Sapphire Princess: CM Get Lei'd 2/26/11

[Mike M]

I know there are a lot of you booked so it's time to start a "Meet on Board" thread.

My wife, Betty, and I will be onboard and if this anything like the previous "Get Lei'd" cruises it will be one heck of a fun time.

I know it's over a year away but it's never too late to start talking.

Post here if you are on board.

Take care,
Mike

My husband Allen and I are also booked for this cruise. This will be our first group cruise and we are really looking forward to it. I have been checking out some of the threads about previous groups and they sound like lots of fun.

Hi Mike! (Betty and everyone else)

Capt Ron and I are booked for this cruise. We were on (what I believe was) the last Get Lei'd on Island Princess and couldn't resist the opportunity. Especially for us, since it means no airline logistics!

We're looking forward to everyone's posts!

My wife and I are booked as well. We did this cruise on the Golden Princess a few years ago, but this will be our first group cruise. We look forward to all the fun!

[carmensmom]

Its been awfully quiet here, am I getting excited about this cruise way to early??? I have already been searching and researching this trip, I have planned and re-planned excursions and have about.... uuummmm, 10 to 100 questions to ask once this roll call starts getting active.

[dirknme]

Just a quick hello to our fellow cruisersers. This will be our first group cruise and we are looking forward to having a great time.
We are doing a Hawaii cruise this April/May on the Golden...our first Princess cruise. Any hints on Princess for us?
I'll be sure to let you know what we learn about the hawaii cruise.

Don and I are going to be there! This will be our first Hawaiian cruise, and I can't wait! It will be our 4th group cruise, so that tells you how much I enjoy them!

Does anyone have ideas for shore excursions, yet?

[dirknme]

We are leaving for the airport on Thursday for our hawaii cruise on the Golden Princess. It will be interesting to compare Celebrity and Princess.
Looking forward to seeing all of you in the spring!

Not to sound like the dumby I am, but why would people be posting at CC or elsewhere to discuss a CruiseMates group cruise, rather than doing it here?

BTW.. I do know there are more booked in our group, will be getting a list from Nancy soon and send out a group email to get the planning going.

[SharB]

Hi Kuki! This is just a combined list of Meet on Board participants (who will be cruising on the ship with us) from both sites, not meant to be a Cruisemates discussion. Hope that clarifies it. . . kind of...

[Lakers Fan]

Still trying to decide .One of us is 100% that HE wants to go ,the other (SHE) is still deciding

[dirknme]

Aloha!
Isn't it about time we started getting excited about this cruise? Has anyone made any plans or any suggestions for don't miss spots?
