Tomorrow we set sail! Finally!

[ally10169]

I say Finally because we booked this last August so it has felt like forever waiting! My countdown clock started at like 270 days and now we are at 1!!

Thanks to all here for your reviews, answers to questions, comments, opinions, etc. It is SO HELPFUL to someone new to cruising. I will tell my DH things we need to do or not do and he will say "How do you know this?" . Well Cruise Critic of course! http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif Really the wealth if info here is great and I hope to do a thorough review when I get back to help other future Dawn cruisers.

Nothing will spoil this vacation for me. We don't get away often and this is the first time since 1997 that we have gone away for a week without the children. I am going with a very relaxed laid back attitude and this is VACATION. If something isn't perfect, so what. It sure beats a week of the normal day to day, cooking , cleaning, etc. Life is too short and this trip is such a blessing. Going to enjoy every moment and make the best of whatever comes our way!

Well lots to do today!

Bon Voyage!

Have a terrific cruise: waiting so long must have seemed like eternity. The longest we have ever booked in advance was about 4 months and that drove me nuts. good attitudes usually make for good cruises and great companions.
