Hey Todd!!!

East Coast beats West coast!!!

My docs arrived at 12noon.

FV

this trip will be so much fun

this will be the first time i get to meet the lct people

just got off the navigator in sydney after 62 days

but i think the people here will be a hoot!!

Hey Victor, wow you guys are on FUN2 ? I had no idea !! It's been a long time since we've cruised together!

We are dancing in Boston too!

Marc - Frank and I are not going to be at the game, but our son Chris and daughter in law Adrienne will be, I think thats why they invited us for TG, so we could babysit the girls on Friday/Friday night. LOL> :p :p

yes marcie
been a long time but rosanne and i will be on board

just home from navigator
started as 12 days cruise from alaska to china
and we kept extending ending up in australia again where we finally met ngaire as she boarded on way to auckland


look forward to the party


ps we finally hit titanium !!!!free dry cleaning wow!!!

We're dancing too! WoooHooo! SOON ~ FIESTA & FUN!

Docs just arrived, yippee!! :banana: And I get another grey shoe bag !

Got mine aound 3 pm today! DOC DANCIN!

Fed-Ex just arrived on our doorstep at 8:45pm with our docs!

Got mine today also. Interesting there were two people on the FED-EX truck. First time I have ever seen two on a delivery truck.

Yippie!

I noticed on the docs that boarding time is 2:00pm. Does Regent strictly enforce that time (especially since the inspection will be going on prior to our cruise), or will it most likely be possible to board a bit earlier (say, 1:00)? I just need to make late check out arrangements with the hotel if we have to wait until 2:00.

Also, are the hair dryers in the suites good ones? I haven't had great luck with most in hotels and on cruises but am hoping Regent is different.

And finally, are there irons in the self-service launderettes? I know we can't bring travel irons, but I will probably need to press out travel wrinkles.

Thanks a bunch for any info!

Tami: We have always had luck boarding about 12:30 not sure how inspection will impact the time maybe someone else will know? - I have very thick hair dryer works fine for me but know some bring their own - yes there are irons in laundry rooms.

I recommend a good quality travel steamer.
We had a cheap one which worked so so then bought a better quality one. Really works well
and so far have not needed an iron. :D

Thanks Joanna and Jim. I guess if we get there at 12:30 or 1:00 and we can't get onboard, we'll just hang around and meet all you nice folks! I have a travel steamer...I just assumed Regent wouldn't allow it if they didn't allow the iron. I'll pack it and see what happens!

Sounds good Tami look for me - thick whitish gray hair :) :) :)

Our docs were at the front door too, when we got back today. The bag they came in is great for shoes, but what to do with about 20 document wallets. Maybe I'll bring them with me to Fiesta (without bags) so they can hold down costs - reuse them!

I'd be happy if they'd go back to the simple canvas zip bag they used for Radisson Diamond documents. We still have ours, well used for all those small things you just might need on a cruise - scotch tape, a tiny stapler, scissors, a tape measure, that kind of stuff. We bring it on longer cruises.

But not duct tape! We always bring duct tape - it's all too often a lifesaver.

Just five weeks now!

PS to Tami: if you're going to FIESTA on Jan 3rd, I believe there is a special luncheon on the 4th for Fiesta-goers, so that will be before 2PM. Check with Ngaire (presuming you booked FUN2 through Brown & Keene - if not, please ignore this) but you can usually board after noon. That day the CDC is doing an annual inspection, so it may be a bit later.

Count, unfortunately we didn't book through B&K. We just booked a couple of months ago directly with Regent and didn't know about Ngaire and her team until I found this website. We will, however, be booking any future cruises with her! Our flight doesn't land until 12:40am on the 4th, so I have a feeling it won't be a problem for us to just sleep in and plan on getting to the pier after 12:30.

Joanna, we'll be sure to look for you. If you see a 5'4" brunette with highlights running around like the Tasmanian Devil, and a poor, gray haired short fellow following her around, with a look on his face that says, "What have I gotten myself into this time," you've found us!!

Tami...

Your quote:
"Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away." is one of my favorites and my lifelong motto.

Looking forward to meeting you on the ship!

OH MY I think we'll get along fine Tami and husbands too!

:ch: :ch: :ch: :ch:

Yep sounds like a new LCT'er happening here I'd say. :banana: :lct:

man oh man

just off 63 days on navigator

and i am watching everyday for our documents!!

i really hope we are booked as it seems to be a wild bunch

You have a rough life, Victor! You were on that Australian cruise and never reported in to us?? I will look forward to meeting you and your wife on FUN!

Tami, I'm looking forward to meeting, you, too!

not a rough life at all

now cant wait to go on mariner
been a long time since on board that ship

and then waiting till august for another 24 day istanbul to barcelona on the mariner again

"for me to post regular woudl really really hurt my bar and casino time!!!"

BAR TIME??? I thought that was all included with Regent!!! :p

I am so looking forward to meeting all of you. It certainly does seem like a FUN bunch on this cruise (boy, does that name ever fit!).

Tami, Just wait :D <img border="0" alt="[beer]" title="" src="graemlins/beer.gif" />

Victor, you and Rosanne had no shortage of bar time on WC and SoAm trips (nor did we ). You're bringing back fun memories...maybe you can invite us to go out with your private guide, I'll find a malnurished dog and we can go buy her dog food again. :D

You will love meeting the LCT'ers, lots of super people on FUN2.

Tami: Ditto Suzie's wonderful post - you sure picked a FUN cruise with about 100 FUN LCTers!!! :app: :app: :3smile: :3smile:

where, oh where, are my docs?! - i'm feeling left out! -

guess what no docs to canada either


i sure hope they dont forget us!!!

well victor - i was thinking maybe it's because we don't have our suite assignment yet - how 'bout you? - i'm sure the docs will arrive any day now! -

4 weeks today we'll be on board! -

no worries on my part

i know they will show up sooner or later

and in any case i will be there with or wothout documents

Victor:
We got on in Sydney where you got off The Navigator.
Look forward to meeting you.
AND seeing everyone else again.

Doug

i have yet to meet a lot of lct persons
with 400 days on regent i am sure i have met a lot and forgot


there are not many of us that can say we have been on every ship the company has had


and remembered!!!!

I could of swore that I already did a FUN2 webcam post but I can't find it! Does anyone remember the post? I think we talked about that guy in FLL who was going to do a close up of us at sailaway.....

I think what you are looking for is on page 10 of this post.

Thanks Susan. I guess I didn't actually make a list of the webcams in port but I will do that tonight!

Karen,

Are you home?
