I have sailed on the Triumph with you (ages ago) twice. I have enjoyed you as a cruise director. To me, you are the BEST!Last year, my husband and I went on the Sensation with Jen. She was ok, but not anything like you. Sorry Jen. We are sailing on the Legend in January, with Jen.We are Tampa locals, so Sunday, to get our 5 yr old son excited for our upcoming January cruise, we went to Channelside and watched the Legend leave. As soon as I heard the announcements during the life boat drill, I recognized your voice. I turned to my hubby and exclaimed, "That's John Heald!" Of course he wanted to know who you were and I told him only the greatest cruise director to grace the cruise ship industry.We understand that you have a schedule that you go by, but is there any way possible you can stay on the Legend until AFTER we cruise, please, please, please!!! lol I know, it's not possible. :( Have a great cruise this time and I hope one day to cruise with you again.

I have a video of the both of us ( our Jewel of the Seas ) and the Eurodam sailing out of port although she was a bit of a distance away. Lovely looking ship.

Twice now (Holiday in 007 and Carnival Conquest in 2008) my family and I have had the pleasure of sailing with a dining room hostess from Macedonia by the name of Slavica (not sure I got that spelled correctly). We were all so very taken with her, none more so than my young daughter. Slavica is so very classy, beautiful and friendly. She definately made both of those cruises memorable for our family.When we left Conquest in 2008 she was headed back to Macedonia for a long vacation and seemed unsure of whether or not she would be returning to CCL for another contract.If possible I'd like to know if she is still wih CCL and what ship she might be serving on. I can't imagine that we'd be lucky enough to have her onboard for our May 2010 Carnival Dream cruise, but that would definately be the icing on the cake!!It's crew members like her that keep us coming back to CCL.Thanks John.
