Jim, there is an Embassy suites in Pompano, changed a few years ago to Sheraton Suites. Known as Crown Suites when opened.

 

Embassy suites on 17th. St. in Ft. Laud. was also Crown Suites.

Neville:

Based on what Dougburn is telling me

both the early arrivals of Voyager (single segement), and Marnier will be at the Embassy Suite on 17th in Fort Lauderdale 01/08/07

Cruisegal, where did you see that Sen. Graham will not be aboard ?

[Jim B]

For those of you CC'ers & LCT'ers on the Mariner 01/09/07.

I think we should all meet in the observation lounge after the muster drill.

Good idea?

Neviboy - Hi!

Maybe I'm wrong, but I can no longer find any mention of Senator Graham for this cruise on the website so my assumption is he must be off - maybe it's a bad assumption but they were promoting it in the brochures and on the web and now it's gone. Do you still see him mentioned? Maybe I'm overlooking it some where.

Just received our passports today with the Brazilian visa's attached.

that is a good sign. Won't be long now before our doc's arrive.

[AWED23]

We have always enjoyed Embassy Suites.

Being from Phoenix maybe you can help me.

Years ago we stayed at a place, (in Phoenix), that is now a Embassy Suite.

Can't remember what the name was back then.

Really liked it.

GRANADA ROYALE......24th & Thomas most likely....

[Jim B]

Yes yes.

That is it.

Thank you AWED23

[Jim B]

We have our passports back with visas attached.

Ours came from Los Angeles. Took about 2 weeks.

Neville:

When we booked back in Jan 06 we just did a GTY for cabin assignment.

I just went on line and see we have been assigned our cabin.

We will be in #1071

[Jim B]

Just a little reminder to all of you going on South America cruise....DO NOT forget your yellow immunization card with proof of your vacination(s). Last year when we went on SA cruise there were several who forgot theirs!

 

We'll be boarding the Voyager the same day you're boarding the Mariner in FLL and we'll see you at Princess Cay Island on January 10th for the combination beach party for both ships!

 

It won't be long now!! Happy cruising to all!!

[Jim B]

Marcie.

Any idea of where we can meet on the island?

Maybe there won't be to many of us and we can just find each other.

Look forward to seeing you and Tom again. Even if it is only for a few hours.

[petlover]

I'm clueless Jim! I've never been there to Princess Cay island and have no idea the layout, the size etc. I guess we'll just have to keep our eyes open for each other. Maybe someone who has been there before has some recommendations?

[Jim B]

Oh that is ok.

I am sure I will find Petlover.

[neviboy]

The observation lounge is where we usually meet after the lifeboat drill.

[Jim B]

Observation lounge it is after muster drill.
