So instead of it being my one thousandth post

It'll be my 1007 or something. I wanted to thank just about everyone in here for a whole lot of enjoyment and knowledge about a subject we (and others) spend a lot of time and $$ on. I thought I knew everything I needed to know about cruising, or certainly enough to keep me comfortable in my maneuverings. However, like they say, one is never to old to learn, or at least be open to it. I have picked up all kinds of interesting info about the cruising world..including reading other folks opines about their trips. Especially folks whose opinions I have come to trust.

Seems to me most of the folks who post in here (both regulars and newbies) are the kind of people I generally wind up schmoozing with on board. Im in a number of other groups, under the usual assortment of NICS, mostly rather cold, technical or financial get togethers. Interesting, but not like this.

I hope from time to time Ive added to it, and helped some newbies along the way. Its really the only payback any of us can do.

We've got one coming up in a few weeks, even without the countdown clock. I still have a calendar on the wall, and fingers!!!

A wealth of knowledge shared and appreciated from many and a variety of posters.

Boston is actually a nice port but the getting there is not the best, traffic and congestion and what not. Right across the channel from the airport but you do get into the downtown traffic.

Nah, Im not from there, but I can vouch for you...wait...that might make it worse!!!

But that is the other side of the border!!Big Smile

Do I need a passport?Wink

They too have a cruise port Wink

Cheers!

(Wait -- wasn't that in Boston?Big Smile)

This was great! I am really starting to break in to cruise life as a real thing. it started for me as a fun little get away but I soon fell in love. I enjoy all of the company here and like AuntPinkie said I hope to meet more of you here. Reading the forum has become my favorite downtime activity. Seeing all of the opinions and learning from the masters like Yankee, AuntPinkie and JusMe to name a few. This is like the coffee house where everyone knows your name (I sang that as I typed it Happy) Thanks Yankee!

Thanks for re-posting your original thoughts. I agree with all of you, that this is a great place to learn more and share whatever we can with each other regarding cruising (mostly). I've made many friends here; some I've met, others not yet met (hopefully some day) and others who have disappeared (various reasons) from the board. You all make my day a bit brighter, even when we disagree. Also thanks to Simon and his team for all that you do to make this work, fixing it promptly when is doesn't (usually Wink).

Nice thread, Yankee47!

I was born way up North but raised in the South. Planning on retiring either here in TX or FLA.

These areas seem to have an "island attitude" about them.
