Just spoke with the cruise folks and found that I can at least tell you it will be on January 24th on the Celebrity Solstice which I believe is one of their newest ships.

Hey Phil, on January 24th, the Celebrity Solstice cruises the Caribbean with ports in San Juan, Puerto Rico,  Basseterre, St. Kitts,  Philipsburg, and St. Maarten.  Is it safe to say that this is the next Paula at Sea vacation?
Don’t you just love the wonderful world of the web?! 

I have no comment!

Ok, Phil, can totally understand the no comment….however…..when you on the plane that is considered a free zone to talk…..or post on the forums.  Something about international not so much waters up in partly cloudy skies that are flown around and some other jibberish to make you believe this nonsense. So feel free to discuss the cruise info…......just a little.

Did that work?????

Tink, I’ve got my eye on you!  Now I’m gonna have to keep my flight details secret so you kids don’t throw a party while I’m away!!

Phil….I’m really not the trouble maker….well ok maybe just a little.  However, the free zone is for you while you are on the plane.  You can discuss the cruise with us since it really doesn’t count unless you are on the ground, at a desk, in a chair, in an office…...etc.  You shouldn’t be held accountable if you are in flight and the cabin pressure makes you do something that you normally wouldn’t do? 

Ok, does it work for you??  If not, please only keep your left eye on me, much better side.

works for me tink!

That is plenty of information !!!  FANTASTIC!! Yes, it is their newest ships.
Paula’s cookin at sea…again!!! Make sure the new agency reserve’s
Paula’s own “slot machine"LOL! Weather should be good.  Thanks for going
the extra mile to at least give us that much information.

Hey Phil, any chance that forum members will be offered a discount or special offer for the upcoming cruise? 

Did anyone else get the email today with the info about the cruise in January?

Yup. The price practically jumped off the screen and knocked me out of my desk chair. My entire week vacation to Savannah for me and Wifey will be less than half the cost of one ticket. 

I’m sure it’s nice, just out of my budget. I’ll console myself over Paula’s buffet! 

I was very shocked on the price when comparing to booking with Celebrity.  I went on the 2nd Paula Deen cruise and had a blast.
Im a huge Paula Deen fan but will have to sit this cruise out and settle for lunch in November at the Cooking Show…

Hey all, I’ll talk to the cruise folks and see if we can’t get some sort of special for y’all.

Thanks Phil…  your always looking out for us…..

Hey Phil! Did you ever get a chance to try to get us a better price on Paula’s January cruise??? Just wondering, it is awfully high compared to other cruises right now. They have so many great deals out there, but of course Paula Deen is not on those so maybe that’s the difference. For the others on here who took the last cruise with Paula, do you really get a lot of time to just visit and have fun with Paula, or is it all just group activities??? If she plays the slots often, I would surely get to see her a lot!! ha-ha

Hey Phil, Maybe some sort of contest for the forum folks would be fun, the prize maybe could be a private meal with Paula and Michael on the cruise one evening or something. That might get a lot of us to reach deeper into our pockets and find that money needed for the cruise! Just a suggestion!

Donna, I’m still waiting to hear from the cruise folks.  Don’t worry we’ll have more info and more fun stuff to compete for as the date gets closer.
