Jan - Love you writing. I needed a little giggle right about now. I vote for new glasses. lol

Thank for a great blog. I really needed a laugh right now

Welcome Marci - Great to have you here at Cruise Crazies. Thanks for sharing your story about your first cruise. I look forward to more posts from you.

Bon Voyage - have a great cruise. Please be sure to post your upcoming cruises in the Who's Cruising list so we can all wish you bon voyage

Tim - Welcome to the Blog forums. I look forward to following you on your planning of your cruise.

Thanks for a great entry. I think we have all been there, done that. Personally I believe the sea air shrinks the clothes in my closet. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Another great installment which leaves us wanting for more. I'm really enjoying your writing Stacey.

More!!! More!!!

Stacy - Great intro to cruising. Can't wait to read more.

There is definately a lesson to be learned. I wish you happy travels and happy travelers in 2012

I guess we have all met some of the people you describe here Petra. The only thing you can do is move on and not let them ruin your vacation.

Thanks for the great hints Petra

Thanks for the trips Petra and enjoy your trip to Melbourne.

Mix and match is a must, expecially for a longer trip.

While some cruises are better than others and we prefer some lines over others, I have never had a bad cruise. I think the majority of unhappy passengers are those that board the ship expecting a perfect vacation and while cruising is as close to that as you can get, things happen.

First of all welcome to Cruise Crazies. I look forward to reading about your adventures and picking up some tips along the way.

Like Rogue, once we had the taste of breakfast on our own balcony it was very hard to not have one. A list minute cruise last Feb. had no balconies available so we took an OV but it just wasn't the same.

Welcome aboard Danny. I look forward to following you as you sail.
