Hi Everyone!

Roberto and Stephanie here.  We’re still working on posting some special snippets from the first two days of the blogger’s cruise.  But, we wanted to take a quick minute to post the picture below as we know it’s long awaited.  So without futher ado, here’s John and Bid ED.

Its 7:30am and even though I am typing this blog through squinting eyes after having just had 6 hours sleep I must say that yesterday, the first day of the Bloggers Cruise, went really well…………….I think.

So, good morning everyone from the Carnival Freedom as we head to Cozumel. The weather though looks to be a bit grey and overcast and little white horses are strutting their stuff atop of the waves ………….. ahhhhhhhhhh. I hope the weather gets better, I know so many people have come from cold and miserable weather hoping for some Caribbean sun……….fingers crossed then.

So, what happened yesterday? Well the fun started during embarkation and as I went down to the lobby bar about 2 pm for a coffee I was attacked by a hoard of screaming fans who were kissing me, hugging me, ripping at my clothes and trying to drag me back to their cabin …………..and that’s just Big Ed ! ……………….OK, I drifted off into the realms of fantasy then but it was quite extraordinary as dozens of people approached me, most wearing T-shirts advertising they had seen my thingy.

Hi Bloggers – Stephanie and Roberto here.

 Day one has been completed. It’s definitely been an exciting day. It’s amazing to finally match some of the faces to the names we’ve been seeing for the past few months.

John will have a post ready in the morning, but we thought we’d give you a sneak peak from the welcome aboard party.

We’re going to finish unpacking and getting settled. We’ll see you guys in the morning!!
