She talked about having to call the States tomorrow, so I think she got the messages left for her on her cell and private messages. :confused: 


You guys are a GREAT bunch of people. I saw your messages and PMs - thank you for the two who wrote me, VERY appreciated.

I just gor off the phone with NCL and I AM ON THE GEM with you all :banana::flowers::ooooh:

I no longer have the cabin I had chosen but an AFT on deck 8 I can live with and Jim can still drop the shaker in the basket from his cabin. :bouncy:

Pretty neat - I used Skype and the US toll free number and it worked. :smiley1:

Great...an aft party I think will be in order!    :thumbsup:


:moping:We didn't get an aft room.:moping:Too bad because I love parties.:moping:

 

:smiley1:

I told Win the trip changed back to the Gem and was cheaper.  Who knows.  Although the money would of course be an issue....the bigger problem would be taking 17 days off from work in the same month.  :shock::shock:  We'll wait and see what happens as it gets closer.

On a closer note, I finally got around to booking our room at the Microtel for next Saturday!  Woohoo.

I hate to interrupt this party, but we are also joining you folks.  We had the Jade for Jan. 25th...but decided to jump ship for our 2nd trip on the Gem.  Sounds like you will have room for 3 more?

Does this mean there is a possibility of both a blizzard and a wave on the cruise?  If so, then I am glad we are on the aft...we can go to sleep with seeing the Lady and wake up facing Matthatten and Jimmy's office and when the wave hits the bow of the ship wed shall be safe...correct? :devil:

Thank you for the kind welcomes.  We were on the wave cruise and five more since.  Obviously we were not deterred from cruising.  We even stayed on board the Gem when the Captain Petterstam from the Rogue wave took command, and quite well I can report.  I feel secure we will be worthy to sail with the Jaded cruisers.

Welcome aboard Eileen:big grin:

Always nice to have more join us. We had to jump ship too:sharks:

Although we were looking forward to the JADE, and a different itin.  we are happy to be sailing on the GEM for the third time. It's a very nice ship as you know.

Good morning OGG.  TGIF!!!I'm always glad when its Friday, but this week has been particularly slow so I'm really glad to see the end of it.

Chris, you're up very early today!!!  Hope you're able to make it next weekend!

Eileen, welcome.  I'm probably not going to be on this cruise due to family obligations, but I'll definitely be on the roll call.  This is a great group of people and you'll have a blast with them!!

Good Morning OGG's

TGIF

I hope everyone has a great day. I have the day off. I have to give blood at 10, then lots of errands to run. I am not rich, so I cant donate money, I give blood. They must really need it. Once my time is due to give again they start calling and calling........
