Pick My Birthday Cruise: Horizon, Pride or Vista

[allesonwonderland]

We did the Horizon 2 years ago and LOVED it. Going on the Vista next month, more so because it's cheap and driveable than for the ports. We had a nice mix of excursions on the Horizon itinerary--one through the ship, one private, and 2 other ports we could just explore on our own. We've already picked some pricier excursions for the Vista, mainly because we've been to these ports more than once and are trying different experiences. (Good thing the cruise was cheap and we can drive. LOL) Enjoy whatever you choose!

Another vote for the Horizon!

8 days > 7 so the Vista is out

Aruba and Curacao are amazing ports, can't speak on PC

PC will probably have an older crowd

If you want more options onboard, Horizon > Pride

Miami is a fun port to leave out of

I also suggest Horizon.  With that said the Pride is probably my favorite Journey ship and I am thrilled I'll be on her twice in the next two years in Europe.  And don't discount a Panama Canal trip.  It's awesome.

Thanks to some great casino offers and the mighty Cruise Gods for impeccable scheduling ... I'm going on the Vista with the girls before my birthday and the Horizon with my husband over my birthday!

 

Who says your birthday has to be just one day?!

It's always been a "birthday month" for me!  Enjoy!!

Hey !!! B/D girl !! It's YOUR birthday, ask your BFF's if it's alright if YOU decide, maybeeee (and hopefully) they'll see the common sense in this approach. But regardless, the MAIN idea, is to have a BLAST !! No matter what yall decide have a WONDERFUL cruise ! The rest will come naturally.

( P.S. YOU are NOT the only with lousy bad luck in the casino, That's why I quit gambling in 'Lost Wages' (Las Vegas) FORTY some odd years ago, I LOVE the city but my luck otherwise. Expensive lesson for me)
