As annoying as it can be...I love the anticipation of waiting to board the ship....My first cruise was in June...and i had No Idea what to expect..i was mezmorized by the site of our ship upon arrival to the port that no line, no amt to pay for parking (yikes), no annoying person that kept bumping into me in line...could irritate me....I would bounce a little out of giddyness as we waited for the first clerk to set up our S&S cards, then the xray machine (still giddy), then receiving the roooom keys (Now im really dancing in my shoes), up the stairs, escalators, PICTURE TIME!!! (biggest and cheesiet smile on my face)....up another escalator, "may i see your ID and S&S" card please?, Family infront of us "WHAT i just asked the lady before you if i needed my S&S anymore and she said no!!! Now i have to put all this krap down and find it again, UGH"...meanwhile im still bouncing up and down behind them as my DBF groans....FINALLY "welcome aboard" and then ANOTHER quick picture for the S&S card."enjoy your cruise!"..weeeee....ahhhhhhhh......can't wait to go through all that again :-P
