TorontoTL Posted August 7, 2013 #95 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Had to be the Crown in '06.....We had a great cc group and loved hangin' with you two! Ah that was the NYC to Eastern Caribbean cruise on the Crown's first year! Lovely cruise, we missed Bermuda on that cruise though which was a pity. I recall that there were many angry passengers complaining that the only reason they chose that cruise was to go to Bermuda. However, there isn't much that can be done if the winds are too high as they were that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
