Are you traveling?I posted this poll on CS as well...
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let's see who all will be traveling PC style? It would be nice to be able to set up some Chef Success meet & greets on each of the trips!

 

[pamela]

not travelling this year:cry:....but according to my goals, I will be next year!

 

[chefkathy]

There are two cruise options....I'll be on the Sovereign out of Port Canaveral with Kristi!!!

 

[chefkugler]

I'm out of Port Canaveral too.

 

[Mel5497]

[PampMomof3]

[pamperedbecky]

Out of Port Canaveral with Debbie!! Sovereign of the Seas!

Me too, me too! I can't WAIT!!! We just took a trip with the kids for a week after Christmas to my sister's wedding and I tell ya, with two kids (3 and 6 -and the 3 year old a very independent/defiant little girl) it's NOT much of a vacation. I'm looking at Leadership as a vacation, then the cruise in April as a BIG vacation because we're not taking the kids. Yipee!! I can't wait to meet those on the cruise out of Port Canaveral.

 

[chefkugler]

Well I did decide to bring my 2 boys. I made a promise to them and I can't turn back. I just booked our air today. It will still be a vacation. They are 7 and 10. They are looking fwd to the kids programs the cruise has for them.

Awesome Becky! I can't wait to FINALLY meet you! It's going to be so much fun! I hear that PC also pays the gratuities for us as well! YES!!!

 

[PamperedChefDebi]

I'm cruising out of Miami.

 

[pamperedbecky]

Yes, they pay ALL those little tips that usually occur on a cruise (the head waiter, waiter, statesroom attendant, etc) so it's SO cool!!! The only thing we paid for was our bar tab. I can't wait to meet you too!

 

[PamperedChefDebi]

OK, why are the rest of you cruising out of Port Canaveral? Do you know something I don't know?

 

[almondfarm]

I just earned the cruise at the end of Dec. When do I get the info to pick which cruise I want to go on? This is my first PC Trip

 

[chefkugler]

I picked Port Canaveral because I'm taking my kids. We are making a longer trip out of this and going to Sea World too.

 

[chefkugler]

There was a place for it on CC. I just went in and I don't see it now. I do know that registration for the trip opens up on January 28th.

 

[chefkathy]

It's where all the cool kids will be.

 

[PampMomof3]

It's where all the cool kids will be.

That's right!!! We're hoping to have our ENTIRE house tiled and FINISHED before our cruise so we'll truly be enjoying it and RELAXING!

 

[almondfarm]

Debi --
My husband and I have been debating, but I think we are going to cruise out of Miami so we can go to the Keys... so we'll see you there!!!

That's how we feel. We want to go to Miami AND the Keys.

 

[amy07]

Is anybody else getting pumped up now that registration is right around the corner? This is my first PC trip so I am over the moon happy!arty:arty:

 

[chefkathy]

Woo hooo.....we can register on Monday!

 

[dannyzmom]

DC registration opened up yesterday. I've been going back & forth about the flight times and hopefully we'll get it all settled in the next few days. I got a pretty certificate in the mail from HO for reaching Level 4...I can't wait to frame it!

HOw fun that registration is open for you! That's so exciting!!

Isn't that neat? I got a certificate too and it was just for Level 2! I may put it in the binder that I pass around at my shows. I haven't quite decided.

I want one!! Maybe I'll get mine today?

 

[PamperedChefDebi]

Yea, I want one too!

 

[amy07]

I got it, I got it!!!




ok, I'll admit I'm a sad little case when I get excited about a piece of paper! Can you image what I'll be like when my feet are on the ship?

 

[PamperedChefDebi]

Oh, me too! Totally! I'm going to be acting like a 5 year old with ADHD! (No offense....my son has ADHD so I REALLY know what that's like.)

Amy, what ship will you be on?

 

[amy07]

my hubby picked the Sovereign

 

[Mel5497]

Woo-hoo! We have our e-tickets for London!
DH is starting a new job next month, but his employers knew up front that his having time off to go to London was a condition of his accepting the job! (Really, we have to have priorities, right?!)
leggy

 

[Nanisu]

Yahoooie! I got our itinerary for London today! I'm taking my dd who is graduating from College in May--we're calling it our "girls around the world" tour. Just us, no guys this time!!! We are so excited! And I earned TPC so we get the extra day!

 

[Mel5497]

That sounds wonderful!

 

[almondfarm]

What is with the level 2 registration? I keep checking it and they keep changing the time it will be available and now it says avail at 1:15, but it is not available yet??? HO has a 58 min hold time, so didn't bother to wait, but does anyone have the scoop??

My understanding is that the Travel Agency is having some technical issues. BUT, I was about to register about 20 minutes ago so don't panic yet! Keep trying.

 

[amy07]

i just did my registration. Hope those of you who wanted the Majesty were able to get it. When I started it said it was full - ok for us as we wanted the Sovereign anyways, but WOW that surprised me!

 

[Mel5497]

My understanding is that the Travel Agency is having some technical issues. BUT, I was about to register about 20 minutes ago so don't panic yet! Keep trying.

Yeah Debi! Thrilled to hear you are taking the cruise. Hope you are going to National this year as well? Nancy may be going, so maybe you, Sandi, Nancy and I can share a room (Lordy, we'd talk all night!). I'm going to try to make the Tri-Cluster meeting in March...if I can catch a military hop out of BWI.

Anyway, congrats on the cruise!

 

[almondfarm]

I could finally just get on to register, but had to take Sovereign and wait listed for Majesty. I am pretty disappointed in how the registration was so messed up today and then not getting the cruise I wanted.

 

[pamperedbecky]

I was surprised too that the one ship was full already!!! Wow. Hopefully they'll open up more slots or figure something out for those who wanted that boat. I was happy because I wanted the Sovereign, but I panicked at first when I saw that....thinking it was the one I wanted.

I hope everyone gets on what ship they want!!!

 

[PamperedChefDebi]

I can't wait to see you in Mar! I'm not too hopeful about National because plane tickets are over $1100 and you know how hopping will be.

Are they using Travel Planners again? I thought they had moved away from them because of ALL the problems we have had... Sounds like if they did, these people are no better. lol

 

[chefkathy]

No they use Carlson for incentive trips.
