One week. One week. I am SO ready to "let the fun begin". When I booked back in July, I expressed concerns about cruising solo, well all those concerns have been completely wiped away. I've met such a great group of people from your blog and I'm already having so much fun before I even set foot on the ship! And the advantage to cruising solo? I'm only responsible for me and my fun!I plan on leaving my stress at the gangway, letting my hair and having a wonderful time on this Blogger's Cruise. The curiosity about all your plans is killing me! But I actually sat on the bus into work this morning with a little smile on my face and it hasn't gone away yet.So I just have to make it through this next week...See you soon.Cheerios,Laura Hi John & Heidi,

One week. One week. One week. I am SO ready to “let the fun begin”. When I booked back in July, I expressed concerns about cruising solo, well all those concerns have been completely wiped away. I’ve met such a great group of people from your blog and I’m already having so much fun before I even set foot on the ship! And the advantage to cruising solo? I’m only responsible for me and my fun!

I plan on leaving my stress at the gangway, letting my hair and having a wonderful time on this Blogger’s Cruise. The curiosity about all your plans is killing me! But I actually sat on the bus into work this morning with a little smile on my face and it hasn’t gone away yet.

So I just have to make it through this next week…

See you soon.

Cheerios,

Laura

You ran away to join a Carnival and became the ringmaster! It is amazing that you basically grew up to be what you wanted to be. You ran away to join a Carnival and became the ringmaster!

I'm sure the moderator or person that screens these messages has already e-mailed you and told you, but you can contact the ship directly. If you are worried and want to call the ship directly to check on your daughter, you may do so using the Maritime Telecommunications Network (MTN) shore-to-ship telephone service by calling 1-877-CCLSHIP (1-877-225-7447) or 1-732-335-3284. There will be a per minute charge. I got this info from the Carnival Welcome Aboard brochure, page 31. I hope it is just that her battery is dead and you have heard from her by now and all is well.

My new years resolution is to go to the gym again and get back to fighting weight so the ladies find me attractive enough finally. Any advise want to come with me. I can use the company thats for sure. Maybe a bloggers weight loss competition might need to be started. Crew opinions? Anyway still sad i'm not going to get to sail with you in a few days but I await the 2009 cruise details with bated breath. Soon please ok. I want to get a cheap price for a great cabin. unless of course I can get one for free ;-). Kidding but if possible :). Have a great trip to miami where I think you are by now. And I look forward to the onboard blogs with the bloggers. Kevin Mr. Aston who isn't sailing in jan 08 but will be in 09 John,

How's it going? I'm so bummed out that I can't be on the bloggers cruise with you, big Ed, and all my fellow bloggers. I hope you have a blast and I'll be waiting for all the reports from the ship. Only 25 days until I get to sail on The Carnival Liberty! I'm going to take your advice and do the swim with the dolphins in Jamaica. I don't know about climbing the falls because of my sight problem but I can't wait to do the swim. Anyway try to stay out of the dog house. Geoff does that thing you do and he has some bumps on his head too! Hahahaha! Anyway I can't wait for the next blog. Take care of you and Heidi.Leasa Hi John. How’s it going?
