It really is a pleasure to come to your site everynight and read all about the wonderful places you are seeing. You really are a very talented writer. I feel like I'm on the cruise with you. I have a cruise planned for Oct. 14th on the Pride. I have been on her before and really did enjoy her. this time I'm going with my daughter and my sister and her daughter. I'm trying to get my ten Carnival cruises in.. Then in april of next year I have put together a group cruise and so far I have forty cabins booked. This cruise I planned with all my friends and family. the name of this cruise when I made up flyers to send out ( no I"m not a Travel agent) just a women with to much time on her hands..I called it Carla's friends and family cruise..Now I went to Carnival's new site for tee shirts and guess what the have ? Yep you guessed it a cruise call ---friends and family so all I had to do is add my first name Carla and add our Ship Glory and we have our logo all done. So thanks Carnival again... All my friends think I have a special in with someone on Carnival. Have a great day, Carla Schillereff Hi,

Well, I am excited about the Bloggers cruise, but the timing may not be the best, don't know if I can swing another cruise so soon after our Thanksgiving cruise! Will there be another bloggers cruise in 2008 as well? Hope the next one is on the Triumph - maybe next Spring. My son and his wife are going on the Sensation for 3 days to the Bahama's on Thurs. May 24th, so both our ships will be in the Bahama's on Fri. 5/25 and we hope to meet up with them, wonder if they will be docked next to each other? We won't have access to phones so we will just have to try and meet on the dock, their ship will be in port till Sat. morning, but we both get off our ships at 10am so we hope to be able to spend time together there. We come back to Fla. on Sat. and they return on Sunday. Carnival must have gotten a lot of requests on the bloggers cruise, I signed up too as did Big Ed, and haven't heard anything yet. As I said I doubt we could make it, but wanted to find out more anyways. Write soon, love reading this blog. Voted for you on the Bloggers Choice awards this weekend.

I thoroughly enjoyed seeing the ones of the ship so we know what to expect (outlets, meals, Carnival Capers, menus and attractions). I did not know this ship had mini golf and basketball court so I was pleasantly surprised to see your pictures of them. Thanks for all the time you spent getting your website together. I, for one, appreciated it. SewingNut Hi Bill (aka zydecocruiser):

I have been on 6 cruises, 4 on Carnival and 2 on Princess. I look forward to cruising with you someday! I am looking into the Blogger's Cruise and hope to join you.I do read all of your comments in the Q & A as well as the blog information. I would suggest that one of the bloggers assist you by creating a FAQ that you can link to just like you have a link set up for the Carnival Freedom webcam and the Carnival website. Then you wouldn't have to answer individually every time someone asked you how many formal days, on which day of the cruise are the formal days, etc. I think it is great that you try to answer everyone, but I also think you are spending WAY too much time trying to answer everyone's questions! I personally would be happy with a blog about your daily activities, experiences, or people you meet every other day and a Q & A once per week with questions answered that are unique. I appreciate that you want to acknowledge everyone who comments to your blog, but it is not necessary to do so - especially when you are spending 2+ hours daily on the blog!Thanks so much for all the hard work you put into this blog and I hope to see it continue for a long time. If modifications or less frequent blogs are required to keep up the blog - I will still be happy! Marcia Hi John,
