Bryce G. 78 Report post Posted August 8, 2013 Hi there! I'm Bryce. I live in Michigan now (I've moved quite a few times recently). First cruise was aboard Majesty of the Seas. Love the intricacies of the ships--seeing how the staff works, etc. I am a Systems Engineer, after all. Efficiency is what I study. 1 moosetrx reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DAVE(Darkcabbie) 181 Report post Posted August 31, 2013 Hi everyone my name is Dave and I have been married to my wife Samantha for 8 years and we have been together for 28 years. When we married in 2005 and as we love Disney we got married at Disneyworld in Orlando at the Magic Kingdom and even had Mickey and Minnie at the ceremony and reception it was the most amazing day of my life. We began cruising in 2001 and have been hooked ever since. Our other favourite things to do are going to the gym and playing golf and going to Disneyworld as much as possible. I own a small Chauffeur company in the UK which offers a personal and reliable service. 1 Matt reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mason 37 Report post Posted September 23, 2013 Hi, I'm Mason. I'm 33 years old and live in Perth, Australia. I'm a travel agent and cruise specialist, so I love my job! I'm going on my first RCI cruise in just under five weeks and am so excited! We're doing a 13 night cruise to the Pacific Islands & Fiji on Rhapsody of the Seas. At the top of my cruising bucket list is a cruise on Oasis around the Western Caribbean. I would love to visit Labadee! One of my nerdy little hobbies is collecting cruise ship models (the sort that are sold onboard). I am madly trying to collect the entire RCI and Celebrity fleets. 4 trainer.stan, VivienneC, Matt and 1 other reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bcarney 841 Report post Posted October 6, 2013 Right around the corner from me! Cruising must be a mid-Michigan thing... I too live around the corner from Tyler over in Grand Ledge. We should probably form some sort of support group.... :) 2 trainer.stan and Matt reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
