Aloha to all of you really cool LCT members.

I have been on this board before as "Aloha Cruiser" -- but couldn't log on again with that name, so I've changed over to Island Girl.

I had the most wonderful time today reading Marcie's incredible journal from their recent World Cruise -- thanks so much for taking the time and energy to write it! The pictures were amazing too -- what a great experience just to take the trip vicariously through your eyes.

We have just booked our third cruise on RSSC, and our first on the Voyager (our previous two trips have been on the Mariner.) We are very excited to be going on another RSSC cruise, but I must confess I became even more excited when I realized that a lot of you folks will be on-board.

We are booked on the December 27 Panama Canal trip, or as it turns out the PARTY cruise. I sure don't want to impose or horn in on anyone else's party, but I wanted to check and see if it would be okay to at least introduce myself and say hi when I see you nice folks on board. Heck, I already feel like I know some of you from just reading these posts for the past few years. I can really related to all the pet lovers (when Marcie told the story of how she bought the dog food for the starving new mama dog, I couldn't help but think, "That would be me.")

So anyway, just a little introduction and a quick hello --- looking forward to your replies and hopefully to meeting all you good folks in December.

Mahalo Nui Loa, Happy Father's Day to all you Dads and have an excellent weekend!!

Island Girl - you found the right place under the roll call section to let others on that cruise know you will be aboard. I think you will love it! Please put your cabin # and name on the other thread; that's all you need to do! Marcie will update the list. There's another group arranging a group rate at a hotel in Ft. Lauderdale if you need to arrive the night before and are interested. Pam is leading that effort. Enjoy, Anne

Aloha to you all and thanks so much for your replies.

Marcie, I have to tell you that your postings were amazing, especially with the pictures to go along with the narrative.

I especially liked that you included all the details, i.e., the Ship's Bell you received prior to your departure, the Certificate you received for surviving the "Perfect Storm" -- it is those kinds of touches that I think really sets RSSC apart from the others.

I would actually love to hear more about what it was like surviving that storm!!

Looking forward to meeting you all. We are currently booked in Cabin #957 and we are wait-listed for a Seven Seas or Voyager suite. Maybe if we are lucky enough to get one, we can have a get together one night on board the cruise!

I'll keep you all posted, and have a wonderful day!!

Mahalo nui loa.

What a lucky girl you are! Kauai is our most favorite place. Hard for us to imagine anyone ever wanting to leave - even for a cruise!

Looking forward to seeing many posts from you in the future.
