If it wasn't you it is someone that sound like you and look like you.We (My Husband, Sister and Her Husband) had a ball in Downtown Dallas today. WOW! Setting the World's Largest Beach Ball Record. My husband who loves to video capture a lot of good footage for us to remember this Guinness World Records. We were back and forth between the beach ball video and trying to make sure we was there for the drawing of the free cruise giveaway. We have a cruise booked for week of December 8, 2008 for our 20th wedding anniversary celebration. We knew it would be a long shot but was hoping we could win a curise and turn it in for a upgrade maybe.John was so funny and a lot of fun just seeing him excite the people about a cruise and not just a cabin but a penthouse, the owner's suite. We could only imagine winning such a gift. It was fun listening to him describe those accommodations of that suite. We would love to enjoy and experience as John say...The rich and famous lifestyle but our names wasn't called to experience this hot and cold champangne suite of a deal.We have some memories capture on tape that will always bring a smile to our faces. John, the one family that was there in person to receive their cruise was blessed by you and carnival. I was crying with over joy when you made it possible for their beautiful little daughter to be included in the cruise with her parents. I would have given you a big hug and shouted for all to hear 'Oh John, you're the best looking cruise director in the world'. I can say this was a Great Day in Dallas, Texas!Esther Hi Carnival and John Heald,

We (My Husband, Sister and Her Husband) had a ball in Downtown Dallas today. WOW! Setting the World’s Largest Beach Ball Record.

I need an excuse to visit my girls' group friends, the majority of whom are from the Chicago area (hint-hint). What a hoot this would be. I'm sure my fellow Chicagoan's would be more than willing to help organize this in some way!Again, I hope to meet you in Philly!!Theresa (Dave and Faith too and hopefully my fellow NJ cruisers on Destiny 5/14/2009) I have loved reading your blogs since just a few weeks ago… looking for ideas… what about the world’s largest snowman from Soldier Field in Chicago or on Navy Pier even though I’m in NJ.

I waited and waited and heard nothing. I later saw you and asked you about this, you told me to wait 15 min and that there would be some coupons being passed around, or if we did not want to wait we could just go to the website and click on I WAS THERE. Well I did both, and found NOTHING! I would like to find the deal that you told me about so that I can book another cruise! Could you PLEASE help me! Thanks, Kristie John

Don't make any plans that are time specific, as you may not make it. I was in Boston on the day before the victory parade a few years back and what a mess that was. Good luck! See you on Sunday! I can hardly wait! Cheers! Derek Good luck John and all… getting into Philly on Thursday will not prepare you for the Victory Parade on Friday.

We had booked on the 6th September out of Dover as we fancied a different start to our cruise with a train trip down from Manchester followed by couple of days in London and taking in a show, then pop down to Dover and board ship. All very relaxed instead of mad dash through airport, missing luggage and just about getting to the ship before she sails. Que serra serra...... I see you recieved some stick on the live Q&A ... Not heard anything from out TA yet as we booked throughthe U.S.So will be toll free calling tonight when I get home from work to see what alternatives there are. Can you confirm if the Dreams first cruise out of Rome is 18th/20th or 21st September as I hav eseen three differentdates on different sites and forums as we may try this one even though its the same itinerary we did with you on the Freedom last year. Also do you know yet if you will be the CD on that cruise........ Regards. Wes and Liz John Please reply

We meet last Sunday and you had said you were going to have someone call me on Monday. No one ever called me Monday (or Tuesday or Wednesday).I think bottom line about my cruise, sometimes the CD does matter. It's too bad the CD couldn't have been you. You sound like you were a super CD and loved and admired by all. My cruise is over, no harm no foul. It was what it was and Ike couldn't have been planned for.Loved meeting you on Sunday, that was enough. Thanks for a lovely day. Hi John, just wanted to drop you a note.
