you let anyone down? never...

you are such a sweetie...but isn't this forum supposed to be about the cruise? OK, here's a couple questions and requests.

I need any/or all info I can get on the POC we will be going to.

Questions:

what kind of excurions is everybody doing

do i need to go through Celebrity or Mr. John from now on out for anything

what's the weather like in Nov.

how much cash should I bring and who is going to loan it to me

how many pairs of shoes

i love to read but what about the weight of the books

Paper or plastic

ducktape or bailingwire

and finally...do I bring my sleepbuddy or leave him at home?

that's all i can think of in 2 minutes...

ANDREA - YOU ARE A TRIP, TRIP, TRIP - LOL!!!

Louise and I have pre-planned the days at St Thomas and St Lucia with members of our group.

I'm looking at tours arranged from the ship for the other ports but haven't made up my mind on any of them yet.

I'm looking at "A Flavor of Barbados," "Best of Antigua," City Highlights East" (Curacao), "The Best of Aruba," and St Maarten Island Tour."

Louise can't spend the day in the sun or on a beach so our tours are mainly tours of the various islands EXCEPT St Thomas and that's going to be a day aboard a sailing yacht (LOL) and we're going to play like millionnaires and sing "MONEY, MONEY, MONEY" from "Mamma Mia" as we cruise around St Thomas.

Questions:

ok answers!

do i need to go through Celebrity or Mr. John from now on out for anything

to make final payment and for any problems you may have to complete your booking contact Mr John.. if you call Celebrity most likely they will refer you to "your cruise consultant"

how much cash should I bring

I have never been one to advise on spending other peoples money... best i can tell you is set a daily budget and add 10 -15% for misc!

i love to read but what about the weight of the books

The ship has an onboard library...

that's all i can think of in 2 minutes...

That's all I can answer in 5 minutes...

Me, a trip...you have read my "car adventures tales"...and always remember, NONE of those WAS MY FAULT! the guy in the wheelchair had no right to the roadway!

and if want to adopt me...please do...I want to be able to go on some tours, but mostly I'm just going to be happy to be there...

The tour fee is US$65 per person. Its 5 to 6 hours. You only pay in cash at the end of the tour. We will be stopping every 10 mins for your photo moments. We will be visiting the banana plantation, fishing villages (Anse La-Raye and Canaries), also Marigot Bay where the movie Dr. Doolittle was filmed, then we will be stopping for breakfast where you can sample the local fish cakes, johnny cakes, coconut cakes, and different local fruits from the Island. We will be having a mobile bar with rum punch, local beer, water, soda. All the eats and drinks will be free. Feel free to have a drink at your convenience because the mobile bar will be with us all the time. Then we head down to Soufriere where you will have an overlook of the pitons, then the waterfall and botanical gardens. Then to the only drive-in Volcano in the world where you will be getting an informative guide to show you around. From the volcano we will be going to the beach which is the Jalousie Beach between the pitons for swimming and snorkeling, where we will be taking the water taxi. Where I will be paying the snorkeling fees. Please bring alone your snorkeling gears. After the beach we will be stopping for a drink and sample the local spice rum. On the way back to the north we will be stopping for the local hot bread and cheese for lunch. Our last stop will be 5 mins drive from the ship where you can do all your shopping for local souveniers to take back home. We will be leaving at 8:30am, You have to be at the gate for 8:20am. As soon as you come off the ship you walk into the building right in front of you, then turn right until you meet the security booth and there I will have a sign written('COSOL'). Bring along your camera. Because of the small changing room at the beach you can wear you swimsuit under you garment to save time. visit my website at cosol-tours.com.
