Other then packing I think we're ready to go. But I don't do any of the packing, I think she only lets me come along to carry the bags.

We leave for FL in 38 days, cruise in 43. The list of people is starting to grow. People from Alaska to Maine to Florida and some in between, Indiana, New Hampshire, New Jersey and West Virginia.

Add Illinois on that list Max...Luckily we have an extra bedroom because our vacation clothes are already stacked on the bed and ready to pack. I think I will follow some good advice I read on one of these sites...Pack what you think you will need and then remove half. Candy my countdown clock is 8 hours ahead of yours...I must have entered the time wrong or maybe I am really anxious to sail.  

Hi everyone,

My girlfriend and I are going. We will be celebrating her birthday on elegant night. This is her first cruise and my 11th. Hope to meet up.

Darryl 

 Tell your girlfriend Happy Birthday , and I will have a DOD  for her. It is my husbands B-day in the first night . Hope to see you there.

Myself, my wife, and are 3 year old son will be aboard.  (Should be interesting, with the little one)

I get to practice relaxing this week, the wife has gone to Ohio. Daughter in law is due today, our first grand child and she isn't about to miss that.

WOW Max...You guys sure have allot going on...A new Grandchild and a Cruise...Congradulations Grandpa...You and Grandma are going to be ready for a little R&R in Nov.     One more reason to celebrate   WOO HOO             My husband and I are Grandparents times 9......it is great!!!

Ok guys I'm really in need of this vacation...Kitchen update isn't going well..New stove has problem with oven...stove needs to be here for island countertop to be installed..countertops won't be in for a week and a half..who does a kitchen update days before your first cruise?   Barry and I will be easy to spot on the cruise..I'll be the drunk lady with my hands around my husbands throat..lol....just kidding about the...throat thing...We are both in need of this vacation!!!!!   Can't wait!!!!

 You will be easy to spot. I will hold your DOD for you, it is important not to spill that.

There will be nine of us, so someone will help. LOL If anyone needs a break you two

do. Enjoy, see you there.

Reminds me of the Dan Worley song, "Sounds like life to me"

I get it...*** it up it could be worse...Sorry about the venting here...it was a stressful day.

We'll be there.  We're going on our 2nd honeymoon...just go married in July!

Go ahead and vent,  let it all out. Don't need to bring any stress with us, there'll be enough once we get there. Decisions like what Foo Foo drink I want, hot tub or pool, steak or lobster... There are so many decisions to be made that now I'm getting stressed just thinking about them. Time to go find my happy place.

Welcome Don & Carrie. Sounds like there will be a lot of celebrating on this cruise, honeymoons, birthdays, anniversaries and new kitchens.

Tampa weather for today is mid to upper 80's. In just two long weeks we'll be there and two days later we'll be leaving on the cruise..yea!!...I can hardly contain my excitement. Have a safe and Happy Halloween everyone!!!
