Tpf - Forum Cruise Vacation 2007

[Robin Binder]

How many people would be interested in a Forum Vacation on a Cruise out of Galveston. We could plan this out 9 months in advance and go the end of the summer in 2007 - There are cruise as low as $300 and under - So lets take a poll - and comments are open and we could really plan a great Forum Cruise Vacation;

It would be heavily dependent on the date. There are two weeks I could make it in the middle of August.

I think this might get more traffic under the Open Talk section as well...

Here is the best price so far..

5 Day Western Caribbean from $319 *

Ship Ecstasy

Sailing From Galveston, TX on 09/08/2007

Itinerary Galveston, TX ; Cozumel, Mexico ; Progreso, Yucatan, Mexico ; Galveston, TX

Just in case people didn't know, on top of that $319 you also have a $50 per person tip that is added to your sign and sail card for 5 day cruises.

true, plus alcohol expenses at the end of the trip. I just got back from one 2 weeks ago and would do it again in a heartbeat

For the service my wife and I got on our last cruise, that was the best $100.00 I have ever spent.

Just keep in mind that the reason cruises are so cheap at that time of year is because it's freakin HOT and it's also hurricane season....

Freakin hot anywhere except Alaska. On the cruise we could have seminars, classes, shoots, liguor, booze, food, donuts.

I'm in ... I've got to experience one cruise before I get too old. It might as well be with a bunch of photographers from Texas Photo Forum.

I voted maybe. If I win the lottery, we will go... If I don't win... well if someone wants to pay our way... or we can't go.

[Robin Binder]

Idea - We could have each city put on Photo Gallery Fundraisers to help raise money for your own trip - (just an idea) - It would be like 11$ a week saved until the trip to pay for the trip...That is if you are a saving type of person -

[Daniel Bates]

I'd go, but I'm in Erin's boat (har har).

[johnastovall]

Oh Great GNU NO! Cruises go where there are tourist not travelers. The best way to plan travel is never go to tourist destinations.

Now for a Cruise, I'm looking at with retirement Freighter Crusing, now that gets to the more interesting places.

[Breezy]

I may be interested depending on if we make it to Alaska next year :D

Actually if I were going to going on a cruise I'd probably want to go to Alaska or Antartica. But I don't think either of those detinations are available leaving from Galveston.
