven't done any if you don't get more than 2 loads a day done!!!;)

Hey, Howdy, and Hello to all my sibs!

[1tuckersmom]

Good (barely) afternoon to all the SDMers..

 

I was late stopping by, but got caught up on all the post. Do not really have anything important to say.

 

Rich as Janet said if you are keeping up with it, Betty & I are booked in an 8B cabin & I have a Jan. birthday too. The 6th. so I will be a BD person as well.

 

Hand is achy today so I`m not going to type much.:eek:

 

Not going to name names just waving to all...

[NMCruiser55]

The band aid story was funny but I hope the guy knocked over was okay. :D

 

We live in Alamogordo, twice a year they have tours of the Trinity site. Just read the paper that travel agents are checking out southern NM for visitors to the spaceport. I can't believe how many tickets they have sold for those flights.

 

We haven't stayed in Galveston yet. The first time we cruised we discovered something called Dickens on the Strand (or something like it).. no rooms available (at least in our price range). We usually get to San Antonio then drive in the next day. The Holiday Inn sounds good with the shuttle.

[satex]

Good afternoon SMDers.

Congrats to the newest Director, Marie, Nachi Cocom in Cozumel. Thanks Marie.

[Koval]

We don't have the $500 to spend in November. Got a wedding coming up. Sorry that we'll have to pass on being official SMDers.

 

I hope it's ok to post an occasional hello on this thread though!

Mimi, that is why you should book before Nov.1st so you get the $25 deposit not due in full till Aug. 2011.

At least that is what I understand is going to happen.

so what if I can't see my booking # on CCL untill Aug 2011

I can deal with that...

I just wanted to make sure you knew what I was trying to say...Don't want to make you join, just the benefits of joining before Nov.

And you can always post even if you never make it on the cruise.

You are a Sib now like it or not :D

[Koval]

OK back to work for me, see ya all later

[illeniumsd]

Good afternoon everyone. Sorry for not checking in earlier. Was swamped last night with work. Photographed folk singer Emmylou Harris last night and now im working on a commercial shoot at a casino. Long night and day!!

Stoked to see Nessa and Fabian on here!

 

Rich, i'm in for the official photographer =)

 

Janet, stocking up on bandaids, will have full ER trauma kit with me on this cruise. Will be able to handle anything short of surgery. ;)

[satex]

That's right Mimi - after Nov 1 you will have to pay Carnival's "prevailing rate", but before Nov 1 you will get the reduced deposit of $25 per person and the group rate (at this point is $100 pp less then the prevailing rate)..It's just such a good deal right now and we would hate to see ya'll lose out on it. But, like Marie, your still family!

Holly, bring them all on. The more the merrier.

Nessa, we can celebrate for ya'lls 5th at the B-day party. Just another reason to party:p.

Marie, sorry your at work, but I know the feeling. However, I am now off until monday:D.

Congrats to Jerod, our Official Photographer. I knew that we could count on you. PS. don't forget the rumrunners!

Cathy p, you will have to keep printing up a new list everyday for the next month until we get everyone signed up before the deadline because of the changes daily.

Rich, just to make sure I'm not misreading, you must pay 25pp now, and then on Nov. 1st pay $225 per person to match the new deposit?

 

We just can't swing that right now unfortunately. 25 yes, 225pp no. :(

Hmmmm... Let me think about it and get back to you... I want to be the Director for the one that will be the MOST fun :p I'm thinking the cabin crawl BUT the birthday party would be fun as well... I'll let you know tonight!

 

No, I don't think we are going to have ANY fun at all... I think this is going to be the MOST boring cruise EVER... Lol ;)

[satex]

Rich, just to make sure I'm not misreading, you must pay 25pp now, and then on Nov. 1st pay $225 per person to match the new deposit?

 

We just can't swing that right now unfortunately. 25 yes, 225pp no. :(

 

Mimi - you can pay the $25 pp reduced deposit up until Nov 1 and then you have until Aug 29, 2011 to pay the full deposit and Nov 13, 2011 for final payment. AFTER Nov 1 you will have to pay the full deposit, but until then you can book the cruise with the $25pp. You won't get a booking number until the full deposit is made, but you really don't need one anyway. Remember you only need the $25 to book under the reduced deposit and have until Aug 29, 2011 to come up with the remaining deposit (of $225). I hope I cleared that up, and you can now email or call Johna and book. So, can I put ya'll down as SMDer's?

Em -No, I don't think we are going to have ANY fun at all... I think this is going to be the MOST boring cruise EVER... Lol ;) Somehow with you and Jerod on board, I find that hard to believe.

This cruise is going to be sooooooo much fun:D:D:D

[PoofyTheCat]

Rich and (via Facebook) Bobbie, MASSIVE HUGE THANK YOU for clearing that up! I was just so confused. Now I see why everybody is booking this deal!

 

I thought that you could book now for 25pp but have to cough up the remaining 225 pp ON Nov. 1st of this year.

 

Ok, so for 50 dollars Andy and I can reserve a spot and then have until Aug 2011 to pay the first deposit.

 

We are still scared of every dollar with the wedding etc. still need plane tickets for the Looney trip... could you please answer this question?: What happens if we have to cancel? We lose the 50 dollars? Can that be applied to a future cruise instead? I really want us to book this, but must know of every single small print detail.

 

Thank you friends! I really thought we needed 500 dollars to reserve this deal by Nov. 1st 2010.

[satex]

Nancy had to cancel the Mateys cruise in Mar and they moved her funds to this cruise for her.

[PoofyTheCat]

Nancy had to cancel the Mateys cruise in Mar and they moved her funds to this cruise for her.

 

 

As long as that is the norm, and not some special favor, then we are in! Andy agrees. We MUST wait until Nov 1st paycheck (which will arrive Oct. 29th)... great company that doesn't pay you over the weekend if the paycheck is due on the weekend, they pay you prior to that date... Anyway, we will contact Johnna in the next week and get this booked. I am just worried about where we may be living in Feb. 2012 and may have to change plans. I doubt it would really affect our vacation choices, but still, why throw money away today?

 

THANK YOU SO MUCH FRIENDS FOR CLEARING UP THE CONFUSION!

 

Now, the next question, can we book an interior room, and then upgrade later at the same advertised prices via this group cruise later on? (assuming availability still exists).

 

Thank you! I'm so excited now to have the ability to be apart of the SMDers! :) Hopefully it will all work out!
