Host Dan Posted April 19, 2007 #1 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Hi all, I thought there was a thread for this roll call, but couldn't find one. We will definately be on Novembers Transatlantic this year!! Already booked flights and hotel. Anyone else? :confused: :confused: Host Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeaSea8ch Posted April 19, 2007 #2 Share Posted April 19, 2007 All right!!! Many Legendary crossers have already booked this and even the November 2008 crossing as well. My hotel and airfare were finalized in December. I am staying 3 nights at the Lapa Palace before the cruise. Are you booked there or another hotel? Also glad things will be back to normal with you in charge of the Legendary Travelogue. If you like, I can be your "Cub Reporter" and provide reviews of my shore excursions and posting a few photos as well. Is it November 7, 2007 yet ? :confused: :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lefty Bob Posted April 19, 2007 #5 Share Posted April 19, 2007 WE are onboard. Have air done. Will stay two nights in Lisbon. No hotel yet. Lapa is a bit out of our range. LB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We arrive on the 6th, so just the 1 night in Lisbon. We are staying at the Marriott this time. I hope to resurrect a "proper" travel logue this crossing. :) Host Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeaSea8ch Posted April 19, 2007 #7 Share Posted April 19, 2007 Now gentlemen, you both are booked on the March 2008 Legend eastbound crossing! However, if you try the westbound Nov. Legendary crossing you will much more enjoy retarding your watches and clocks than advancing them, IMHO. You get an extra half day of sunshine! :p Matt, my TA, based on input from her clients who stayed there, highly recommended the Lapa Palace and Deb "dmb707" gave me a thumbs up review. I wanted a third opinion, as you were going to stay there before the President's Cruise after the Pride crossing. Since your plans changed and your upcoming cruise does not begin / end in Lisbon, I will be happy to post my assessment of the Lapa during the Legend crossing.

Legendary crossing you will much more enjoy retarding your watches and clocks than advancing them, IMHO. You get an extra half day of sunshine! :p If I didn't already have Nov. '07 plans, I would have tried to secure a spot! I love the idea of gaining time versus losing it!! However, my Nov. cruise is a (somewhat deductible) geek cruise, and I'll need to do that.... However, I'm gonna look real hard at 11/08 and try to keep things "open"! (the other) Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CeeJay11 Posted April 20, 2007 #10 Share Posted April 20, 2007 Hi Dan Wally and I will be there as well - however we are starting in Rome so we will get to wave at you during the lifeboat drill! :) I love the extra hours you gain on these November cruises. We have six months to look forward to this cruise.! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norm2002 Posted April 20, 2007 #11 Share Posted April 20, 2007 I have just emailed my TA to ask her to cancel my reservation for the November 07 crossing. I will be flying to Colombia for 2 weeks instead ;). Not sure how full the cruise is but it means a suite is now available - or will be soon. I will miss seeing so many friends!

Seabourn-nail Posted April 21, 2007 #17 Share Posted April 21, 2007 Too bad you won´t be there Norm! I was hoping you would bring Patricia along on the November crossing. But this sounds good too. As long as you are happy! Marja Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnycruise Posted April 21, 2007 #18 Share Posted April 21, 2007 Marja, It appears that you take the trip in both seasons ... do the November transatlantic cruises offer a "smoother ride" than the Spring crossings? johnny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seabourn-nail Posted April 21, 2007 #19 Share Posted April 21, 2007 Indeed we try to do a spring and a fall crossing Johnny, because especially my husband likes sea days! I do too, but I don't mind cruises with a lot of ports either. So far all of our fall crossings have been smoother and warmer as well. But nowadays it is hard to do any predictions about the weather all over the world. Yes, we do know that it is not likely to snow around the equator, but once I suffered from the heath in Oslo the worst in my life! Running from shelter to shelter we reached the Pride again. So don't kill me if we will have a storm in November! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
