We are going on this cruise, we're booked mentally but we haven't booked financially yet since it's 16 - 17 months away and we are waiting for the price drop that's bound to happen

Anyone else planning to be onboard?

Yeah, Judy, you betcha Arnaldo and me is going too

I want to mention we already are planning on 2 days in Rome pre cruise and 2 days in Venice post-cruise!!!

Us too!

Maybe a 3 day pre cruise for us in Rome with flying from the USA. I have a little bit of time to figure that out

Ok so when should we start planning?

My #1 thing is going to the Vatican, Sistene Chapel, etc. in Rome!! I am thrilled to be going to Monte Carlo vs. Cannes too! We were going to be taking the train there last Nov and now we won't have to

Please, please say that you want to do a drive of the Amalfi Coast again

That's what we want to do this time since we've been to Pompeii now.

I haven't seen her online to ask her. I didn't have internet access from Thursday @ noon until tonight. I did post a mention to her on the BOTS thread, but I don't know if she swings by there anymore?

hanna · 05-04-2009, 01:12 AM

HA! I swing by everywhere. I will check it out

*Lars* · 05-04-2009, 03:49 AM

Please do check it out

Judy, we can start planning anytime

Yes, we want to go back to the Amalfi Coast

so Amalfi coast it is. Want me to book it already

I can never get tired to the Vatican so probably. Are we taking the train again?? whats the train schedule again and we need someone to get us those BIRG or BRIG tickets

In Livorno??? I say Luca and Arnaldo says Florence.

How was the mountain btw??? oh , I see you answered on the Brilliance thread.

I talked to Katie and she said she could not commit to something so far ahead in the future. Far ahead!!!!! She is calling either today or Wednesday so I will tell her the importance of fine planning
