My First Cruise

[ladybeachlover]

We finally booked out first cruise today. We will be sailing on the Enchantment of the Seas on July 1st. I'm so excited I want to leave right now!

I thimk we got a great deal and have a nice ocean view on the 4th level. Can we leave today instead???

Sorry - overly enthused right now since I just confirmed.

You will be hooked on cruising as soon as you set sail. [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

Ah, to be planning on an Enchantment cruise again...oh man! I want to go WITH you. Sounds like a great cabin too! We did an inside statement on 7 this last time and it was pretty nice anyways. We had alot of fun. Let's see if I can think of any good recommendations....first one...eat everything in sight! Okay well that's what gave me the 7 lb weight gain this time around. Well worth it though.

We are going with another couple and they are so much fun! I know we'll ahve a great time. This was my Christmas present from my hubby - it just took us this long to pick a date. Now I can hardly wait!

I will check the destination boards for tips and tricks!

Thanks!

Until the Caribbean!!!

Just a note of warning

Cruising is addictive. Once you go on one you'll wonder why you waited so long. You'll be thinking about when to book another one. And you'll think your friends are nuts when they say they have no interest in cruising

These message boards are addicting. Seems like the closer your cruise gets, the more time you spend on the boards.

But you will have a great time, meet some new friends and enjoy being pampered.
