Little Man Tate We were on the

Little Man Tate

We were on the Splendor the first week of October this year. We ve been following the story all week and were shocked at the extremity of the situation, but amazed that it was handled so well. I had thought I d be finished reading your blog after we finished our cruise, but I guess not. This is really great writing and I hope you can get the story published somehow when you are finished. We would sign up for another cruise on the Splendor next week if it were repaired. My husband did the behind the scenes tour and met the captain and some of his crew and Little Man Tate so impressed with their professionalism and, of course, how they could all be on the cover of GQ. We didn t see you at all that week when we were on the cruise, except once on the TV. I think you might have been lying low a bit because Heidi and Kai were there and I think you were all sick. Thanks for writing your blog and keeping us up to date with the saga. Hi John, Now might be a good time to remind people about how important it is to go to the boat Little Man Tate at the beginning of every cruise and to pay attention. Knowing what to do can save your life. Dave and I have sailed on the Splendor seven times. When I saw the ship on TV I felt like I was there with you. I know they will take good care of her. Jo That was an exciting read. I am looking forward to the book and movie, of course staring Robbie Coltrane as the dashing and daring John Heald. Yvette and I are still looking forward to our upcoming 7th Carnival Cruise, now less than 30 days away. Your posting simply confirms the professionalism that all Carnival employees exhibit. Thank you. The passengers on this cruise were lucky to have you John. I took my first cruise with you in April out of Galveston and you were a real hoot! I am sure your prefessionalism coupled with your great sense of humor kept the passengers from feeling absolutely miserable considering the circumstances. Carnival should also consider themselves lucky to have you! Glad you, the crew and passengers are back safely. You and the crew did an outstanding job in the worse of situations. I cannot emphasize how much the fact that you are giving us an honest account of events and that Carnival does not prevent you from doing so is important. As someone about to sail on the Imagination and Miracle next week and the Splendor for 2 weeks in February the honesty is very much appreciated. Let me know if there is anything I can do for you, John, like buy you some new underpants. I hope the appropriate government authorities are keeping a record of what is said on this blog. My friends and I cruised the Carnival Splendor on October 10, 2010 to the Mexican Riviera. Due to the fact that you were our Cruise Director and made our vacation so fun. I would cruise again on the Glorious Carinval Cruise Ship with absolutely no worries whatsoever. You and your crew memebers are the Best! Thank you for the great memories. hi john I have never written before but now I can say how proud I am of the crew and staff on the SPLENDOR I know some of you personally and know that your are a carnival family I am very proud to say I have sailed Carnival for 25 years and will keep on singing your paraise to all my clients. Iw will be sailing myself in February you will be off the ship but am sure it will be in excellant condition. take care Jamaica Wow is all I Little Man Tate to say. Thanks to everyone for their heroism and staying calm in this situation. Great story john. Looking forward to sailing with you may 1st on the magic! I am on the edge of my seat waiting for more!!! Only you John can have me scared and laughing at the same time! So glad you are well!!! Kudos to you AND the crew. I feel honored to have sailed with you all! HOLY crap. I get shivers down my spine just from reading your account. I m one the voluntary Emergency Response Officers for my company, yet I can only imagine the emotions you and the crew must have gone though. From what I ve learned, you ve handled this situation brilliantly.
