Hey folks! First time cruiser here and the hubby and I just booked for our 6th Wedding Anniversary (and belated honeymoon lol). Just wondering if anyone else out there is going!

Bummer, I will be coming back on the Elation the day before you leave on her. Happy Anniversary and I hope you have a Beautiful Cruise

Dang, I thought I was going to be able to start a roll call, and here one was started a couple of months back. What's with you people, booking your cruises 6 months in advance??? Oh, wait, I book mine a year out...

We just booked this one today. The GF decided she wants a cheap weekend getaway, plus it gets us one closer to Platinum!

Sorry we're gonna miss you, Pamela. We'll wave hi in your general direction as we're parking the car.

Bummer, I wish you could have joined me, It would have been so much fun  But I know you have a great time on your Cruise. I think I am going to have the Elation all to myself, No one has answered my Roll call yet. WOW The Eltion all to myself for my Birthday . What more could a girl ask for LOL Let's see Oh, I know. Ohhhhhh Carnival, Can I have the Pride for my Birthday LOL

 Yay! Someone finally answered!!! I thought WE were gonna be all alone on the ship!

Where do you guys get all these cool countdown clocks??? 

I will be on the Elation the week before you for my Birthday Cruise. We just missed each other. Have a wonderful Belated Honeymoon I'm sure you will have a wonderful time And Happy Anniversary

LuvMyPride:

WOW The Eltion all to myself for my Birthday .

I had to ask special permission to go. My sister-in-law's birthday is the 15th and my brother's is the 16th of October. My eldest niece is the 4th.

Before you ask why I didn't invite them, I actually did mention it but it doesn't fit into their schedule this year. Maybe some day...

I'll be thinking happy birthday thoughts in your general direction come October.

If you see a cool clock that you like, most of the time you can click on them and it will take you to a web page to create your own. After that it will give you the code to paste in to your signature (under your profile settings) to add the clock.

You can't get to the website from my clocks because I hacked the code. I also make mine display the actual ship I'm sailing, instead of the "generic" one the countdown clock site uses.

Try http://www.countdownclockcodes.com/.

Darn you Matt!! You're supposed to be on MY Elation cruise!!!! WTF??

Thanks Matt. My Sisters is the 8th and mines is the 13th. She is suppose to go, But I don't think she will be making this cruise. This would have been so much fun if we all could have been on the Elation together. I will be sending Birthday wish's your way

Sorry, I tried! The GF won't have any vacation days by then (she's going negative just to go on the cruise next month) and neither of us will have the $$$. I wanted to be there, honest! I could have played the part of Clueless Tourist who offered to take your picture in front of the ship before the reveal...

Looks like I'll be joining you.  I just put my deposit down yesterday for 2 cabins.  Me, hubby and 2 kids (15 & 18).

Cool! I tried to reply to your post on the other site but it seems to get really sleepy after midnight on the West Coast. The Pre-Sail Away Parties tend to be pretty under control, jsut a bunch of like-minded people getting together to say hi! Consumption of adult beverages is strictly optional and rugrats are welcome, even super-sized rugrats.

Thanks Matt and I replied on the other thread too this morning.  I'm from Arizona, Tucson area.  We'll meet up on the ship one of the days I'm sure.

 Hi folks! Just wanted to know if we can set up a time and place to all meet up. Matt, since you are the most experienced person maybe you can make a recommendation? I've never cruised before so I am not quite sure how this works.
