Good grief! It is 5 o'clock already. What airline are you flying? Have a good flight. I hope you are able to sleep most of the way.

Singapore Airlines and it's 2:00pm here in Vancouver....gotta run...Cioa for now! I don't usually sleep on planes but this ride is over 32 hours flying by the time I reach Christchurch, NZ.

:cool: :eek: :cool:

[Carolyn R]

Oops! I forgot about the time difference. I don't sleep on planes either. I have always said that on long flights they should give you some happy gas and wake you up when you are there. LOL!

Will someone please ask Jackie to brush up on the waltz "Tammy" from the old movie? Old Debbie Reynolds tune. We'll be seeing her in January.

 

Thanks,

 

Gary P.

 

Ok, just got done Delivering your message to Jackie in the Wheelhouse Lounge;) She is very nice at the Piano, she read your one liner & before I got out of there, she was playing it.:D She said please check in with here personally when you see her in January!:) My Best! Bill

[JotWorld]

[JotWorld]

Well darn, a couple of minutes late and a dollar short. I missed the sunset by 14 minutes or so and the Wedding by about an hour. Oh well, next time!

The Seas have pick up considerbly, since Sunset & we are Really Rocking & Rolling once more!:eek: We Had Rib Eye Steak tonight, my Fav Steak, never saw it b/4 on a ship, has anyone else? It was real Good!;) Got to go to a comedy show now, Irene's holding the Seats:D Later......................................... Bill

Just wanted you to know I'm on the Sun and I've started a "Live From." Don't know how successful I'll be, or even if I'll stick with it. It will just have to be a "wait and see."

Wonder who my first responder will be. :)

Thanks for testing out the ship for us. I am on it next Saturday for her first from New Orleans. Can you tell me who the CD is and the deputy? How is the entertainment? Will they be changing anything when you get to New Orleans that you know of?

 

I can tell you it's been cold this week along the Gulf coast. It's been in the 20s at night and the 50s during the day. I know for some of you that's not cold but for us southerners it is.

LIVE FROM THE GOLDEN PRINCESS--..-- (Morse Code)

 

Apparently my message was lost at sea or in computer heaven. David Cole is the CD and Frankie is the Asst. CD, both are excellent. The entertainment is the best we have had in a long while. Maybe Princess actually reads the surveys. Survey says: improve entertainment, hurrah!:) I just hope you get the same entertainers as we have. :) You will be getting a new Quartet. Called the Como String Quartet. They were on our DUSTS cruise last April and were EXELLENTE (See thread on the Diamond, Sydney to SF April 2006). They will be on ship until May 2006. They are from the great barrier island of Australia (just kidding Continent). Not to worry about the weather the all us CCer's on board the Golden will be bringing warm weather to Nawlens next Saturday.

 

Now for your 4am weather report it is partly cloudy, very windy:eek: , air temp.73.9 degrees F. and sea temp. 73.4 degrees F. The waves are 1.5 to 4 feet.

 

Signing off for now,

Bill,

 

Many Thanks!

 

The last time Christine and I were waltzing to Jackie singing that song we were interupted by a couple of Humpbacks around 50 meters off the port side! That was on the Sapphire in the Bearing Sea.

Hello to Bill, and the rest of you lucky cruisers on board the Golden.

 

I haven't heard much news from our neighbors- Ralph and Linda Skorupa, who are crusing with you for these two weeks. This is their first cruise- and since I love it so much, I was anxious to hear about their experiences.

Ralph is big on using the internet, so I was surprised.

 

I wrote them twice in email, to tell of the 15" of snow we received on Dec 1, near Kenosha. Very sparse message came back from them. Only one sentence- to turn their thermostat up a few degrees.

 

But since I've read all your wonderful LIVE posts, I understand that the Internet Cafe is crowded. Linda has short blonde hair, and is probably reading a book somewhere on the ship. Ralph is taller, wears glasses and loves to walk, and talk technical jargon about the airplaines he's built. They are from Salem WIsconsin.

 

With this breif description- if you see them, tell them the neighbors are pea green with envy, and so glad to hear your weather is wonderful.

 

Happy rest-of-the-voyage, and thank you so much for all the LIVE postings. Judi

Hello everyone,

I just wondered if movies are shown in an indoor theater on the Golden. We will be on the 12-23-06 cruise.

Thanks
