Hello

I haven't booked this cruise as yet, but certainly giving it some serious thought. Depends on if I can get some friends to join me.

You have a good eye Mike. Yes, this is it.

FYI-I'm looking at deck 8 aft again. April has mentioned that she too wants to be there.

Hey, I wanna go! Sailing from CA is great for me. And I've wanted to check out the Splendor.

I did the Adventure of the Seas last summer so we were docked next to the Carnival Splendor twice during the cruise. Very impressive ship.

I think this would work well for me too since I planned to visit my son in San Diego anyway. Why shouldn't I just do both?

I'm not playing, I AM the Innocent One.

Does "hmmmmmmmm" mean you're thinking about going, Scurvy??

I took the first step today and turned in my vacation request, so I know if it's even an option for me.

Hmmmmmm is a sound I make when I am in deep thought (very unusual).
Not sure yet although it is a definite maybe. Sept would work much better.
Airfare to Cali is also not going to be good flying over Labor Day weekend.

Hmmmmmmmmm
Innocent One....

lindnet · #12 (**permalink**) February 9th, 2010, 12:08 PM

September, huh? Well, the prices DO go down in Sept. But isn't that getting awful close to your Epic cruise??

I could go in Sept. as long as it wasn't the 5th.

It will all work out Innocent One!!

and why does the word rehab come to mind ????

Cheers

Hey April, why don't you just have them go on this one with us?

April · #19 (**permalink**) February 10th, 2010, 01:24 PM

Hahaha
Now Linda remember what happens on a cruise stays on a cruise and if they went I would have to do my best to behave--like I did when Michael was with me---------

---you see there is another April-----

and my daughters mother in law who is doing this is fairly new to the cruise business---they are CruisePlanners----so its a business deal for her too---

cheers
April
and beside I would be getting two cruises out of doing it this way and not one---selfish of me isnt it

Hello April, will be nice to sail from California. It doesn't sound like Michael is going on this one. Sorry to hear that. Maybe as time goes by he will change his mind. It sure will be nice with no long flight, changing planes. and all that other stuff. Carole and I were hoping to get at least one more cruise in this year. I will need to pace myself a little. We packed a lot of action into one week. Mike

Ummm....there will be no pacing of oneself.

Hello Linda, are you signed up yet. Will be a short flight for us NorCal people, nice for a change. I am curious how many people from the Conquest January 17th. cruise will make this one. That last one was something else. I don't remember when I have had so much fun. I wish I could bottle some of TC energy. Take care, Mike

Hi Mike! Yes, I am actually booked! Yay! I think TC is booked as well. I'm really looking forward to spending time with all my new friends again. I so enjoyed meeting all of you!

Will you be flying in the day of the cruise, or will you go the day before?

Not sure about travel plans at this time. I don't really need to go the day before like the trips across the country. I will hold off and see what the group is doing. If it makes sense to go the day before, like a party, then I might. Flying to LA (long beach) in August should not be a problem. I was thinking is there an airport in Long beach? I think there might be. Something to look into. Take care, Mike

lindnet · #27 (**permalink**) February 11th, 2010, 08:22 AM

Oh, I hadn't really thought about the possibility of everybody meeting up the night before. The last time I sailed out of LA, I just flew in that day. Kinda scary in case of flight delays, but it saves the hotel cost. Hmmmmmmm (wonder where I learned that?), I might have to rethink this if we're planning a party!

Mike, I forgot.....where do you live?

ready2gonow · #28 (**permalink**) February 11th, 2010, 10:47 AM

Well, phooey! (Don't you just love censor-sensitive words!)

Don and I are going to have to pass on this cruise. Things could change, but for right now, you will just have to carry on without us. With this group, where 3 are gathered, it is a party!

Phooey is right!!

I'm going to be crossing my fingers and toes that your plans change and you can come with us!

kelzbelz77 · #30 (**permalink**) February 11th, 2010, 11:21 AM

Well I will have to pass as well. I already have one booked for October that is paid for. Hope you all enjoy and hopefully I can make the next one!! Linda you can park your car at our house!!!!
