I have been to Barcelona twice in May. Once you had to wear light jackets or sweaters since it was chilly and rained and the other time it was hot like summer

WE were on the Pearl in April. I was surprised how nice it was. We loved the Great outdoors area of the back of the ship for drinks , snacks and great ocean views.

We have always had good flights and major airlines and good times. But beware if you are going with another party you might be on different flights. In November we are flying with my in laws to New Orleans and we are on different flights. We change planes in Chicago and them in Atlanta. They are in thier 80s so i hope they can change it

We picked the 12 day June 9th one with overnight in Dublin. Cant wait!

We will be travelling to Labadee with my 80 yr old FIL who has bad knees. We always go to barefoot beach but i was wondering is there a better beach for him to get to without too much walking. Thanks

Take alot of black mix and match outfits and throw on scarfs for different looks.1 or 2 dark dresses should be fine.I really found that the less you pack the better and that basics dressed up with scarfs and jewelry are fine.

Our worst tour was in Istanbul.It was so crowded we got stuck in a traffic jam that made us behind schedule and our guide was just mean because they would get in trouble if we were late.Not because the ship was leaving so I dont know why!We were not even aloud bathroom breaks on a 9 hour tour.We had to run everywhere without getting time to enjoy anything! Our tour the next day was Ephueses and after literally crying to my husband I didnt want to go this was the best tour ever! It was just amazing everyone should try to see this once in their lives! I also really liked Capri Sorennto and Pompei.

fresh brewed coffee is only1dolloar at the international cafe and comes in a starbucks like cup which makes it convenient to carry around.

Emerald Beach has a good bar and a nice beach. We saw many crewmembers hanging out there.

They are like hotel dryers except you have to hold the button. works fine for me because i have wavy hair and just scrunch it on the cruise. It works great as a diffuser but i could not see drying your hair all the way with it.

You will love Princess. It is not nearly as stuffy as its reputation.They have great food and itineraries.We are are very casual and never really dress up alot[just semi nice] and we never feel out of place.We have cruised most cruiselines and like Princess the best.The ships are like staying at a nice hotel that moves around!

WE stayed at the Holiday Inn Express at the Stadiums and loved it. they have a criuse package where you can keep your car there for the week. shuttle to the inner harbor and port drop off and pick up. the drivers were great, loved the inner harbor. took a water taxi to fells point for dinner the hotel is clean and basic and not too much around it but the shuttles and service and free parking and breakfast were great. will stay there again!

Glad you had a good cruise! I recall seeing you at the sea club getting on the bus with our group going to the ship, we had a great time and hope you did also!!

I agree with you about the Sea Club. It is a great hotel for the price and a good location but not really a resort, alittle worn but a good place for 1 night before a cruise.
