RuthlessBoss Posted July 11, 2012 #301 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Glad they were able to reinstate the review. It really was a favorite for all, and seems to have a rebirth:D I don't know, is Glory ready for round 2? ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngelKappie Posted July 11, 2012 #303 Share Posted July 11, 2012 GREAT review, we are taking our son on the Ecstasy for his high school graduation celebration, he opted to go on a cruise instead of a big grad party! Can't wait! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dawn1004 Posted July 12, 2012 #305 Share Posted July 12, 2012 I've enjoyed your review also. pretty sure I wouldn't be able to travel by myself, way too nervous, but you did really well, very adventurous indeed. Love the photos, the dolphins were amazing. Are they wild dolphins then or are they dolphins that were once kept in captivity and are now released in that lagoon/ocean area? Sorry I'm not very clued up on the areas you visited. Happy future cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TriciaEMTB Posted July 12, 2012 Author #306 Share Posted July 12, 2012 They're captive dolphins that are allowed out into the ocean. I don't know if it's just for the swim or if they're allowed out at other times, but they must be happy. They had plenty of chance to escape. They swam ahead of us out to ocean and were back to the bay area before us too. There is nothing keeping them from swimming off.

OhioDogLover Posted July 12, 2012 #307 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Tricia, I loved your review. I know you will enjoy the next two cruises. DH and I want to do a B2B, but we don't have enough time. I will look forward to your reviews! Thank you for writing. Ohiodoglover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TriciaEMTB Posted July 12, 2012 Author #308 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Unfortunately I decided to scrap the second cruise. I'm trying to go back to school after this cruise and get into nursing school. Thank you everyone for such lovely comments.

MrFunInTheSun Posted August 11, 2012 #314 Share Posted August 11, 2012 Solos can't stand being called brave! Several threads about it on the solo board. Take the jump, it's fun doing what you want when you want. Know this is an older review thread, but amen to this! Take the plunge, take a solo cruise. Don't know what you're missing until you try it. Being able to do what you want when you want s the best, especially on a cruise. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenrod Posted August 11, 2012 #316 Share Posted August 11, 2012 TriciaEMTB Thank you for your review. I thoroughly enjoyed it! Loved your attempts at making the towel animals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TriciaEMTB Posted August 11, 2012 Author #317 Share Posted August 11, 2012 I ran into a towel elephant at work I think mine was better. I am YouTubeing towel animal makings, i want to leave one for my room steward the first night before he leaves one in November I'm trying to make the monkey. I might just have to settle for something not as complicated. Maybe a sea vagina... Errr walrus :) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYGirl1002 Posted August 11, 2012 #318 Share Posted August 11, 2012 Tricia..I loved your review. Cruising is so addictive. I'm never truly happy unless I've got a cruise booked! Great pictures too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momma1980 Posted August 12, 2012 #319 Share Posted August 12, 2012 GREAT review, we are taking our son on the Ecstasy for his high school graduation celebration, he opted to go on a cruise instead of a big grad party! Can't wait! :) Have to tell you that your post made me smile. My oldest daughter graduates from college next year and I am REALLY hoping that she will choose a cruise as a graduation celebration! Chances are pretty good because we have already had three very happy mother/daughter cruises together! I don't think I will have to twist her arm to cruise again. Happy cruising and congratulations to your son on his graduation:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are sailing her in January and I hope that we can experience a great time ourselves. Thank you for taking the time to post such a readable, honest, enjoyable recap of your vacation. I really appreciate the perspective you offered. I have to say that my heart warmed when you told about your room steward re-doing the elephant towel animal you left him. I just love the quiet, perfect service I get from the stewards. It seems as though they anticipate my needs and meet them before I have to ask! Even though they have to perform the same tasks day after day after day.... They can still manage to inject a personal touch. Love it! Congratulations on going back to school. You will not regret it. I am a nurse myself and find it to be a rewarding, although difficult job. Best of Luck! Thanks again for the review:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FIDDLE2FADDLE Posted August 12, 2012 #322 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Trish, I'm so glad that your thread was reinstated. Earlier in the year I came across your cruise review and was glued to your every post! Was blue when it faded away - now that it's back, I read it all over again. I sure hope you enjoy all your future cruises (and write about them - so we can all enjoy it with you - all over again! Please ---- keep writing fiddle2faddle, another cruise lover ps - i think your version of the walrus is the most antonomicly (sp) correct!!! i ran into a towel elephant at work i think mine was better. I am youtubeing towel animal makings, i want to leave one for my room steward the first night before he leaves one in november i'm trying to make the monkey.

sharkaymon Posted August 13, 2012 #324 Share Posted August 13, 2012 OK, Tricia! 1. Some of your pix just showed on my 'puter as a little box with a red X. I clicked on them but no luck. One of them was you in your elegant black dress! I would love to see it, I've tried scrolling back but have no idea where it is. Do you know what page it's on. 2. Your writing is very good. You could do a whole series of stories. A Shy Girl Goes To . . . (you fill in the blank!) You really could do this and I for one would BUY your stories.! Don't change one thing about your writing. It's so descriptive and just GREAT!!!!!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
