Thank you Ngaire for giving us our new home! I have a feeling we will learn alot from you and each other here. Let the posting begin!

Karen

Okay, spill the beans....are you getting 3 Brown & Keene points for each post...how DID you get to 17 posts already???? hahahahaha

We have been talking for the last couple of days getting ready

ahhhhh....getting a head start on that tiara!!! I see what the game is!!!!

I guess we can start putting the word out.

Todd,
See John's custom avitar post. You can mail your avitar pic to him and he will insert it for you.

Karen

ok. Thanks KarenS! Also, I am new to luxury cruising. Will I fit in?????

PS,
I have been bugging John all day with questons...right now I think he is looking into adding the name of the last poster so we can click on that instead of scrolling thru all the posts in a topic.

Hi guys!
Hey, this is a cool site!

Welcome Marcie!

John, My photo isn't showing up either?? (actually I'm using a photo of Amos...my favorite cat) :)

Great, what a nice,cozy spot to converse! Thanks to all who made this possible.

Karyn

Welcome kmd!

Testing my signiture pic:

Poor John! I think I am using the correct ubb code for my sig??? I wonder why its not working.

Welcome Andi!

I notice this board is also very wide at least on my screen. Please remember we JUST started this and John is a gem to deal with all the technical aspects (and there are tons) so please bear with him as he gets all the "kinks" out of the cog. Sometimes I wonder if he has another job he is always so accessible to me when I need him.

You have to make it live to test everything out
and figure out the best way to lay things out.

I think John did a great job so far! After we figure out a few of the kinks, we will be raring to go!

The wide screen is coming from our long signiture files so that will be easily fixed, once we figure out what we are doing wrong :)

Hi guys! Great to be here, and many, many thanks to Ngaire!

Bill

Welcome NHCruisers!

Ngaire,
You are one of the busiest, if not THE busiest pereson I know...and YOU are ALWAYS accessible to US when we need you! :)

Looking great! Many thanks to Ngaire, Ken, John, and Karen. The quick reply is a nice added feature. :)

WOW! This is FAB!! Congrats on the new home. Thanks to all for making this space available.

Hey Welcome guys!

Hail, Hail, the gangs all here :)

This IS very ecxciting. Well I'm off to get my Directv installed. Oh, am I allowed to talk about that here?, well, um, I AM!! Will check in later. :D

Lord, I am such a geek. Had to say it before anyone else did! :rolleyes:

Hello Happy Cruisers!

Thanks so much for inviting me...I promise to be good! I'm happy we have a nice place to play.

Thanks again,and again AND again!

Marty, our "silverwhiteknight"...I love your profile!! Don't ever forget your harem....we need lots of managing!

Hi, everybody! Just slipped in, but you know how quiet I am.

Thanks to Ngaire - both for providing this meeting place, and untying our latest PG snarl!

Cerinda

Looks good here! Not too wide. Good colors. Responsive.

Yes, I also need to add my thanks. This will be great. And it is so nice to use my name & not the wh added on. Wish Laura would make it possible to do that on CC without contacting her!!!

Betty

Great board. Love it!!

Hello, one and all!

I think we can hardly contain ourselves in all the excitement. This is super!

Great job, John! Thanks, Ngaire!

Karen - help - Dino's picture is not here and I don't think I can post without it.

Thank you all for a nice place to post (hopefully without teacher slapping our hands!)

This is going to be great!

Joanne,
John has be linking our avitars from storage space here. I will email Dino to him so he can post it for you!

editing to add:
I guess I don't need to bother John, I think I figured it out :)

Hi Everyone!
Thanks for inviting me to the party!! I haven't posted much at CC and the climate there lately had me wondering if I ever would again. I have read about all your adventures and am hopeful that someday I will get to cruise with all of you. Since I feel like I know so much about all of you I feel like I should tell you a little about myself. (It feels "safe" here! LOL)

After 6 cruises with HAL and a few others with various other mass market lines, my husband and I had our first experience with RSSC last February when we were on the Paul Gauguin. Well, we are hooked and our next cruise is coming up quickly--March 20/Navigator. All of our cruises previous to the PG were either Caribbean, Mexican Riviera or Panama Canal. So there really is no comparing the Tahiti experience to our experiences with HAL. I'm really looking forward to the Navigator/Caribbean itinerary and making the comparison to our previous cruises.

We typically cruise once a year, in the winter (usually February to March time frame). So far that is our only option as my husband's job pretty much keeps us close to home the rest of the year. I will be watching the "group" cruises closely to see if we are lucky enough to join one. Not to wish my life away, but I look forward to a time when he is (semi) retired and options for cruising the Mediterranean and other wonderful destinations are possible. Thank you all for sharing your descriptions of your cruises to destinations that are on my wish list.

Welcome Jacki, Glad to see your post and I think you really will like the atmosphere here!

Hi Jacki:

Welcome, so glad you decided to post here.

Like you, we did many HAL cruises, but once we tried RSSC we just couldn't go back. I think your Navigator cruise will exceed any thing you've done on the Mass Market lines. We'll look forward to your review!
