    I kid you not... New Wine for Seniors California vintners in the Napa Valley area, which primarily produce Pinot Blanc, Pinot Noir and Pinot Grigio wines, have developed a new hybrid grape that acts as an anti-diuretic. It is expected to reduce the number of trips older people have to make to the bathroom during the night. The new wine will be marketed as PINO MORE I HEARD IT THROUGH THE GRAPEVINE I just could not help myself! Enjoy!! Joe

    MSC is different. I enjoyed it very much Very very very clean. Shows were great and not so great. Food was good except one nite. The last nite we had lobster and baked alaska plus a bottle of sparckling wine (on the house for everyone)they dimmed the lights and carried the dessert out on fire really nice. Would I go again in a minute. Is it a princess cruise no.Our int. was great the price was great. I took my kids and grand kids so 7 of us went for under 3500 which I still can't believe since it was Easter and spring break. Prices on board were reasonable. I got a bottle of wine everynite for dinner for $8. Never heard of that brand but it was from Italy and was quite good. This site here has a great review http://www.cruisereport.com/Default.aspx click on new kid on the block. I hope this helps.

    On the Carnival Victory Our toilet didn't flush. It took four days to get it working. Yuk. The lights on the mirror didn't work. Just bad service in the cabin. Still had a good time. On one of the RCCL ships can't remember which one the mattress was so bad the joke was I looked like a hot dog in a bun. Only put up with that one night got a new bed the next nite.

    I like to read the bad reviews. Not sure why but it tells me alot about the people writing the review if they know what they are talking about. Alot of thier gripes are really petty.

    nah I don't think we do anything. Except always getting something to eat and a drink. I guess a drink starts us off.

    it has been awhile since I took a seven day cruise I guess I just didn't remember having two. We usually do 9 or 14 days. Thanks for the reply

    When did seven day cruises start having two formal nites. I usually take longer cruises but my last two were 7 days. I just don't remember two formal nites on seven day cruises.

    Gosh of course stuff for my Granddaughters. I always bring them something nice. I did buy two end tables and coffee table in Hong kong made of teak wood. Cost more to ship home than the tables. they were worth it deep carvings on the top.
