The Free Republic Network Freeps Ahoy 3 Cruise is under way.
Easing away from the Fort Lauderdale port today the 22nd,
Freepers aboard Holland America's Zuiderdam are headed for Half Moon Kay.
Half Moon Cay is a private island resort reserved only for Holland America's passengers.
Freepers will arrive there tomorrow at 8:00 a.m. for a full day's excersion.
Check out the cruise itenerary below and join me in conversing with Freepers who will be filing reports form aboard ship.
Those of you aboad the Zuiderdam, Freeps Ahoy! I wish we were there with you.
Links on this map will not work. Please use the link in at the bottom of this post to learn more about the cruise. Thanks.

Have a great time. I have been on that tour. The Half Moon Cay is a lot of fun. I hope the water is calm so you can tender in. Sometimes they skip the island if it is too choppy.
I love those boat trips.

Thanks Snapple. Sounds like you've been there, done that. Next year... next year I'm cruisin with the FRN crew. Would have loved to have made it this year.
To: DoughtyOne
Looking at the map I'm thinking I would like to be on the Freeper cruise that can land on a free Cuba.

Try to ride the "water weenie," a long yellow inflated cylindrical raft, pulled behind a power boat. Looked like fun.
If nothing else, get off and walk through the beautiful white sand.

Well, stranger things have happened. I never thought I'd see a free'd eastern Europe and portions of the old U.S.S.R. break away. We can always hope. Who knows? Good thought there...
Friday evening the 21st, Freepers gathered to dine and talk before the cruise. (disregard stamped date)
More photos were taken and I hope to post them in the next day or so. (Courtesy DaleReed)
Right now our Freepers are cruising across the Caribbean towards Half Moon Cay. They'll arrive tomorrow morning at 8:00 am.

So do I. Where are we going wrong? Heh heh heh... Next year I'll join you there.
To: DoughtyOne
We are on our way to El Paso on Wednesday with the flag.
Something tells me that I would rather be on a really big boat than driving 2000 miles.... each way in our rickety truck. Oh, my back is hurting already...
El Paso should be fun once we get there though. I heard that our balloon is on two billboards!

Hey that's great. Have a good time. I'm sure folks are going to enjoy seeing your flag balloon. You'll see a lot of new places and meet a lot of new people. Wish I had the time to do that. Someday...
To: DoughtyOne
Any chance a FReeps Ahoy cruise might someday leave from our side of the country, you think? The Mexican Riviera is a nice cruise too and those of us on the West Coast wouldn't have to fly to get to the ship. I am having a harder and harder time getting Mr. Bear on a plane.
We've done the St. Thomas/St. Martin/Princess Cays cruise and the Western Caribbean. Hope they have a great time on this one, but how could they not? I am sooooo envious whenever a ship leaves without me.

I think I'd enjoy one of the Alaskan passage cruises. They may take a look at the west coast one of these years. That would be nice.
