The Allure cruise is complete!
What a difference when the sun shines. This time we had sun every day like normal. ( a short shower is acceptable in the caribbean) But our normal has been sun ....sun....sun....and that's what we had this past April.
We were onboard with two old friends and two couples we just met for this cruise. ( friends of our friends) It all went well for the seven nights aboard the Allure.
We dined in Chops and Giovanni's Table and both venues were EXCELLENT!
No complaints about anything. A great cruise!.

The movie is half completed!
Progress being made daily. I'm hoping to be done before we leave for ALLURE on April 20.
My target was for a thirty minute film but I may have to expand slightly to get in everything I planned. I hate to lose footage to the editor, but he'll cut the fat out to keep it as close to thirty minutes as possible.
If you were on this cruise, thirty minutes will fly by.

It's coming soon!
Finally the movie 2012 in underway. I would like to get this movie done before we get on Allure on April 21. But no promises. Providing I run into no problems during production.... It will get done. Awhile ago I set the outline on paper and selected the soundtracks so its just a matter of physically getting it done. Soon. I'm anxious to get it done.

ALLURE OF THE SEAS 4/21/13
The cruise Critic group is starting to come together and soon plans will be made for our own private sailaway party. The official Meet & mingle has now reached the required minimum and I'm certain will only grow larger in these remaining months.
Historically, the official Meet & Mingle never lives up to what it could be, or maybe should be and for one good reason....... the time that got selected by the cruise staff.
When you are on a sea day and you secured yourself an ideal place exactly where you want to be, I for one, don't want to abandon my spot at 11 am because thats when they picked the time. Or another bad time was on Formal night and having the M&M at 5pm. So there we were, coming from the pool deck in bathing suits and cover ups while some are there dressed for dinner because early dinner would be right afterwards. Hence the groups private sail away was born. It is always on DAY 1 and right after the muster drill. Everyone gets to meet face to face on DAY 1. It doesn't have to be very long. Sometimes we met before muster...and afterwards.
Meeting the cruise critic friends right away is the very best way. There will be people you meet who are like your oldest friends in minutes and why waste a day or two before the official M&M.
The Mixed Nutz meet the day before and have a dinner. Some of course, are returning members and instead of just meeting them, you are greeting old friends. We started that officially in 2003. I'm hopeful for our next Mixed Nutz cruise we will have a number of "original " members cruising with us again. We understand how difficult it is to organize something that has to fit into so many people's life and lifestyle. But somehow, the allure of cruising seems to make it happen. This year as it turns out , will not have a Mixed Nutz cruise but plans are being made for 2014. Remember, the Mixed Nutz is open to everyone.
