You can use it as an evening bag if you feel especially daring. Congratulations!

How wonderful for you. Have the most fabulous cruise:)

Dance for just as long as you want :D Blue is a lovely color and anything that brings you that much joy can never be considered cheap or junky ( in truth the most expensive blue packet one can buy:))

H:)ppy Sailings ,I am very happy for you.

Best wishes Colleen

Do your doc dance -- congratulations.

Don't forget to save the blue folder at the end of your cruise -- just in case HAL stops them completely.

Nana, congratulations for getting your Docs, dance as much as you like knowing your cruise is fast approaching.

Doc dancing is good for your heart and soul:D

I like it when the blue folder is here, so I know how you feel.

And I am a dancing!! :)We've got 5 blue (and the rest black) but part of me still wishes we were still getting them. Even if there's nothing in there that you want or need, they're still a wonderful sign that it's almost time!!

Just out of curiosity - did they send you a Know Before You Go booklet? And an Excursions booklet?

I received a know before you go booklet, 2 excursions booklets since we are doing the eastern and western Mediterranean and customs forms, even though I did the on line check in, and my tickets booklet. SO much fun! I really can hardly wait, it seems like yesterday I was counting down from 180 days! :D

I definitely plan on coming back and giving this first timers impressions of everything from the ports, the staff, my cabin which at this time is nothing more than a guaranteed veranda, and the beautiful (so I hear) Ms Noordam. :D
