Bloggers Cruise 2009 - New Orleans - Angelo Brocato, Embarkation

New Orleans, LA

DAY 1
Welcome Aboard cocktail party - this will feature the introductions of … well ………… me ……………two special guests and of course a chance for all of us to meet and have fun which will be helped by the one hour complimentary drinks service

Dinner - The bloggers will have a special area of the dining room reserved for main sitting. It will be open sitting but we will have special tables reserved for the various families of Cruise Critic, Big Ed, Cruise Mates and those of us who do not belong to one of the families…….sounds like the mafia. I will have a table each night and I will be joined by invited guests. I have not decided the best way to do this yet but I will make it fair and fun……..not that watching me chew on a steak is fun……….but anyway ……dinner, I promise will be a fantastic experience. I do suggest though that once you choose your table that you remain there for the five days. Many of you will know that the experience of having the same waiter is what makes meal times so much fun. If you have any questions about this, please let me know.

Pajama Party - This has been organized by Kuki and the Cruise Mates group but he has invited everyone to come along and enjoy the fun. I will have him tell you about this maybe in the days ahead………I don’t have any pajamas so I will have to borrow someone’s or I will be naked.

CABIN DELIVERY - THIS WILL FEATURE THE FIRST OF THE FREE GIFTS FROM ME TO YOU……AND NO…..I AM NOT GOING TO TELL YOU WHAT IT IS.
