Selena, thanks for the mercy. 

Last year my wife had a tough summer with her appendix so in order to get points I took her on a cruise in December.

When asked if it was a special occasion I'd say "Yes, it's our appendectomey cruise."

Next month I'll be my "bladder cruise."

Whats funny is that both cruises are on the Triumph. Go figure. 

 

That is better the calling it the "Hemorrhoid Cruise" Ouch.

We are so ready to get away and do nothing or everthing if we choose.

Looking forward to meeting you all on the 7th. Thanks for you tips on seating and the other stuff. That was very helpful. 

 

Glad to here your back, and OK, Herb!

     Guess now you'll have to avoid the fried stuff(probably a good idea for any of us) This comes nowhere NEAR gallbladder removal, but none the less was no fun, I was out of action for a week with a bad case of the flu.Herb we hope you didn't spend it all on G.B surgery and cant spring for those drinks! LOL.  I hope Ms. OKOLDBITTY is OK, we havent herd from her in a while also.   Regards to all.     Chris. 23 more days!                     

 blessed, you won't go thirsty.  I have a friend who owns a bank, he'll float me a loan if I need it.

yea, I hope okoldbitty is ok too.  Diane if you're out there, yak. 

WHOO HOO YA'ALL IT'S ALMOST HERE!!!! SO EXCITED. IS EVERYONE PACKED YET? LOL. I MAY PRACTICE PACKING,I JUST KNOW I BOUGHT WAY TOOOO MUCH....IT'S A GIRL THING! SEE YA ALL SOON

Can't wait, this is our 3rd cruise on Carnival (twice on Triumph).  Our room is on the Panaroma deck, this time the son isn't coming. We will try to be there and meet, Thanks Herb!!

Chris and Rachel, noticed the anniversary timer.  When is it?  Ours is on Aug 28th, 08, 26 years.  So I guess you could say it is our anniversery cruise too. Congrats to you two!!  Hope to be able to meet everyone there after the muster drill.  Can't wait, Rusty & Traci

HI ALL! OUR 22ND ANNIVERARY IS OCT 31ST AND MY BITRHDAY IS SEPT 18TH,SO I GUESS WE ARE CELEBRATING TOO! LOL. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY/BIRTHDAY TO ALL COMMING ABOARD

BUMP

 

Happy Anniversary!  26 years is awesome.

We'll be celebrating three years on 9/11.

 I posted my invite last Thursday and will do it a couple of more times to make sure everyone see's it.

Don't worry about these storms.  I've got so may people praying that Hannah or any other bag of wind wouldn't dare mess with our cruise.

 

  You're Invited to the BEST SAIL AWAY & GET-TOGETHER PARTY
                                          since Noah built the Ark

                                         THE THEME IS

     LET'S HAVE FUN, FUN, FUN, TILL DADDY TAKES THE T-BIRD AWAY!

                

WHERE:  Deck 10 (panorama) one deck above the Lido deck pool, mid-ships.  The port side (left side of the ship) just to the left of the Calypso band (unless they moved the stage since December, best place to listen to reggae).  It's got plenty of open space and great views of Miami as we sail.  There are no tables on deck 10 but there should be lounge chairs to sit on.  In the unlikely event of rain we'll meet one deck directly below on Lido.  There's plenty of tables there but the photo opts won't be as good but at least we'll be under cover.  

WHEN: September 7, immediately after muster drill around 4 p.m. There will be 3,000 leaving the life boat drill at the same time so when the stampede starts please remember we're all responsible, mature adults.  PLEASE NOTE: This is the only time when "women and children first" DOES NOT APPLY.  (See page 1, rule # 1, A Man's Guide to Happy Cruising).  I'll buy the FIRST round of drinks for EVERYBODY!  After that it depends on my wife.  (See page 1, rule # 1, A Man's Guide to a Happy Marriage)
    
BADGES: I'll have those stinking badges that say, "Hello my name is" (which you have to wear) so we won't have to say "What's your name?" over 100 times.  It'll help us get better acquainted.

BEACON: Since I started the let's get together thread I guess I'm the Guiding Light.  I couldn't get my Big Bird outfit in my suitcase, sorry, but It'll be easy to find me.  Just look for the BIGGEST MICKEY T-shirt you've EVER seen in your life—standing underneath my shiny bald head.

Herb, look forward to seeing everybody on deck!!  Look's like smooth sailing for us, don't know about our return port but that's at the end.  Here's to our bonVoyage!!  Rusty

I am pretty sure my friend and I are going to be up there looking for all of you....
