Me! Ex-wives are fun on cruise ships! I have done the first one but number 4 looks like the one I can't miss. When?

The last cruise you and I took we were not drinkers.... Now we would have a great time. Dennis and Giancarlo could come too!!

Pumpkin Delight said...

I'd love to come! I would just be disappointed that we only got to spend about 5 minutes in each wonderful city and then I'd be all complainy so you'd have to get me all liquored up so I wouldn't be all upset. What if we bought our own ship and then just took months and months to cruise so we could actually spend a day or two in each city and really see it. I'm in if you are!

Ummm Jason....you do know you will be approximately 472 pounds after you return from all those cruises, right??

Seriously! My friends and I did some for spring breaks when we were in college. I quickly learned to pack a larger formal dress for the 2nd formal night.

oh wait. Maybe that was because I am a pig and not because of the cruise itself??

no. It's the cruise.

I don't see my house on there....

Gaston Studio said...

I have been dreaming about a cruise of late and any one of your choices would do at the moment!

Kelley with Amy's Angels said...

Are you going to take us all on this trip like Oprah did for her staff? : )

hulagirlatheart said...

I'll bring the limbo stick!

Justine said...

ROFL! You don't ask for much, do ya? Okay, break out the cruise-wear, 'cause i'm ready!

Justine :o )

Busy Bee Suz said...

I will be on board for the 'also' cruise. When do we leave????

Ami said...

Not in a million years.
There would be too many people. Crowded. Claustrophobic.

::shudder::

But you can stop by my house on your way up to Vancouver BC to catch the Alaska cruise... I'll bake brownies and introduce you to my kids, my hubby, all my friends and my geriatric dog. You'll have to stay in a motel, though. We don't have a guest room.

jlo said...

I'm in for all except the China cruise cause I would starve to death. I will volunteer to be your Julie because i have been on 75 cruises and I could be the activities organizer cause I'm fun. Plus, it would annoy Kim and that's always fun. I'll also be in charge of keeping Kim drunk because you KNOW how I love a drunk Pumpkin!!

g said...

Me, me!! I've always wanted to go on an Alaska cruise - although that Vancouver-to-Japan route looks totally cool!

sybil law said...

I think my crazy aunt has gone on most of those cruises, including one to Vietnam.

thevinylvillage said...

count me in!

When my powerball ticket finally wins, my dream vacation is to take a leisurely atlantic cruise over to europe...spend a few weeks doing all things european, and then cruise back. I think the time on the boat would be a perfect opportunity to unwind and adjust to the time difference.

Manic Mommy said...

I am so in for the the Australia/New Zealand/Pacific cruise! I'm a fun drunk; sounds like I'd fit right in!

Ginaagain said...

I am definitely in. Thank you for planning so many arrivals and departures from my local ports so that I can wave to my children every few months.

Grandma J said...

Buy a boat.

(I've been on two of those)

Kelly said...

Me! These are awesome choices!

Life with Kaishon said...

We should have a cruise for real. A blogger cruise. Wouldn't that be lovely? : )

Grand Pooba said...

I'm SO there!

Fiber Floozie said...

When do we leave?

SabrinaT said...

I am right there with you! Ian and I always joke that when he retires we are taking a cruise around the world... But, I can and WILL ditch him for you if you are leaving sooner!!!!!

Anonymous said...

I'm in for the last one!!!

Paul said...

Any way you could pay for me again? Just Kidding.

blognut said...

Let's get Apple Vacations or Carnival Cruises to sponsor this and we'll all go.

ree said...

I'll take #3 for free, please Alex?

Tami W. said...

Heck, I'd even go on a cruise to Catalina if you were going with me!

I'm packed and ready to go!

Cheri @ Blog This Mom! said...

Take me! Pick me! Pick me!

I will bring my husband. Heck, I'll bring both of them. One for me and one for you.

Sydney said...

Love it. I have already done the Australia New Zealand one and I HIGHLY recommend it, and in fact encourage you to move it up your list!

I give you credit for how long it must have taken to plan these out,lol.

Midlife Mama said...

Me! Oh me me me! I so am with you on those cruises! God, to be rich and carefree and I'd do every one of those in a heartbeat! :)

Joanie said...

count me in! Looks fantastic. Of course, if you lived on the ResidenSea, you could do this and never have to worry about setting foot on land you didn't specifically desire to set foot upon.

smiles4u said...

Me!!!! It would be a blast and just so you know, I travel well!

dkuroiwa said...

Karen said...

Jason,
I've been following your blog for a year but have never commented. Sorry! Anyway, I live in Ketchikan. If you would like any tips for the area just let me know. This is a beautiful place. I hope you have fun!
