pazandak63 Posted August 11, 2005 #79 Share Posted August 11, 2005 Good Morning Chucksta...how many kids are they anticipating. Actually, we booked this cruise with you because our last did not have many kids. DH and I had fun but kids were bored because there were not enough kids and kids program was minimal due to low numbers. My son was not interested in another cruise. Now that he is chatting with others his age that are traveling in our group. He is very excited. We have radios but not sure of the range. I will have to check mine out. I do like this idea. I am glad we are booked and got a great price with this group. I think the prices are going to keep going up as the ship fills. And...all the good rooms will be filled. Easter week will be very popular with parents. Thanks for sending all that stuff. Hope to work on passports next week. Karyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pazandak63 Posted August 12, 2005 #84 Share Posted August 12, 2005 Good Morning Lisa, This is a great group if you have a child. I cant tell you how excited we are to have found this group so that we can travel with others we get to meet before the cruise. And, excursions are more fun when you know others. Chuck has a neat system of radios to keep track of the kids and parents have planned activities together as well. When we went on the Valor we had met others on the boards and met up on the ship adn it really made our trip. Other than there were not many kids. So, this one was perfect for us. Dont listen to Chuck on the Sting Ray thing. I was quite brave. I got in the water. Beutiful, warm, crystal blue. I was enjoying myself...then a HERD of those big black things came at me. I quickly processed..STING ray. Prodominent word being...STING!. I simply displayed my physical agility. Have you be on a cruise before?

Hockeymom4 Posted August 16, 2005 #95 Share Posted August 16, 2005 I am in NH and our vacation week is the week after, MA's. I have a bunch of cabins on hold for the Glory for the 4/22/06 sailing. so I could get cabin credits and gifts and such...I was lucky enough to get airfare on song for only $165 RT including taxes from Boston to Orlando...the ship leaves out of Port Canaveral. I was going to wait for SW rates to come out, but they won't be out til 3 - 5 months prior and they won't be cheaper than that for us, even out of Manchester. We have always done cruises during our April vacation...love it. But then again...we have kids. If your cruise was a week later...I would do it in a heartbeat.

Where are you?? Our Vacation is for the 17th but we are going down early!!! I thought all of NH was on vacation for the 17th.? We play hockey too!!! Kearsarge Thrashers!!!! Who do your kids play for??? I wish you would come with us this is going to be a great time with all the kids we have going!!!! Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucksta63 Posted August 16, 2005 Author #97 Share Posted August 16, 2005 Nope...some of NH has vacation the week after you...we are in New Durham, my kids go to private school though. My son plays hockey for NH Jr. Monarchs and my daughter plays for St. Thomas High School. Our Glory goes out of Port Canaveral on the 22nd. I was even able to land discounts on Shore Excursions in Belize through a private supplier. I can't wait to try the cave tubing, or my little dd and I may just go to the beach one. And I also got coupons and stuff for free Margaritas in Coz...and free lunches etc. in Key West. I agree that Carnival does great pricing for their groups. My prices are well under what others have posted for pricing for the same sailing...I was originally on a different line, but switched to CCL. I do still have to fill a few cabins though. But I have a few more weeks for the $25 deposit thing. Ihave three in mine so like you, I had to pay the $250 pp. Plus I got assigned cabins as my older kids are across the hall, again full deposit amounts, lol. Sounds like you guys are going to have a great group on your cruise. Sounds like loads of fun! Oh Nice your a Group Leader too!!!! Jr. Monarchs we have played them!!!! We are in the pee wee's.. Have you checked out our Triumph boards?? Sounds like your right on top of it!!!!Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hockeymom4 Posted August 16, 2005 #98 Share Posted August 16, 2005 My son is a PeeWee too. He is on the 93/94 team this year at tier 2 for Granite State. He had a reallly bad accident last November (head on collision...not good) and at tryouts he wasn't rready to move up to the major team...so he is stuck playing down a tier. Whatever...we are just happy he is skating, let alone walking etc. It is great, that he is back to being a normal 12 year old...it was a scary time. I look at the pictures and cry every time. Group leader...yes you could say that. LOL...I am still working on other discounts too. I was happy to get the $100 shipboard credit...that is really good. And...a few more goodies. If we get a total of 8 cabins...we get one free berth...you must be too...I am planning on splitting it between everyone at final payment time.
