What can I do now that I am booked?

[Rock'n Robin]

So we are booked. I am booking the Hampton Inn for Saturday night and we are saving our pennies for excursions, photos, tips, etc. What else can I do? I want to do SOMETHING but it's so far away! I think I've looked at every cruise website!

I have gotten my kids into pin trading. They love it and I can get away with buying them just one pin a day on the ship instead of a bunch of expensive souvenir junk. I have been shopping Ebay for some inexpensive pins to give them now when I catch them being good. This adds excitement for me and the kids try to earn them by cleaning, doing nice things, etc. The trick is to not be predictable when they get them and they don't expect them every time they do a good deed. When they get on the ship, they will be ready to trade! A lot of pins are $4.00 on Ebay. Happy cruising

I am taking my first scrapbooking class in a couple of weeks. My plan is to work on the pics and other items we brought back from our land and sea trip last Dec. I figure that will keep me occupied until our 60-day mark, at which point I won't be able to think about anything but the upcoming trip.
