    Thanks for the info Ron.  Think I'm going to head over to Webshots.  Sounds like more fun than doing the work I should be doing... Surprise

    Hay Lizz!

    I was just finally able to get onto the album at classmates.com.  It was great.Yes

    There's another site that has a lot of info on the Splendor (photos, menus, pics of food):  http://www.zydecocruiser.com/splendor/splendor.htm  Enjoy! Drinks

    We are getting excited about the Splendor.  Just wish we could cruise one last time on the Pride before she heads out to Baltimore. SadBroken Heart

    Hey Linda~

    Yeah, I have checked out the zydecocruise stuff.  Printed out the photos of menus to send my mom and sister.   I think the ship looks great.  Pink dots and all!  Okay, now this is how really weird I am, but after dinner I always change back into something more casual and have purchased some polka dot lounging (pajama) pants to wear on the ship!   Now if wanting to coordinate with the ship isn't really warped, well...!!!!

    Sorry you are bummed about the Pride leaving Long Beach.  Actually, I had been hoping to book the April cruise on Pride, my boyfriend has been on it once and LOVED it, but I'm glad Carnival is putting SOMETHING in Baltimore. Not as far to travel as Florida or California for a cruise. Personally, I wish they would have moved the Victory to Baltimore and put something else in Puerto Rico.  Oh well, maybe next time they will ask us first!  Big Smile

    When I statrted this Roll Call almost 1 year ago, I remember my cruise clock reading over 350 days!! Now it's only 139 days and due to the economy and job loss this past Friday....I now have no choice but to cancel with the future being uncertain Sad

    What was going to be my 30th Anniversary cruise celebration on the Splendor on April 21st has just been sqaushed..just like that!

    Anyway..Have a GREAT time everyone..Have a drink on the 21st for me.

    Take care everyone..

    Re: Roll Call Splendor April 19th 2009 Mexican Riviera

    Ron, sorry to hear about your bad news.  You need to go on the cruise if there is ANY way you can.  Hold off cancelling until the final payment is due if you are able.  The cruise is over 4 months away and you will hopefully have a new job well before that.

    We lost our home in the 1994 Northridge earthquake (had to move out that day).  I know it's not the same as losing a job.  We had plans to go away the following weekend and my husband was just not in the mood as we were both so upset about our home.  I insisted on going and we did - he was so glad we got away.  It made both of us feel better at a really bad time in our lives.

    Hope things get better and hope you can go on your cruise!

    PLEASE KEEP THE PRIDE IN LONG BEACH!!!

    I'm so sorry and what a drag!  Like Linda said, hang tough for a bit and maybe things will change for the better and you will be able to cruise with us.

    Just bumping this one back up to the top! 

    F.Y.I. ~ at www.carnival.com if you click on the link for brochure/dvd there is a 'SPLENDOR' brochure.  Downloaded, printed and mailed to my mom last week.  Has most of the same stuff that can be found on the internet and for those people that don't want to print 40+ pages, can request to have it mailed.

    Okay Linda, I am 'assuming' that since you have cruised from Long Beach quite a few times that you have cruised the Mexican Riviera.  Here is a knucklehead question for you... all of my previous cruises have been Caribbean and of course the Lido Deck band plays calypso, reggae, etc.  What kind of music played on Mexican Riviera cruises, primarily at Sail Away?   Like I said, kind of a knuckleheaded question.

    Mucho gracias...

    Re: Roll Call Splendor April 19th 2009 Mexican Riviera

    Hi Lizz, so far, the bands at sail away have played the same - Calypso, Reggae music.  Of course, that could always change...  But it has been the same since our first cruise on the Tropicale to the Mexican Riviera.

    This is the tough choice...   The Pride is in Puerto Vallarta until 10 pm and there are some incredible restaurants in that port.  If you eat dinner in the main dining room, the Mariachi band strolls through and plays during dinner - they board in PVR to play on the ship, along with the dancers.  Just wanted to give you a heads up on this because we are always torn about dinner in PVR, then always end up eating in the dining room.

    That being said, the Splendor will arrive later in PVR but also stay until 10 pm.  My guess/hope is they will do the same in bringing on the Mariachis and dancers.

    So...  Is your mom going out tonight???  Are you all packed yet?

    PLEASE KEEP THE PRIDE IN LONG BEACH!!!

    Re: Roll Call Splendor April 19th 2009 Mexican Riviera

    Thanks Linda.   All of a sudden this morning I thought... "Oh my god!  I hope there is some calypso type music!"  Whew.  Feel much better now.  The mariachis sound like fun!  I'm sure we will do dinner in the dining room.  Not sure how much mom will be up to doing, and this cruise I want to be all about her and what she wants to do.

    Thanks for asking re: mom.  No not quite up to going out but she has told me more than once she would love to have a drink!  Just can't re: the meds.  Poor mom. Sad

    Packed?  No, but all the cruise clothes are hanging outside the cruise closet waiting to be ironed and put in 'ready' mode.  The carry ons are always ready to go... Yes

    Again thanks for the info... always good to have that insider scoop!  Big Smile
