Controversial Topics Several months ago, I added a private sub-forum to allow members to discuss these topics without fear of infractions or banning. It's opt-in, opt-out. Corey Click Here
Next time you're sailing on one of the ships and it's docked, look for the nicks and scrapes and you'll see that it's very dark blue. And I believe the story about the cast member's pants being the perfect shade of blue is told on one of the cruiseline videos/DVDs/travel channel specials by...
January and February are usually a bit rough, but this year seems worse than most. We tend to wait until March for our annual cruise, although this year we pushed it out until April. I'm hoping it's much warmer and the seas are calmer by then. :)
Some of my "must haves:"
extension cord
my own hair dryer
travel clock
travel sizes of OTC meds just in case
hand wipes
waterproof watch
binoculars
laundry bags
small notebook and pen
address labels written out for sending post cards
our address labels to put on...
I was just on the ship and only recall seeing the ones with the 2009 date and logo on them. They are half price, though, which was nice. I don't buy the albums but I always buy the paper kit.
I was one of those people parked by the adult pool that morning. It was our 4th time to Nassau and after taking an island tour the first time, we've stayed on board since because we weren't impressed. We do the same when we're in Cozumel and I'll admit that even though I have been to many, many...
It doesn't bother us at all to stop eating and pose for a minute and we usually end up buying quite a few of the photos on each trip. You can always say "no, thank you" if you are not interested.
Treasure Ketch has both regular and Italian charms for bracelets.
I also scrapbook and while I have not purchased the albums, I do buy the kits and some postcards each time we cruise.
The majority of our purchases tend to be photos from Shutters, though.
I was stung while at CC (family beach in the snorkel area) and the lifeguards handed me a huge container of vinegar and said to pour it on. I went to first aid and got some Benedryl just to be on the safe side. I was stung pretty good - back of both legs - and it took about four hours for the...
I bought the Canon housing for my SD750 and it works like a charm. More expensive than some other options, but I wanted one that would provide me with a high level of comfort and make it easy to change between scene settings.
We did this earlier this month. When you make your reservations, be sure to let them know that you are doing a back to back so they can link them together.
We did the four day and then the three day.
On Wednesday, we received a letter in our cabin stating that we would be staying in the...
We ate at Beach Blanket Bingo one night during our last cruise because our servers during that part of our trip were very slow - getting out at 11pm was just too much for me - and it was great. We loved the salad bar, it was a relaxed atmosphere and even though it was thisclose to 8;30, they...
Well, we are "good tippers" and have tipped individuals well above the minimum standards and have seen its impact on later cruises. When people see us, we are remembered and well taken care of. One time our former dining room server came to our table every night to make sure we were doing well...
