I just got a really good deal on a balcony cabin for the week of Dec 7; the company TA that I spoke to said that many people don't want to travel between Thanksgiving and Christmas. I would just look at cruises you are interested in and see what the offers are.

I'm planning to take some ziploc type bags in different sizes - I always find a use for them on other vacations and I guess cruises won't be different. Also, if you have a Kindle, I've read that putting it in a ziploc will keep it dry on the beach, by the pool, etc. I love that hint!

Due to some physical problems, I had to stop zumba (I had been going to 2 -4 classes/week for a year) around Thanksgiving. I love zumba, but never seemed to lose weight. In the last couple of months without it, though, I have GAINED about 6 pounds. :( I am waiting for my physical therapist to ok it, but I dk how long that will take.

It's so nice to hear the "end" of a story! Congrats on your engagement! I look forward to the pics.:)
