We had to carry on the case of vitamin water. In NOLA the porters wouldn't take the drinks for us. We put a luggage tag on them, but they still wouldn't take them. I have heard that in other ports the porters will take the drinks with your checked bags, but not in NOLA.

 

As far as counting as our 2 pieces of luggage, they didn't count how many bags we had. There were 7 of us and we checked 16 pieces of luggage. In our defense 3 of those were supposed to be carry-ons that somehow managed to get a luggage tag and loaded on the dolly in our haste. I don't believe it is as strict as the airlines. So if you need to pack 3 or 4 bags for yourself don't worry about it. Now, if you are flying, that is a completely different story. We drove to New Orleans, so we didn't have any restrictions on luggage, just what could fit in the Suburban.

Hi, thank you so much for all your review info! Good stuff! Can you tell me where you bought the Vitamin Water? I like that and those FUSE drinks and would like to stop somewhere from the airport to the hotel to get them. Any input is greatly appreciated.

It was. The wives didn't seem to mind. Lol.

Craziest thing? My first cruise with my mom. ..about 3 dozen ladies with their cross-dressing husband s. And yes, the men dressed as women the whole week. If only the men had dressed as well as their wives. ...

Hi Sherri,

Loved your lists! :-) Would you be so kind as to email them to me? At dianeyazzie@hotmail.com. Would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you so very much.

On my first cruise on RC's Sovereign of the Seas, my mom and I had no sooner gotten on board and went up to the Lido deck to have a drink when we saw a whole bunch of men dressed as women....and they were with their wives!!!! Not just that, but most of them were BADLY dressed as women - this was the whole five days.

I'm all about "live and let live" philosophy -- but it was just hilarious. Their wives seemed nonplussed about it and we enjoyed watching them dance with their wives as the 50's sock hop still dressed as women - hey, they were having a blast!!!! Nothing wrong with that!:o
