Deckie Dear, blame me for the East Coast departure. I'm one of several who lobbied Janice pretty hard to make the reunion a Carribean or Canal cruise lasting 8-10 days. Since we're only able to get together every couple years, let's alter the departure port/coast and destination a bit. I'm personally burning out on Mexico already.


Janice and Reggie have picked some really interesting cruises. I could be happy on any of them. So, what deck are we getting cabins on this time, Deckie Dear?

This is going to be hard because there are so many choices, and dates. But you have a good list Janice.
Hi Rita...Whats ''FOY''???????????????

Not sure but I don't think a 10 Night B2B is a real option. What dates are best? Before Nov. 1? Nov 1 thru Nov.14....? Or after Nov. 14? Thank you for all your hard work and all that you do. There are other Lifters that would like to help and you don't have to do it all. We still have time and IMHO it is most important that as many Lifters as possible are able to cruise together again. I have already cruised with some Lifters and it was the BEST....Before we vote are all the Lifters able to have some input? How many Lifters would be driving to a Florida Port? I could help sending E-Mails....
I noticed in your list of cruises that you have never been to the Caribbean. It is so much nicer than Mexico and the water is clear and warm. Plus, the ports wouldn't be the same places most of us have gone to so many times already. As for a B2B, you are the only one who has expressed any interest in doing that.

I didn't put any 7 night cruises in because we went on an 8 night last time and I felt this cruise should have at least that many nights.

There are 11 different cruises to choose from on the list and I think that is more than enough options for everyone to vote on. I'm sorry if you don't like the choices but I tried to do what the majority of the group wants and that seemed to be the Caribbean.

Janice reminded me of something; the snorkelling in the Caribbean is far superior to Mexico. The water is crystal clear and warm, and you can easily see 20-30+ feet down. It's fantastic! And the stingrays......love playing with them!
