I am so excited.  I just have to share.  This is going to be our first cruise, and we are going with 3 other couples.  One of them being my parents, who have no idea I just booked them!  We are surprising my parents.  My husband and I are going for our 10 year anniversary, and we are being joined by some friends, and now my parents.  Anyone else joining us?  Anyone know what excursions you will be doing?  We haven't decided yet.

I've been looking for anyone else going on this cruise.  Usually I can find a group on cruisecritic.com but no such luck this time.  So, YES, my husband and I are going on this cruise!  I can't wait!  I would love to find some others to join us but I don't think that's going to happen.  Anything to get away from the Michigan snow for a week!

Yes, I agree anything to get out of Michigan!  Where in Michigan do you live?  We are in Allegan.

We are about 35 miles north of Detroit, Chesterfield, MI.  Allegan is near G.R. right?  We have a lake house in Newaygo and I was born and raised in Battle Creek.  My husband is from Puerto Rico so I love taking him to Spanish speaking places - he does all the talking. : )

 We were just over in Detroit 2 weeks ago looking at a boat.  Yes, Allegan is near G.R.  We are actually half way between GR and Kalamazoo.  What a bonus that he speaks spanish.  I wish I did, my 6 year old speaks more than me, thanks to Dora the Explorer!  We have never been out of the country so we are really looking forward to this!

We went on the Valor Feb 08 we snorkeled in Grand Cayman liked it, Roatan we did the Zip Line just loved everything about Roatan ,Belize we did cave tubing it was just ok, Cozumel we did the Mexican Cooking Class WE LOVED IT !!! If you drink you will love it to.Luis the chef will make sure you have a great time.

I want to zip line in Roatan.  Which company did you zip line with?  Carnival or someone else?  I thought I wanted to cave tube in Belize but the more I read about, the more I'm thinking about staying on the ship at that port.

My husband and I will be on this cruise... our first one!!!!!!!!!!!!! so excited. I can't believe that there are not more posts here only 149 days to go.... I have been checking out the roll call on cruise critic and not much going on there either. Where is everyone?

I'm excited for you!  I'm wondering where everyone is too.  Hopefully it will start picking up as we get closer and closer.  See you on Cruise Critic too!

We are about to book this cruise.  it will be the first time we cruise since 1987 (long story there).  I am very excited.

I will be on board for my first cruise.  Solo mission.  Can't wait.  Hope to have a great group on board.  Any advice or tips would be appreciated.  Thanks.

Hi! We are on this cruise. Just booked about a week ago. Myself, husband, son and daughter. It is my daughters graduation gift. Can't wait to go. It is our 2nd cruise and very excited.

 My huband and I will be taking our 2 girls (ages 12 and 14) on this cruise. We have not decided yet what excursions to do yet. They all sound like so much fun.!!! I'm hoping that there will be other kids the same age on this cruise. My kids have never cruised before and I want them to have the option of some new friends to make and do things with.
