More Crew to come...
 

Carnival's cruise ship Triumph docked at St. Thomas.
 

Ahoy, Freepers!  Why not make your next year's vacation a FREEPER CRUISE? Can't think of a better idea!
United we stand for conservative activism AND some good old-fashioned fun, too!

This cruise thread will be running right up until embarkation day.  It'll be packed with lots of information.
Post your enthusiastic comments here.  Links are provided below for stateroom/fares information, registration form and
the Bahama Mama Q&A thread devoted solely to answers for all your cruise questions and to provide you with smooth sailing.

We strongly urge you to register ASAP.  We need a certain number of registrations by a mid-January cutoff date
to ensure our reserved block of cabins with Carnival.  From many communications we've received since last year's terrific cruise,
we're certain the interest is out there.  We don't want to have to deep-six this event if we don't get enough registrations in a timely manner.
PLEASE NOTE to hold off on making your air tickets reservations until we give you the go-ahead.
We have more than ample lead-time for this cruise and you'll be able to get good air-fare bargains in plenty of time!
Since some air-transportation tickets are non-refundable, we don't want anyone to be left holding the ditty-bag.

As an incentive for early registration, the first 20 Freepers to get their reservations into the travel agency
will win their choice of five (5) sheets of Ocents.com stamp sheets (go to that website for Seeking the Truth's array of terrific stamps!)
They will also receive a usflagballoon.com pin courtesy of Abner (check out Abner's usflagballoon website
to view the colorful pin and some excellent pictures of the US Flag Balloon!)  Registrations will be dated and time-stamped by the agency.
Winners will be notified and they'll receive their gift stamps and pins via mail.

We've got a great contest planned for later.  A lucky winner will receive a FREE cabin for two!
Last year, the contest was won by our Freeper pal, Taxman.  This time it may be you!

Bookmark this thread.  We'll keep you posted as plans evolve.  Register now for this fun-filled getaway in the sun!
Informal FRN meetings will be held on board which will be full of information and idea-sharing for effective conservative activism.

Rock the boat with your fellow Freepers!  Climb aboard today!
 

This page is for general comments about the cruise.
If you have questions, do not post them here.
Use the Bahama Mama link and ask them there.
Thank you!

Greeting, fellow Freepers.

Just a quick note to invite you all to join me on board the Carnival "Triumph" this May for the "FReeps Ahoy" cruise.

The cruise is sponsored by the Free Republic Network -- the activism arm of Free Republic.com. We're a non-profit corporation that provides assistance and educational tools to new and established FR chapters and affiliated groups. We welcome the support of every Freeper.

FRN is the premier conservative "feet on the street" organization in the country. We're the spark that ignites and motivates conservatives everywhere to get out from behind their keyboards to freep leftists wherever and whenever they pop up.

The national conferences and cruises we sponsor help FRN fund its activism efforts and educational services, as well as other special events -- such as hosting the Free Republic booth at CPAC at the end of this month. Your participation and your ideas help us to be more effective activists.

For this cruise, we're planning several informal activism meetings on board. They're guaranteed to be interesting and enlightening sessions. Plus there'll be lively open discussion periods for attendees to exchange ideas and to expound on classic freeps, both past and future!

My family and I are all looking forward to this great event. I hope to meet and talk with each of you there, and to thank you personally for your support.

FReeps Ahoy!

Nice pics, CCC!!! I really enjoyed that cocktail party on the first night! Cocktail weenies and all!!!

[MinuteGal]

Thanks for the great pics, Counter! You were our ACE cameraman on the last cruise.

I'm shivering (brrrr) in "sunny" Florida right now, and that fantastic freeper beach party we had brings back warm memories, believe me.

Freeze now, thaw out later in the Caribbean.....that's my motto, and I'm sticking to it!

Just in case either of those two do not meet requirements.

We must use quotas to insure minorities’ enrollment, the University said preferentially

The U.S. has halted oil shipments, N. Korea stated crudely

We will protect the homeland, Director Tom said Rigidly

We are restarting our nuclear weapons program, N. Korea said with abandon (I know, I know (v.t.), it sounds good though)

[MinuteGal]

A wind has come up and we're going to get wind chill in the 20's by morning......so, a freeze warning is up here in my part of the Sunshine State. Was busy this afternoon covering my tropical plants in preparation. Had to change from yesterday's shorts to today's jeans. Life is tough here in Florida!
