Well everyone, we’re down so close on our count that I can see the gang plank to board on our ship, can you? Hope you’re packed with your passport & Fun Pass in hand.Here is our final list of friends & family joining us on Roger’s Birthday Bash Cruise 2009…see you on board the Carnival Paradise. Welcome Aboard Everyone!!!!
Thought this would be a good time to share with you our philosophy on traveling with our group...
“Do what makes you HAPPY. Be with who makes you SMILE. LAUGH as much as you BREATHE & LOVE as long as you LIVE”.
It’s our wish to have you enjoy yourself and so whether it’s with our group or some quiet alone time to regenerate. Do what makes you happy! All we ask is that you also respect and are considerate of others in the group. It’s that elementary!
So allow us to thank and update you with our current participants who will be joining us on this cruise. Looking forward to seeing you on deck...
We are now on our third cruise offering this fun and creative contest for our guests…”Decorating Your Stateroom Door Label” As in all of our activities, it is optional as to whether you would like to participate or not. So you can give it a simple complimentary peel and stick the label on your stateroom door or get creative, plan ahead with photos & decorations and personalize it with your cabin mate till your heart content!
Each stateroom will be given an 8.5" x 14" removable label for your door. You and your cabin mate will have the opportunity to decorate as you so choose, providing that you do not damage the door and keep your decoration on the provided label as much as possible. Remember, any damages made by your decoration will be held liable by you. So be wise and smart!
Oh yes and for some individuals whom I will name nameless, a reminder to keep your decorations G-rating and appropriate for the general public viewing. I recall on our Mediterranean Cruise we had a little censorship as the decorations was not appropriate for public viewing. Carnival is a family friendly cruise so keep it General Audience!
A favorite past experience we had for doing this particular activity is the number of comments we have gotten from other guests who pass by our door. Our standard is to leave a pen on a string and post it notes and it’s so much fun getting notes, comments & even email address for follow-up!
Yes, Roger and I will be decorating our door...but we will not be in the contest, so fear not - one less competitor for you!
Just remember please keep your decorations on the label which is REMOVABLE so as not to damage the stateroom door. Common sense: you damage it --- you pay for it!
Oh, this is a perfect time to spotlight our friends Jean and Gary Jones who help assist us in creating these labels through their label company. If you need labels here’s the place to go. The Label Company contact is noted on the door label or better yet introduce yourself and give them your contact information.
Lastly there will be three prizes available for this contest and it will be awarded at our cocktail party. If you have questions, please feel free to email or call me! Looking forward to coming by your stateroom…
Just wanted to share with you that when the Roger and Diana travel production gets underway, we will always participate in taking travel insurance. It is a non-negotiable factor of traveling with us. So you wanna go, so does the insurance! These days we are not getting younger and there are more breakdowns then we want to admit. Plus, its our stage in life-our parents may need us or heck some may still have kids and they always seem to need us. This travel insurance has already paid off for a few of our guests. Alex will be providing you with a copy of our travel insurance in our final cruise documents. In the meantime, I have taken a peek in our 10 page insurance pamphlet and have provided a generalized summary as follows:
CSA Travel Protection
SCHEDULE OF COVERAGES AND SERVICES
INSURANCE COVERAGE
(Underwritten by Stonebridge Casualty Insurance Company)
Coverage Maximum Limit per Person
Trip Cancellation…………………… 100% of Trip Cost Insured
Trip Interruption….......................... 150% of Trip Cost Insured
Welcome Aboard! Are we gonna have some fun or what? Diana and I are thrilled to have you be with us to celebrate this momentous occasion.
Yee gads, 70? All I see in the mirror anymore is my dad and he is really looking old……………..what happened??Anyway, the ship is stocked with extra supplies of all of our favorite drugs and other remedies so for a few days let’s forget about our aches and pains and live it up in the martini bar and/or the disco.
PLEASE remember, NO PRESENTS……seriously since I won’t be able to pack things like Corvettes, flat screen TV’s, cases of gin, and other kinds of large/expensive gifts that I know you would like to bring………so, know that there will be awards for the most disgusting/sick birthday cards I will be receiving….. give it your best shot or not!!
See you on board,
Roger
