Thread: Grand Princess - 12/17/11

Okay... I know I haven't been on this Board in AGES... but since I am doing some research, I thought I'd start a Roll Call...

Who else is going??

Also, what indy tourist companies would you recommend for Curacao? We've got our excursions booked for Aruba, but my choice was Curacao was no longer available.

Ideas would be helpful.. thanks!

Jodi - Thanks for posting - sounds like a great itinerary.

I'll do some side bar research and checking for you and see if we can attract some additional posters to this roll call.

You can check out the banner in my signature to claim a 5% discount on hundreds of award winning, independent shore tours and excursions, Curacao included.

I hope you enjoy your cruise - do I assume your on the ship for Christmas? Or disembarking in time to celebrate at home?

Welcome back Joho.

Jodi, fabulous news. Princess will have the ship all decorated for the holidays. I'm guessing you'll be off before Christmas, but it should still be festive. When you're onboard, there will be Hanukkah services going which is great if you're into jelly doughnuts (which I never heard of being a part of the holiday until I was on a ship during Hanukkah) and potato pancakes -- there should be a table with those goodies hopefully.

Well, hello stranger, nice to see you back here. Not sure if I could make this one, but I'll see.

Hey everyone!! Glad to see you guys again too! The ship leaves on 12/17 and returns on 12/24, so we'll be flying back towards the West coast on Christmas eve, but that's okay... means we'll be home in time for Christmas at Disneyland! LOL

Thanks for the heads up about the ship being decorated and Hanukkah services. My mom will be excited about that.

Anyone who wants to join us.... would love to reconnect with everyone!!

Tim,

I just looked at your website for my cruise... unfortunately the itinerary stated in your site for my ship is completely different than the one for Princess.com... so I'm gonna have to find another vendor that shows the same itinerary...

thanks for the head up tho!

I'm the ONLY one from this board who's going to be on this cruise?! I have the whole ship to myself then, huh? LOL

In re: shore excursions. I'll have to take a closer look. (They're a small sponsor in the site this month.)

Getting close now. I take it your going on a family cruise? Enjoy!

Yes, we are headed on a family trip... celebrating the holidays abroad... can't wait!
