Sorry Shoppers. On my favorite conversion site, OandA , I found that the Canadian $ is 1:1.03 to US. Doesn't look like there are any deals in Canada now, but we never know what will happen in 6 to 7 months.

oops, Looks like I didn't read all of Eugene's post.....

I wouldn't count on the C$ going down too far anytime soon, guys. I'd plan my shopping accordingly. As long as oil keeps going up, this will be the case, unless our politicians screw something up badly. Great for Canadian travellers like us (especially since we're now officially snowbirds), but not great for the tourist industry and our export balance. But, for now, it's the new normal I think.

Is anybody coming in early to spend time in Montreal or environs?

Oh shoot, I need to get more miles then. I thought it was 30K per night! So much for THAT credit card! No way I am going to spend 10K on the card for extra points rather than my airline card!

Olivia,
You can use a combination Priority points plus cash if you're short points. I think it's something like 30k points and $60. ??

Well, I hate to say it, but we've cancelled CANADA.

This is going to be a great party -- I really wish we weren't going to miss it!

Any other additions :) or deletions :( to the roll call?

I think final payment is soon so the cruise can't be too far in the future. :)

We have too Joanna, but since I now have two clients/couples with us, we are commited, we've pretty much done it too, but like you said, traveling with special friends ten plus $$$$$$ and you and Tony are two of those special friends, so just hang int here girl..... could be our last Regent for a year or two, and FUN2 just wasn't enough time to spend much together, just too much going on and too little time.

This will be me Joanna if you cancel :mecry: :mecry: :mecry: We have FUN3 booked too, but I am afraid we will end up cancelling as we have decided to put a screen porch on the deck and may have to redirect those funds for that project. We will see, still have some time to assess it all. We WANT to go, but sometimes you have to prioritize.

Looks like people might be cancelling....

Cat H through Cat C had been "closed." Now, they have been changed to "wait list." Of course, the prices are $2500+ more than when we booked last year. ;)

Any additions to the roll call?

Marc,
Just a clarification! I had followed LCT for many years but had not participated in online discussions.
We booked this cruise in March 2010. I just was giving our names as B&K may not have provided you with a complete list when prepared the original roll-call!

Ravi, B&K never provides the names for the roll call; we just provide our own names. Last I heard there are over 100 B&K clients onboard; obviously the roll call is a lot shorter. Looking forward to meeting you onboard.

Joanna and Tony, we will so miss you. Have a great time with the wedding!!!!

BTW, maybe a good decision to cancel; the last person we know who sailed in Suite 627 broke their shoulder on an excursion in Bermuda. :eek:

Boy that was not good news to start my day! (Canceling the cruise, not the wedding ;) ) Of course I totally understand but we will miss you and Tony very much. It sure won't be the same without you. But... Congrats to the happy couple!

Joanna, we will miss you and Tony VERY much. We will just have to have a couple of glasses of Pinot Grigio in your honor and to celebrate your son's wedding! Enjoy your very special family event.

Joanna, I'm sad for all the CANADA group who will miss you greatly .... however, congrats on your son's marriage. How fun that the wedding will be in Ponte Vedra.

Couldn't you and Tony just jump onboard for CLEO as a substitute????
