we too are going nov. 30th (last day of hurricane season). i booked it when we got back from our march 2008 cruise. this will be #8 for us (7 with carnival) first time on such a big ship. we did the little celebration twice, inspiration, sensation, ecstasy twice. also rhapsoody of sea which is RC. i think it is just smaller than conquest.
we are next door neighbors to new orleans but i really like the galveston port better. now it will be a new experience either going to bayport terminal or the new route to galveston other than the beach road/ferry.
november is a nice time to go. in the past the ship was decorated for christmas. our only other november cruise had alot of seniors and a convention of transvestites that kept things lively.
adding to the excitement is wondering where we will sail from
