Thread: Carnival Dream - Eastern Caribbean - 1/30/2010 Any BLOGGERS?

Brad,

I am very sorry that I didn't find you while on the cruise. My wife let me know that you had called, but when I checked the message to get your cabin number the message was lost. I know...lame excuse. We didn't purchase an internet package...we totally disconnected on this trip...so I didn't have access to here.

Enough of my lame excuses. Did you have a good cruise?

Hey there,
Wondered why we didn't hear from you. Sorry we didnt' hook up. In case you didn't know..............I was the guy on the stage professing my love for my wife every time JOHN said CANADA! What a cruise!
We had a blast and finally got to meet John. He's a great guy. Hope you guys had fun as well.
How was the day sail in St. Thomas? We went to Coki Beach and I did a beginner's scuba dive. WOW! I had a one on one instructor and another diver recording the thing in HD and I'm getting a copy of it sent to me.
St. Maarten we did a day sail on the Lord Sheffield tall ship. Not bad but a terrible snorkelling spot . They took us to the TIKI HUT site ...........pretty lame if you ask me.
Another highlight was coming home with some $$$$$ from the CASINO...........last hand on Friday night I hit BIG in 3 card poker.........finally got my straight flush and won over $500.00!!!! Yahoo. .....a deposit for the next cruise.
We're thinking of the Feb. 23rd sailing of the CARNIVAL MIRACLE in 2011. Care to join us?
Southern route.........Fort Lauderdale......Grand Turk, La Romanna in DR .......Curacao and Aruba. Sounds like a good one to me.

Let us know ok. Email is hodgsongroup@yahoo.ca

Hope to hear from you .

BRAD

Well, then I DID see you! LMAO! Nice dancing, by the way.

We had a great day in St. Thomas on High Pockets. Amazing sail, and the snorkeling was incredible. Here are my shots from that day. PICS

We had a fantastic time. We were cruising with good friends, and it was an absolute blast. We did a bus tour with Bernard's in St. Martin. That was a good time, but I think that next time we'll spend the extra bucks for more of a private tour. There were some pretty negative folks on the tour with us. It's just too much of a crap shoot when touring with a large group of strangers.

We stayed on board the ship in Nassau. I snagged one of the hammocks, and lounged there for a couple of hours...just decompressing.

Not sure if you caught John's morning show, where he was reading the letters. Our friend Pete wrote one about his wife Jen. I sent one in from me and my friend Bob, telling John that Pete had us all in the dog house...and asked that he put salt peter in Pete's dinner. I was surprised when he read it. We were out on deck and saw it on the big screen, and we were rolling. LOL Good times.

The cove balcony was absolutely incredible, by the way.
