Always enjoy all your messages even though I don't reply very often. By the time I read your thingy and then all the comments, I feel there's nothing left to say, but I had to reply to this cruise idea.

Well, that is if you're thinking 2010. ;0 We are looking at that cruise on Princess, but I would much rather sail on Carnival. And write me down for the Diet-Coke, too. Not much of a tea drinker, here. Hey, John-

If anybody can swing it, I know it would be you. John:

We found Princess to be the most accomodating and priced within our budget. I asked my travel agent about Carnival- I've sailed 6 times and have 4 more planned- but no go. So you have 2 votes here for this itinerary- hope Carnival takes it into consideration. We would have to go out of New York- I'm in No. California- but no problem. It will be interesting to see some additions- hope the Blog does it's magic, you and Heidi are the backbone and sounding board for all of us bloggers. I read every day. Enjoy your short vacation- we all really do appreciated you blogging on your own time. John,

Some people and all of the Evil Krewe never forget. But it was great that you did catch up with us on the '08 Bloggers Cruise it was nice getting to meet you both. Since your arriving on the 5th for the '09 BC you wont miss the boat this time. BIG ED LisaK,

I'd just need a big headstart to save for the journey! So I second EastTexan2 in requesting we leave from Galveston. Ha! Thanks to Suzanne for the great post with pictures. We'd love to hear more from her; please encourage her to continue. Now with Anita's article going on MSN.com and gaining Lauren and the USA network crowd this blog will grow exponentially. Watch out world, here comes John's Blog Thingy! A (&J) PS We tried so hard NOT to read while you and Heidi were on holiday, but then decided if you were going to write them... Just don't worry so much about paying for the spa treatments if it gives you time to blog without taking away from "Heidi-time." Well now, you’ve just described mom’s perfect cruise itinerary.
