Hi JOJE!! Wow time is flying by so glad that the countdown is in the teens.
Are any of you going to the meet and greet? It turns out we will be in Great Lakes since Monday I am so excited I can hardly contain myself. I have to refocus myself when I am at work lol.
We have a to do list hopefully we don't forget much. 12 days to go I pray for safe travels for all!
What is everyone's final plans on Thanksgiving? My SR wants to veg out in the room so I have placed an order for the whole dinner I want us all to enjoy each others company. I have changed plans a few times...all I want is for us to enjoy each others company.

Hi HoneyBeeQueen. My daughter and I will be attending the meet and greet - so excited! I have changed plans and changed plans and changed plans. I want to be flexible so my SR can do what he wants, but he hasn't given me any clues. I've got reservations for thanksgiving out. If he doesn't tell me soon if he wants to stay in, i'm afraid it will be too late to order a dinner to have at the hotel. I'm booked at Fairfield Inn, but wondering if it's too far?

We have reservations at Sullivan's, but my SR hasn't called in a while so I don't have a clue what he's like to do for PIR or Thanksgiving....made reservations on Open Table, figured I can cancel after I talk with him during the "i'm a sailor call"...yea, but what do SAILORS like to do on liberty???? We are going to the "Meet and Greet" and I can't wait to meet all my boot camp friends!
