Christmas on EOS

Charlie, the only "consultant" I saw was a bottle of Myers Rum, wine with dinner and whatever the bartender was serving you!!!

Welcome to the winners! Once again (since there are some new people here), I am the travel agent on this one.

To TRY to answer your question, if all goes as typical, then the cruise should be similar to this and next years. But probably leaving on Dec. 19th for 14 nights!

Departure Port: Cape Liberty Cruise Port, New Jersey
Ports of Call: Cape Liberty Cruise Port, New Jersey; San Juan, Puerto Rico; Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas; Bridgetown, Barbados; Roseau, Dominica; St. John's, Antigua; Philipsburg, St. Maarten; Basseterre, St. Kitts; Tortola, British Virgin Islands; Cape Liberty Cruise Port, New Jersey

Geez, I've never had such a long cruise in my life! I CAN'T WAIT! I won't know what to do with myself with so much time to actually relax AND do things. Typically on a 7-nighter you have to forego one to get the other. But with 14 days, I can actually accomplish both. YEAH!

Hi Marilyn, Hope your Holidays were great. I''ve been busy and I'm only about 15 pages behind on this thread The itinerary sounds great even if it is only a guess. Thanks for all your work on our behalf. I am excited for this cruise.

Note to self........ Do not miss checking this thread daily or risk a 15 page ketchup session.

Glad to see so many people having so much fun.

Charlie I'm not sure if the Yanks know what "Coventry" is.

Where do I sign up for the Roll Call?

Here you go, Sheila:

I refer to my earlier post regarding the teaching of English language.
Similar to the Amish practice if one is "Sent to Coventry" then you would be ignored or shunned.

Ok, so that sounds "bad"... wonder why the fancy, schmancy neighborhood near me is called "Coventry Estates"??? I'd love to be sent there!

Oh great, I can imagine how we're all going to be talking by the end of this cruise. We have our New York and New Jersey accents plus a Southerner or two thrown in, not to mention a few Texans with twangs - then we need to toss in our resident Irishman Patrick and now some friends from England. So do ya think we'll be talkin' the Queen's English by the end of the sailing or do ya'll think you'll be picking up on Brooklynese?

And don't forget "Ya'mon" Jamaician!

Well said what !!!! pip pip and all that rot.....

Do any of y'all go to Times Square for News Year Eve or do you skip the crowds and watch it on the tube???? It is tradition for us to watch it every year to bring in the new year.

Contrary to the popular believe that the whole island over there is England, there is a small chunk at the top which is Scotland. I am Scottish and Charlie is a Sassenach (Not a bad thing but definitely different)
I will be happy to teach y'all some Scots brogue. It'll sure sound funny with a Brooklyn accent
BTW I've lived here for 43 years.

Another Polar Bear here. Didn't win a cruise but decided that with so many of my fellow Polar Bears winning I had to join the fun and bring my grandson who will be a month short of 16 for the Zoo Cruise. It has taken me a couple hours to read all the post on this thread but it sure has been interesting.

Excellent thanks Tina!

You people have been talking up a storm! I had to catch up with 11 pages - and the last time I posted was December 23rd! Not that we're excited about this trip or anything, right?!

Hey it's 3pm. Isn't it about time for Ron to be waking up?

Someone kick him for us, ok.

Another Cunard cruiser jumping ship to join the Zoo Crew Hi, all, for those who don't know me yet, I'm Christina. Nice to meet all of you and looking forward to sailing with you - and of course, helping throw Nick overboard

Oh nice and after I treated you to dinner on Saturday. You just wait, Patrick is coming along and I'll both him and Eddie on my side

Just teasing Nick, I didn't know Patrick was coming along! Well, at least I'll have a dance partner, of course, I'll have to share him with Marina but, something tells me he won't mind

Don't you just love reading the messages? This is the greatest bunch of people!! I can't wait till I get to meet everyone!!

I think this is the first time I've wished for time to pass quickly. At my age, you really want the days to crawl by!!
