sayaguru Posted August 20, 2013 #153 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Hi Debbie! Oh it would be lovely to meet you - but as I'm travelling from Australia I'm hoping to see a few more places - I'm thinking of Western Caribbean area. Of course I will let you know if I change my mind! Heather:) Hi Heather, where in Australia are you from? I normally travel in April but want to do a cruise that only goes in June,July and August so taking LSL then instead. Hi Kiwichick I'm from Sydney also. It is difficult to get good deals but they are out there. Lynne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serenevasister Posted August 20, 2013 #154 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Hi Heather, where in Australia are you from? I normally travel in April but want to do a cruise that only goes in June,July and August so taking LSL then instead. Hi Kiwichick I'm from Sydney also. It is difficult to get good deals but they are out there. Lynne Hi Lynne, I live in Coffs Harbour - originally a Sydney girl! I am a cruise virgin - but funnily enough this year I am going with my daughter on the melbourne Cup cruise. Then I was only cruising next year as the animal training seminar will be held on board Celebrity Reflection on April 19. As I'm also going to the Clicker Expo in Norfolk, VA at the very end of March I have a couple of weeks early April. Now I have been looking at everything I've become fascinated with cruising - I see it as a great way to travel if you are solo (not that I really know yet - but I'm guess ing it is). And it seems there are plenty of us out there. Hubby and I only occasionally do trips together - his idea of a holiday is going to remote areas of Sth America and wandering in the forests for several weeks! (he's a botanist!) In fact, he's on his way home from Brazil now! I have in the past done some horse riding holidays with friends (I have 4 horses!!) - but I also like attending courses and have been clicker training with my horses - so one thing led to another! And if I like these cruises I will be up for more solo cruises - so maybe in future us Aussie gals can work out a trip we can all be on!

I don't know if the ship will be decorated for Christmas, as that's not a priority for me. I do hope that there will be a sailaway party so we can meet other cruisers from Cruise Critic. Have you checked out the roll call for this cruise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scubagirl43 Posted August 27, 2013 #167 Share Posted August 27, 2013 Honestly, for me, now that I've done solo cruises I don't think I'm interested in sharing with anyone who isn't a significant other or a close family member--I like the freedom too much. :) I certainly get that. Thanks so much for replying... and I know you'll enjoy yourself. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
