Ditto. Crown sailing January 12th and as I am in deep-freeze Chicago it can't come soon enough!

Raising my glass to the possibility of a warmer climate...

Are you going to meet and greet? Crazy here in a SW Colorado really warm

11 days and counting and we will be sailing on the Crown!m

We've cruised a few times in the Caribbean and Bahamas, but would like to plan a European cruise. I feel so overwhelmed and have no idea where to even start. Any pointers to lead me in the right direction? Thank you!

I am going to give you a little something different and I would suggest depending on where you want to go and what you want to see a river cruise may be a better option. My husband and I love it. It can't be beat. For pricing it includes everything like tours and even wine and beer with dinner and an evening cocktail hour. When you cruise on a regular ocean liner everything else is a fee but for river cruising it is included. Sometimes you can even get airfare for as low as 395.00 per person.

Always carried my coat with me. I am from Colorado so it's a little different but the sweater style with layers tends to work well.

My favorite time of year to visit really. This is what I wore most of the time during the first part of December. Alw

Let me know if you get though Lloyd and for how many because I may be able to set up with my Bus development manager also if your TA has one I am thinking she can do it too.

Happy Birthday Marines!!

Terri and Gunny Do you have any guess when Old San Juan will have electricity, so all hotels and forts will be open?

It will be an ongoing event of significant duration. They are doing pretty good in the port areas and such and as the trucks roll in they will send them out as well as all the equipment pouring in. Tough go for everything but they have massive amounts of help constantly going back and forth. The Gunny is getting ready to rotate out he has been on 12 hour days 7 days a week now.

Just like someone else stated the grid is pretty unstable but teams of linemen and equipment have been in route and on ground to get everything up and going.

Hope this helps, my husband is on a team helping with Puerto Rico. Most of the power in and around the island is not on. They have thousands of dollars in equipment constantly being transported to help get the situation under control but it is still not on throughout the Island. They did open the cruise port and it has had ships in and out but the situation is far from ideal. Lots of man power is working daily but Pole Trucks, Poles, and electric infrastructure is right now getting ready to be transported. I don't think it will be really up and running for quite some time.

I love Fall over spring myself. It's not really too cold and the season is very nice. Light layers if you are worried. The crowds in the areas are always less too which I love.

We are going to be on the Crown Princess in May any devil dogs out there cruising?

Thanks!

If you do try slim in 6 please let us know how you like it!

 

My friend got amazing results with T25 and she didn't follow the meal plan. I'm looking forward to trying it.

I will let you know.

I also will look at the T25. I am enjoying BBL but getting a little board with the cardio part.

This thread is so exciting/inspiring!

I have insanity, I did it in 2012 after my first child. I almost finished it. It just was too long and repetitive, but the workout was intense and effective.

 

I'm pregnant again, due at the end of March and I think I'm going to get T25 and do that to help w/ losing the baby weight, then I think I'm going to either try doing Insanity again or P90X3 (Aparrently they made a 30 minute workout series in P90X3!)

Congrats! I have not done any of the T25 series I here it's pretty good. I think I am going to try either slim 6 or do my p90x and finish it this time. :)

I am so looking forward to our January trip

have you done any of the other workouts?

I just started week 5 of the T25 (last week of alpha) and have lost 11 pounds. I have been trying to get in at least 1 hour of cardio at least 5 days a week in addition to the T25. So far, so good.

That is great! I have been plugging away as I want to be down a little more when we cruise in January. I usually do pretty good on the cruise but this time we are doing a back to back. So I want to be right on track

Just ordered the t25 challenge pack and will be starting a 10 week challenge beginning on 11/3 although I may start as soon as they come. Doing that along with Zumba 3 times a week should help me lose another 30-40 pounds by my next cruise. Doing this through the holiday period should help keep me on track with my goals.

 

Kathy

I just started BBL and I am hoping to do two 30 day cycles by cruise time. I also do about 30-45 minutes of cardio 4-5 times per week.

I agree Kathy I think doing it during holiday's keeps you accountable.

My DH and I are doing a back to back on Princess in January. Looking to be in better shape for it.
