YEAH!!!!!! congratulations... whats the full itinerary?

personally i would choose Atlanta.. going over... is yours a direct flight to your embarkation city??

going over....headed toward Barcelona we changed in London.. and almost missed our connection

plan as much as 3 hours to get through.. most likely it will be quicker.. but i have seen long lines and only ONE agent

returning to the united states we cleared customs at our entry port Dallas /Fort Worth. (our return flight Itinerary was Venice to DWF to LAX

hi there.... Behind the scene tours are just that .... they take a group of guests behind the scenes!! It may be a tour of the stage and back stage in the theater.. or it could be a tour of the ships galley.. but the bottom line is it's a behind the scenes tour... very interesting and lots of fun.. I have done the galley tour my favorite maybe because i was a restaurant person in one of my careers!

thanks Howard , Rose and Marylou.. what about the rest of you

I am wondering if the water is good on the ship, because they took water in from Mexico in March 2006 and people got really sick (Norovirus). But since it departs from Vancouver it should be OK??? YES??? yes ...but sunbeam i believe the celebrity ships produce their own drinking water through huge osmosis machines on board..where did you get the idea that they "imported" water from local ports?? if i am not mistaken .. most norovirus comes form unsanitary people.. (ie:going to the bathroom not washing their hands and then touching things throughout the ship).. now i may be wrong.. but I don't think it was the water..

i have looked at that cruise two year in a row.. had it booked one year but canceled... it should be outstanding

sunshine.. we sailed the mercury to alaska.. its a nice ship...little old but clean good staff for the most part.. i really am a bit confused as to what you are asking...

Doral Ale House this is less than a half mile from the hotel 0.41 miles... what do you guy think of this type of menu/space

hey texas travler you can look for a roll call or start one if there is nt one by going here

true... my first thought was to contact a catering company... then i figured we would never agree on one or tow same entrees.. so i moved to plan B see the problem becomes i want EVERYONE to be happy.. and i know in reality that is not possible..

Dancing with you .... enjoy the anticipation... the next 22 days are going to be agony..... enjoy!

do you think Jim would perfer Hooters?

i heard Doral Ale House is nice..although i have no first hand knowledge

did you notice that big of a difference Pat?

now we are cooking with Canola

we are actually considering one of two runs: Mediterranean Tapestry (Venice to Barcelona) 7/26/2009 Mediterranean Tapestry (Venice to Barcelona) 9/28/2009

Hey Joey, You replied to my post on RCI vs. Carnival and I appreciate it very much. You said, "if it ain't broke". You helped me make up my mind on sticking with what I'm happy with. People of mentioned prices are a bit cheaper on Carnival. When it comes to my vacation and I've chose the cheaper price, I've been disappointed more than I have been pleased. Why take the chance, once your there no changing it. I'll stick with Royal Caribbean for now. THANKS JOEY, HOPE TO SEE YOU ON A SHIP SOME DAY. I'LL BUY YOU A DRINK. TRACY Tracy thank you.. your origional post actually what inspired this post.. here at cruise crazies we have some very knowledgable posters and i value their opinions.. many keep saying that Carnival has changed since our first cruise back some 8 years ago.. and they may have..and one day I may book with them again.. especially if cruisecrazies does an hawaii run like is being discussed..but as for now..if it aint broke... (but i got to be honest Tracy... i am beginning to hear creeks and cracks in RCL brands)

John just told me that barbs aft cabin is still available if anyone wants it you better act NOW... deck seven i believe( it doesn't cost to switch cabins inside same category) if you want it you better dial his number...

Great!! thanks for that ..I was getting worried about our reservations.....just kidding...no i am not..

i fixed the link sorry about that .. i posted the wrong code

did you get my email... that has the link written out?? Thanks Joey - came to Crazies before I checked my mail. All is fine now. cool

Jim Thank you.. excellent post
