Established in 1639 it is the third oldest Parliament in the entire Commonwealth.Hope you get a chance to come back! Will Hey there,

Glad to hear you enjoyed Barbados – just wanted to provide some feedback on two points;

The service is poor depending where you go but like any country, there are places to go and places not to go – island time is something we suffer from – but it is a symptom of the greater Caribbean as well.

The Picture with caption of “A Church downtown with the Barbados flag proudly flying high.” is our parliament building of over 370 years. Established in 1639 it is the third oldest Parliament in the entire Commonwealth.

Hope you get a chance to come back!
Will

But most importantly, thank you for what you will be doing to help New Orleans. I hope that you get some local publicity to show the good work you're doing.Great idea John, going to Alaska with Bubba. Now why does that sound familiar? Oh yeah, I mentioned it a while ago. It really is a good idea to see Alaska and the West Coast. Maybe you'll do the Splendor in California too?I've been pretty lucky when I travel and haven't really run into many rude hotel people, or even airline people when I've had problems. But I have to tell you, every other hotel employee should take lessons from the Disney corporation and the "Cast Members". That is how to run a hospitality business.Enjoy yourselves everyone, Carol Hi John, Stephanie, Big Ed and the rest of the Bloggers,

We started sailing with Carnival in 2000 and have been receiving Current magazine for 8 1/2 years (with no problems). Our address has not changed (we’ve been at it since 1993), so I don’t understand why they had a different one for us all of a sudden. We have had a credit card and at least one catalog mysteriously change our address to somewhere in CA, so I don’t know if someone is fooling around with our Carnival information or what.Is there some reason why you can’t give me the real phone # of the subscription department? If so, can you give me a way to contact someone?Thanks again for your help!! LynnHope you and the bloggers have a great cruise!! Wish we were going too. Hi John,

(Please reply) I always agree with most of your comments but this time I had to disagree. Our son works in the movie and TV industry, one of the crew and as a parent which you will find out in May there is nothing like the feeling of seeing your sons name in the credits along with the likes of Michael Douglas or Keifer Sutherland. Even when it is a film he has not worked on my husband and I always stay to the end of the credits to see where the film took place or what music was played. I totally understand where you are coming from though. Love the blog and enjoying Jaime's reports. Would have loved to do that trip but will be content with reading Mr. Bills comments and viewing his pictures. He does a fantastic job. Hi Bill. Last comment when you go on the Carnival Dream again would you please take a picture of cabin 6490 if you get time of course.? Will you be travelling on the Transatlantic. ? Love to Heidi and Baby and of course to you too. Val. Port Rowan,Ontario. Hi John. (Please reply)
