Hey hey, Cruise Critic fam! Whoās suffering from cruise withdrawal? Who out there is staring at their countdown clock, willing it to move a little faster? Whoās mouse finger is just itching like crazy to push the button to book another cruise, but their significant other (or pocketbook) wonāt let them? Side note: in that particular case, ditch that significant other, they OBVIOUSLY donāt get how important cruises are to your mental health and donāt want whatās best for you. And if the pocketbook is the problem, dude (or dudette) that is what credit cards are forā¦.book the cruise. Wait, just kidding, donāt follow that last piece of advice. Thatās terrible, I should be ashamed, I work in finance for goodness sakes! Letās skip the advice-giving and get on with thisā¦.thisā¦.whatever the heck you want to call this. A hot mess, thatās what we shall call it.
This is yet another mother/daughter cruise (yes, I KNOW Mom and I just took a cruise together 20 days before this one, and yes, I KNOW I should feel ashamed at leaving Chris (my DH) behind yet AGAIN, but guess whatā¦.I donāt care, and I donāt feel guilty!) but this time we are throwing in a THIRD person to spice up the fun! Although, for those who followed our most recent reviewā¦.do we REALLY need to spice it up? I think we need LESS drama! Joining us is a former co-worker of Momās and mutual friend, who we shall call B. She has a warped sense of humor like Mom, and drinks like a fish like me (spoiler alert: we have the drink package this time, so WATCH OUT!) so this is gonna be a fun 8 day adventure. B sailed with us once before, back in 2019 and loved cruising and had been asking to go again with us. Now that things are back to normal (what is normal, anyway?) we are finally able to do so!
