    THANK YOU!! I love the video blogs! They make me feel like I am there with you! John, you HAVE NOT lost your touch even though it has been quite some time since you were on stage for a welcome aboard show. I periodically watch my copy from when we were on the Freedom. Even though I know it by heart, it never ceases to make me laugh! So great to hear your voice! Thank you for including all of us, your faithful followers in your first moments on the Splendor! Looking forward to more videos!

    Wish I was there. The little boys reminded me of my 3 year old grandson. Great beginning to the shows. I have just discovered blogging and have really enjoyed the information about the Splendor and Dream. We took the Carnival Liberty cruise around Italy in Sept. 2005, and Sept. 2006. We really enjoyed the shows and John is the best cruise director! Thanks for the info and have a great cruise!

    Oh, John….adorable first-guests-on-stage!

    Do continue with the video blogs occasionally — they are wonderful!

    We won’t be making our daily “hits” to your blog thingy again until next Monday — we leave tomorrow for our 4th of July weekend cruise on the Carnival Paradise — true independence! :)

    John,
    You have not lost your talent! I keep watching this video over and over….I can’t stop laughing. Didn’t they teach you to never share the stage with kids or animals??? LOL.

    Hi, John,

    Love the video blogs. The kids are adorable. Have you lost some weight? Your collar looks a bit “loose” as if your shrinking since buying the shirt! You look great!

    Hi to Heidi.

    Your Pal,

    Myra

    Heidi, you got to help John keep his shirt tucked in. He looks like he just did the bedtime story and was attacked by Mary.

    John,
    Great video of your first show.
    Kids are always a hoot. Dillon was just too funny. Heidi is great with the camera she got it all.

    Good evening Mr. Heald and Heidi. This video just made me realize how much I missed on my cruise on the Freedom since you had to leave that week. I feel that I was cheated now. I missed your talent as well as friendliest. That’s life, I guess. You were great with the children as they were with you. Little Dillon was great. Thanks again with your ability. Ciao.

    My daughter was one of the kids you gave a magical medallion to on the Freedom in late March. She was rewarded that night with $10.

    I showed her your blog video last night and go figure, it cost me another $10 this morning when I found it (she made sure) under her pillow!

    It was well worth it! Keep up the fantastic work!
