Seriously I know that the four of us would definitely go for a martini clinic!  So w/ you and your wife that's 6 already!

 

This is going to be a fun cruise!  :banana:


Count hubby and I in on a martini or margarita clinic. 

That's an 8 count already (and in the past they've said they only needed 10)

I had never heard of the martini clinics till I started reading the NCL boards in the last few days and saw that they were cancelled.  Hubby and I are in in in for the martini clinic for sure.  So there, it's a done deal!  Tell them to get it on the dailies.  Oh right, it's 14 months away.

If they do a margarita clinic I'm in for that one too.:big grin:

I'm not a lush.  Really I'm not. :thumbsup::drink::martini:

Just noticed this in a posting on that other forum:

"When you have your CC gathering ask for a private clinic. It worked for us on the Dawn in April..."

We had 20+ members from our last roll call that attended the matini, and margarita clinics together.  We never asked for a private one, and made a few new friends at them even though we were a group. 

For the first Martini clinic I brought flashing martini pins for everyone in the group.   Several people in group wore martini pajama pants to the clinic, including me. 

The margarita clinic was held on Fat Tuesday so a couple of us in the group brought hundreds of beads......we passed them out to everyone on the ship during the day.

We might look like twins if we wear em next time LOL

BTW-thanks for posting the photo, it's nice to put a face with a name.  I'll do some digging & see if I have one to put up.  Usually, I'm the one taking our pictures so I'm not in many of them.

Here's one-Me on top a Mayan Temple (note the body of a God, as retired not expired would say "too bad it's Budda")

LOL.....I usually hide from the camera, my husband is the one smiling.  It's not easy to hide from the camera with Shoreguy sitting across from you.  :big grin:

Hey, great pics!

(and nice pants :big grin:)

 

I'm pleased to announce that I'm officially on this cruise as well!  Just got off the phone w/ Fran.  She says to me "Do you want the good news or the bad news?"

:shock:  Gulp!  I say "What's the bad news?" 

She says, "You have to book with me from now on!"   :lmao1:

Phew!  I can handle that! (after dis-lodging lump from throat!)

"The good news is you're all set!"

So I have paid in full and have two invoices w/ a zero balance due as proof (since I paid for my friend's cruise also).

:banana::bunny: 

Happy days!

Great news!!!   Isn't it nice to see the zero balance due.  I now have 2 future cruises paid in full, and one which will be paid off with BOA reward certificates.  Now to start saving up for all the shore excursions and bar tabs.

I should be working now......but I have a problem concentrating on Monday's.  My boss is pretty cool about it........since I'm self employed.  :big grin:

I can't wait to see what cabins we get assigned.  We haven't booked a guarantee since 2002, and I think we stayed in the same category.

One thing CTT doesn't have, that I actually miss from CC, is the countdown clocks in our signatures.   At least I haven't seen any, I wonder if they work over here???

Hey, I just checked my reservation on line and it now has the correct price and shows paid in full (this morning it was still showing the whacky price).

Now I feel super good!

Yippee!

Margaret, I miss the countdown clocks too...although I don't think I want to see the 433 days 'til our cruise flashing at me!

:smiley:

That's a lot of days!

I would also like to see auto resizing for photos that are attached if they're too big.

I just checked and mine is showing a $1200 balance......I really didn't expect to see it changed.

I checked about an hour ago and it was still "whacky" but now mines correct too...however, when I talked to NCL last week they said that even if it does show correct that it could revert back to "whacky" but not too worry about it.  So, if it does change again, don't panic!!!

cubechick-are your friends OK now to?

Yup we're all good.  I told them to get their butts over here to the roll call and the great folks here!  I also told them that I'd volunteered them for at least one martini clinic! :big grin:

Hmmm...I'll have to dig up a picture to post too.  I also am usually the one behind the camera!

Maybe we need to take a picture of each other taking a picture of each other.  Sort of like a gunfight

Don't even think about changing the name of that beach again.  I'm trying to research it!

I won't!  I post a picture of John Smith's Bay Beach later...along w/ Tobacco Bay & Achilles Bay (both of the later are good for snorkelling!)...
