Bloggers Cruise

Carnival reports that the "first ever" Bloggers Cruise will be held January 19-26, 2008 aboard the Freedom. Departing Miami, the itinerary includes stops at: Ocho Rios, Jamaica; George Town, Grand Cayman; and Cozumel, Mexico. Cost: $600 each.

For those SoFla bloggers too busy to take time off from their blogs, may we suggest something less time consuming and expensive: MVB's Alternative Bloggers Cruise. It'll be a BYOB&F and much more "authentic." After an inspirational message by Ms. Dayngr, seminars might include:

Entertainment could be provided by Klotz. We'll rent a few row boats and row our way over to Monument Island and party on the beach. Activities? Whatever you want. MVB leans toward limbo contests.

When I first read the blogger's cruise deal, I thought it was for all bloggers. Damn shame it's a Herald thing. I would've participated. You know, some blogging workshops mixed in with tequila shots and Jamaican scenery. Sounds good to me.

LOL ... what is the direct link to the Blogger's cruise ?

Maybe we could do Miami Bloggers version of LOST on Monument Island. Wine provided by Stormhoek, of course. Oh and somebody please lube the obelisk and yes let's go stalk Gloria.

BoB, it's for all bloggers and as far as I can see, it is not a "Herald thing."

Manola, you are so bad but I like your ideas. In fact, I think you should be our "cruise director." Regarding the dirct link to the cruise info, I re-linked "Bloggers Cruise" to the original press release.

It's not a Herald thing -- the guys name is Heald and apparently his corporate blog has become popular.

The press release says anyone is invited to participate, but it's not really for bloggers, but readers of his blog (which he calls "bloggers" and not "readers")

Well, then, I guess that just makes our blogger cruise the real thing.

Sure, count me in for the entertainment: I get seasick standing on the dock LOOKING at water, so my "performance" would consist of rolling around on an undulating stage, retching up my adenoids. Ought to be, well, moving, anyway.
