Parrothead Cruise 2008 - Trip Around the Sun
Presented by the Atlanta Parrot Head Club

Join us for our tenth anniversary phlocking as we take a Trip Around the Sun! It's a Party with a Purpose: Parrothead Cruise 2008 supports the Atlanta Parrot Head Club's fight against breast cancer.

We will set sail on the Carnival Triumph on Saturday, March 8, 2008. We'll depart Miami, Florida visiting Half Moon Cay, Bahamas; San Juan, Puerto Rico; Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas; and Grand Turk, Turks and Caicos. We return on Saturday, March 15, 2008. We'll have a great lineup of Parrothead entertainment and activities and you can always count on a few surprises.

Details about the rates, the ports, the ship and much more can be found on the Parrothead Cruise website:
http://www.parrotheadcruise.com
You can also find pictures and stories of our most recent phlocking, Parrothead Cruise 2007, where we raised over $44,500 for charity!

Registration is now open! We are limiting registration to 475 participants and we anticipate the cruise will sell out quickly. The cruise is open to everyone, so please help spread the word to your Parrothead club members and friends. To register call 800-771-9300.

Interesting.

How nice are the ports, particularly St. Thomas and Half Moon Cay?

How good is the food on this ship?

My fiancee and I are intrigued by what sounds like a really fun time!

St. Thomas is great shopping! I have never been to Half Moon Cay so i could not tell you and i have not been on this particular ship but i have liked all of the Carnival ships i have been on so far!

Food has always been good and lots of it!

and traveling with a great group of Parrotheads and raising money for Breast Cancer Research is what makes it so special! I have made friends from all over the country because of the Parrothead Cruise!

Check out the link posted and look at the pics!

I don't know what I'm doing in March.... If I book this cruise, I hope I can take leave! Its in March... so it's not Hurricane Season

Problem: 'Stars Fell on Alabama' is in March, too. Which one to go to? I finally got the hubby to go to Stars and now the Parrothead Cruise is in March, too.

He liked the cruise idea.
We can't go to both.

you can get your deposit back up until December if you can't go! and there is always a waiting list so someone will take the spot if you can't go!

But i hope you can!

Sounds amazing. Would love to go. The checkbook is telling me the 2009 cruise would be a wiser decision

Once again, maybe next year (going back to Japan next summer!).
