Sorry, we'll be on the same cruise but Dec 1. Have a great time. I know we will. My Daughter just booked too. I am so happy to spend time with Her, SIL and Grandbaby.

We will be on that cruise, may even get to meet you, looking for info on the cost in US$ of some dive excursions, Can you help?

One more question, what are Frubals?

Hey Oscar

Here is your explanation of Frubals

Frubals

Have you ever heard the phrase 'instant karma'? Frubals (sometimes known as 'reputation') are a very close equivalent. Let's say, for example, you see a post that you really like. You can validate that person by clicking on the little scale icon that appears in that post. (It's toward the right-hand side, up top)

A pop-up message will come up, asking what you thought of the post and will have a blank space where you can write your thoughts on that post. The other member will have it noted in their "User CP" that someone thought that that post was worth frubals, and if you enclosed a note, that will appear next to the notation.

Click on User CP -- scroll down a bit and you will see how much reputation (how many frubals) you have and who gave them to you, along with their personal message. It will display the last 20 posters who have sent you frubals.

Scroll a tiny bit more and you will see how many you can give (reputation power). The number of frubals you can send each time is based on how much "reputation" you have acquired.

The message you get in your Private Messages box is the canned one that automatically goes out when someone sends frubals. The "real" message is on the User CP page

The more you get, the more you can give, but you have to have made 50 posts on the boards yourself before your frubals have any value to someone else.

Thank you Char, the info will come in handy as I try to master this site, again thanks

Oscar diver Yeah, someone from this board on the same cruise. We will be the family of 9 with the prettiest grandbaby girl Alyce.

As for diving it ain't my thing (unless from a diving board) but I recommend you dive in Caymen. According to a very good friend who goes all over the world, that's the best diving spot for Him. Go to Tripadvisor.com and punch in that question, you will get a ton of email regarding that.

Theresa in Detroit.
