Spicey477 Posted July 25, 2004 Author #3 Share Posted July 25, 2004 Hey Lois!!! I finally booked on the Caribbean Princess on 8/14, so I am super excited for it! After posting, I went to Regency....whew....3 hours later I felt like I was in a war zone with the tax free kids everywhere, but I got a couple of dresses and a shirt for Mr. Spicey at Belk and Dillards. I find that Belk had a better selection of formal dresses... I am going to head to Stein Mart at the beach tomorrow because they have the best selection. I realized I need some more formal stuff for this cruise! Great deal on your stuff at the Avenues! I didn't find anything that good... It sounds like you have some great things ready, plus from your last cruise, your formal pictures were lovely! When is your HAL cruise, taking a break from X?:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lois R Posted July 25, 2004 #4 Share Posted July 25, 2004 Hi:) Wow... you did well too!....Oh you are going to Stein Mart? Bet you will find some nice things! I am sailing on 9-11...this was sort of spur of the moment...I had booked X a long time ago.....was going to Bermuda with a girlfriend...due to an unforseen family emergency she had to cancel...and Bermuda is too much $$$ for me to go on that one solo...so I cancelled too and started to look for something else. HAL had a fantastic price on the Zuiderdam...going to the Eastern Caribbean out of Ft. Lauderdale....the price for a solo was too good for me to pass up. Hopefully I will have a great week:D You are leaving VERY SOON!!! One of the girls in my office is going on the ship you are going on.......her family is taking everyone in October! Have a great time:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
