  1. I usually lurk/sometimes post but just want to send good thoughts and prayers out to everyone dealing with health problems.

     

    My husband just completed chemo for colon cancer as well as two surgeries over the last year and I know how difficult and trying such health issues can be.

     

    Hoping everyone gets some much-needed cruise vacations in the near future and wishing everyone a healthy and happy 2015!

  2. Cindy, just wanted to say how much I enjoyed your review! I just finished it last night and now I want nothing more than to book a trip back to the Med!

     

    Your itinerary sounded great, too! Does Royal Caribbean still offer it? I can't remember seeing it for 2015 last time I checked (but they have so many itineraries, I could be wrong).

     

    Thanks for posting! I also appreciated your planning tips as a fellow obsessive planner. :)

     

    Happy travels,

  3. Hi everyone! I'm new to this board, but wanted some opinions on my two new formal night dresses. I plan on wearing these on my Mediterranean honeymoon cruise.

    I also wanted to say that I love your green gown, Marie. It looks stunning on you. And Lisa, I love all of your clutches and outfits!

     

     

    Stunning, stunning, stunning! I would say that I can't believe they're from Ross but I've found some amazing finds there!

     

    Have fun on your honeymoon! Which Med Cruise are you doing? We did Celebrity for ours and it was amazing, can't wait to go back someday.

  4. So, I have had quite the saga concerning my upcoming Getaway cruise. I went from an inside to a bump out balcony. Gained/Lost OBC. Lost Latitude points(lost original over 9 month booking date), had great/horrible customer service, you name it.

     

    Today I read a thread about suite pricing going lower on the Getaway. Start playing around and obsessing yet again.

     

    OMG! I took the plunge! After figuring out added OBC, taking away having to buy Spa passes, it turned out to be only $430 total more for the week for both of us to go into a Spa Suite, with Haven access. I am just giddy!

     

    And what is really funny is my booking really has turned into quite the file, as the PCC I called read all the "notes" attached to my reservation number from all the drama surrounding past changes...

     

    A Suite....

     

    Funny, when we first booked the Epic for our 25th wedding anniversary in 2010 the TA tried to get us into a Spa Suite and I declined, opting for 2 weeks in a regular balcony for the price of 1 week in the Spa Suite.

     

    Woot, woot! Now, if DH would be just as excited, lol. He just patted me on the head and said, "whatever you want, dear." He's Kray-Kray...:D

     

    Wow! That sounds fabulous! We had something similar happen on our Celebrity Med cruise - had an inside cabin booked, saw a deal online, called, got an upgrade to an Oceanview and actually got money back!

     

    Have a great trip :)

  5. This is the "Green" suit I purchased for our St. Paddy's Day cruise! I bought it at Bealls, but not on sale! :( Just wanted "green" and this was the best I could find. I did have a gift card & a coupon, so that helped! :D

    Oh, sorry, I posted this on the wrong thread!!!

     

    Oh my gosh, this suit is so cute! I'm so glad you posted to the wrong thread because this is the one I mostly lurk at. LOL

  6. We did a Med cruise in September and it was perfectly warm but not too hot. I'd say Florence and Venice were the coolest (low 70s) but a cardigan or blazer worked nicely!

     

    Everywhere else, it was shift dresses and shorts. However, I was always cold on the ship but that's probably just me.

     

    Happy sailing!

  7. I'm in northern NJ, and it's just been miserable. I think most of the country has had more snow than usual this year. Crazy.

     

    Wait, we're getting another storm on Wednesday?! I'm in Northern NJ, too, no cruise booked yet but dreaming of one now more than ever! :eek:
