We are off early in the a.m. for flight to Fort Lauderdale then Tuesday we board the wonderful Westerdam. I am so excited I'm practically twitching! It's the DH's first cruise and only my third - we are both thrilled. I think this will be a good week - good weather forecasts so far. Plus the little kiddies will mostly be back in school this week, so more peace and quiet for us. :D

My biggest worry is that US Airways will go out of business before our flight tomorrow. :eek: Not so worried about the return trip back to freezing New Hampshire, for some reason. ;)

Thank you so much to everyone on this board who answered questions and provided invaluable information. How else would I know how to pack, what excursions to book, and where the best spots on the ship are? You all are the best! - Jane (who has made her list, checked it twice, then a bunch more times - what am I forgetting?)

If your DH is like mine he will be hooked! It took me 15 yrs. to talk him into a cruise, I was worried when he was sort of quiet the first few hours on the Oosterdam. After we got home he told me he was was so astounded with the ship, service and food. Now he refuses to consider any other vacation!

Have a great time! Just make sure you keep the ship in great shape for us (we leave on the 23rd)! It's our 14th but we're almost as excited as if it were our 1st!

Jane, Bon Voyage and have an amazing time. I remember how I worried the first time DH came on a cruise with me. But not to worry ... he loved it.

Enjoy and let us know all about it when you return!

Don't worry about US Airways going out of busniess tomorrow - just weeks down the road people should worry.

We dumped all our US Airways tockets last August for all our up-coming cruises. Didn't want to take a chance.
