Susan, he's anxious to get it going too but there's too much to do right now and we're going to have to change our internet provider. He'll probably start working on it soon, but wait until after we get moved to post it.

You weren't with us on the Hooter's cruise, but that's just about the way it was. I'm sure we annoyed other aft passengers with our waving, hand jesters and yelling at each other off and on all day.

If you can stand the pressure of waiting you can always get a better price by waiting until closer to the sailing date. I don't mind an inside cabin since I spend so little tile in the cabin anyway.Celebrity had TAs for a little as $700 in May and there were others as low as $799 the week befor sailing. I've done several and it's always wonderful just being on the oceean.

Sometimes works, sometimes doesn't. As an example, it took me quite a while to talk my wife into taking the time off for the Constellation TA this Sept '07. It's been sold out (we think it is actually overbooked) and on "code red" for months. It's still in that status now. There's not much chance of a fare reduction prior to sailing when that happens. In fact, there's probably folks who won't even get a cabin. That's why we jumped on this '08 cruise at release.

I've also noticed in the past that the eastbound TAs tend to sell for less than the westbound. Having experienced losing an hour every day, I can understand why! I think the Connie's 06 westbound was sold out far in advance as well.

Hi Chris!

I never yelled or waved at anyone, I did however showed off my golden bronzed body by just wearing under shorts
