I'm definately giving it serious consideration. My B-Day is April 3, and I almost always tahe a birthday cruise. No reason I can't put it off a few days. RCCL is not one of my favorites, but if we get a group, we'll amke our own fun!

HAVE A FANTASTIC TIME! WE'LL MISS YOU. AS YOU LEAVE THE PORT, TODAY, LIFT A FROZEN THINGEE AND TOAST THOSE OF US YOU LEFT BEHIND.....[/size]

Wow! You sure had an interesting first-cruise experience... I have had many, but none that even come close. You can read some of them if you go to the left side of the screen and click "Sea of Memories," or click http://www.cruisecrazies.com/som/index.php

Hey, Jason, bring some to [/size]CruzCraziness!I know I'll buy one![/size]

Well, SMB, if you really wanted to come here you'd find a way.....that goes for all the rest of you!

Gee, and I was all worried about you being in the Cargo Hold.....

IT'S[/size]CruzCraziness!![

Sorry to say it, but I was not very happy with Costa. I've sailed all of the lines you've listed, plus a few more, and would put Costa on the bottom of the list. I was, mainly, disappointed with the food. I like pasta, but not thrown at me, in dozens of forms, every meal except breakfast. The other foods, other thatn pasta, were mediocre at best. The service, I will say, was excellent. I was also disappoimted with the entertainment. I sailed Costa once, and vowed it wouldn't happen again. It hasn't....

We'll miss you Rose.... Next time for sure!![/size]

DANCIN' WITH YOU !!![/size]

Thanks for the review, Lisa. Glad you had a nice cruise. I agree with you!! I oce the Century, the Zenith and Carnival's Holiday. Great size ships! Big enough to have evrything and small enough to be cozy.

Excellent, and very thorough, review. Sorry to hear about the food; Celebrity has always been my favorite, as far as the food goes. Hope RCCI isn't screwing it up.

Hey, Cheryl, who are the 17?

CRUISECRAZIES CELEBRATION [/size] Gonna be a blast! DON'T MISS IT !!! Yes, everybody, the first big CruiseCrazies get-together is really happening! So, c'mon down! We're going to have a great time and you don't want to miss it! .................................................................................................................................................. We're meeting next Friday, at 7:45 pm; THE QUARTERDECK RESTAURANT; 1541 Cordova Road; Ft. Lauderdale. Reservation under "CruiseCrazies." Cordova Rd. is just off the 17th Stree Causeway. From Federal Highway head east. Turn left on Cordova Rd. ..................................................................................................................................................

I've sailed solo on several cruises. The Regal Empress has 4 single cabins, so no problem there with simgle supplements. The single rate in the single cabins is the same as the per person rate in the doubles. But, the ship only does two-night cruises. Because I live near the ports (Miami/Ft. Laud) I usually book 'last minute.' My PVP at Carnival is happy to fill a cabin, at that late date, so she books me at the lowest, inside, cheapest cabin, adds th 50% surchrage and the upgrades me to an outside, sometimes a balcony if ones still available. It's fun, sometimes, to sail alone. You get to talk to people at mealtimes; and at various bars around the ship. But, you get 'alone-time' where you can do whatever you want, or not....[/size]

I've travelled with friends several times. The "rule" we set, before we even booked the cruise, was that the only time we would definately spend together would be breakfast and dinner. Everything else was open to discussion. it was understood that we would talk about what we wanted to do, at the other times, and would do things together only if we wanted to. It wound up that we did spend a considerable amount of time together, but never felt as if we had to.

Sorry, Joey, you won't get to meet Steve. He was supposed to come down in January, but because of the impending grandchild changed it to February. I'll be coming alone.....

Wouldn't miss it for the world!!! I'll be there!!! Even put off seeing my new granddaughter until Saturday...

I would have to go along with the majority....Disembarkation. OK, now the cruise is over; there's nothing more to do! Everything's closed but the Photo Shop (cash sales only..); Sitting around just waiting..... Then the lines to get off the ship! You can change tables, if you don't like your tablemates. Noisy, rude teenagers are a temporary annoyance. But, when the cruise ends, it's over....

WELCOME HOME ! She's one of my favorite ships....[/size]

Great shots! You'll have that balcony cabin in no time!!!

HAVE A GREAT CRUISE, MARIA & KEN. [/size]
