GothCruise 6: Noir Noir

90 days until Embarkation!

We're arriving a couple of days early (9/26) and are considering going to this night. Do any of you locals know anything about it? Or Club Purgatory in general? Anyone wanna go with us?

If we're not too hungover, what should we do/see in the Fort on Sunday? Is there an actual fort? :)

Hey people - I unfortunately lost my roommate for the cruise.  Of course this is last minute like most things with me - but anyone want to room with me?

Pre cruise dinner

I'll post this interest again as we get closer to the cruise date - but I figure I'd get a feel of interest for a pre cruise dinner like what's been done in the past.

Basically, if people want to do this - then I can offer locations close to the hotel and/or port.

Feh, can't post a poll without being a paid member - well, just respond w/ a Yea or Nea :)

Cocktails, again
[info]demortaine
So, if we don't get enough cruisers to get our free cocktail party, is it feasible to purchase our own cocktail
party like we did on GC5?  That seemed to work out pretty well.

Also, will we be getting "nifty travel bags" again?  Cause if they are the same yellow ones...I'm good.

So, if we don't get enough cruisers to earn our free cocktail party, would it be feasible to prepay a cocktail party like we did
on GC? That seemed to work out pretty well. 

Also, will there be a "nifty cruise bag'" like those yellow ones we got before?  Cause if it's the same one, I'm good.

Belize
[info]demortaine
My guidebook says "Belize City has, deservedly, a reputation as a dangerous place."  But I did just see a segment on Travel
Channel with the (insufferable) Samantha Brown, and it looked pretty good.  Kind of an up close look at some of the
activities and advice "if you are claustrophobic and dark water scares you, tubing through caves wearing a light on your
forehead may not be for you."   The $30 flight to Ambergis Key/San Pedro looked good, but don't know if we will have
time for that.  I did like that Samantha hates the idea of snorkeling (so do I) but she was willing to get in and swim with
the (nurse) sharks.  If she can do it.....

It's Goth (Cruise) Day on BBC 6

Today is Goth Day and the film director and former Goth Jeanie Finlay joins Nemone. She's talking about Goth Cruise The Movie, her feature length "gothumentary" about the enduring allure of Goth culture in the UK and USA.

Website

Just curious to see what's up w/ the website - went there and there is some generic page. It's not the page that was set up before.

Travel planning

Quick reminders for those making travel arrangements:

The website front page says "September 28 - October 2, 2009", but the 2nd is the last day at sea. Docking is on the 3rd, so you won't make a morning flight on the 3rd. Book afternoon or plan for an extra day.

Pre- and post-cruise accomodations are easy at the Holiday Inn Express, which is about two miles from the port. Rate seem to be a bit over $100 a night, but it's shorter to the port than just the ride out the causeway in Miami or New Jersey.


Still on the Fence About Going This Year?

Andrew and I went on this ship last June, and its a beautiful ship. If you've never been, take a look:


This is the Enchantment of the Seas, docked in Key West

More Pics Here )
We didn't get many pics in Cozumel - we were too busy enjoying the snorkeling! The waters around there are absolutely beautiful and just packed with interesting water life.

And this trip we go to Belize - it will be our first time in Central America. I'm so excited!

Grab a roommate and get onboard!

Cocktails
[info]demortaine
As of last Nov., we had 42 people signed up for gothcruise; what is the
current count?  (Not obsessed with numbers...obsessed with cocktails,
as in party)

I am still looking for a cabin mate. If anyone else is looking as well, please let me know. This is my first time on GC. Hope to talk to you all soon!

What hotels are people considering pre-cruise?  Is there going to be a pre-cruise gathering?
just wondering.
