I'm glad I didn't let fear keep me from doing this solo cruise.[/quote'] Did you find it hard to blend with existing groups or did you hang by yourself?

Leo's Rule Posted August 15, 2013 Author #58 Share Posted August 15, 2013 (edited) Where in Texas u from ? Sent from my SGH-T999L using Forums mobile app Rob, did you miss part of the review? :rolleyes: :D :p I'm in Houston. Born and raised. Did you find it hard to blend with existing groups or did you hang by yourself? I didn't find it too hard. Meeting people from the M&G helped. There were times I ate by myself on the Lido, but if I couldn't find anywhere to sit, I'd ask could I join whomever was already there. We'd chat and that would be it. In the club I'd be dancing by myself and sometimes I'd end up in a group dancing. I stayed to myself the majority of the time, but I did mix and mingle. I marched to my own beat.

Leo's Rule Posted August 15, 2013 Author #60 Share Posted August 15, 2013 So far, so good! I love long reviews! Sailing on the Valor this coming Sunday! Looking forward to more of your review!:D I know you're sailing soon. Too bad I won't be finished with all of my ports before you leave. But you will enjoy every single one of them. I'm even a convert for Barbados. Great start to your review! Looking forward to reading more:) Thanks, lady! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leo's Rule Posted August 15, 2013 Author #61 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Wow. Really enjoying your review and this is just the pre-cruise part. I look forward to each step of you trip. You write with a lot of description and the photos are great. Awesome job! Thanks for posting. :cool: Thank you. As you can see, I ramble. :D I guess that's the only child syndrome coming out in me. :rolleyes: :p I was born in Puerto Rico and have not been there since 1998. Now i want to take a cruise there. I grew up in NYC but now live in houston. You should definitely cruise from there. There's other parts of Puerto Rico I want to see. I'm just going to have to stay out of the touristy areas so my bank account can breathe. LOL If you don't mind me asking, why such the long wait in returning? Welcome to my hometown! How do you like it here? BTW, I hope you know I was only messing with you in my other response to you. I know text is cold and you don't know me from Adam, but I was just being silly.

We live by hobby. Sent from my SGH-T999L using Forums mobile app It's no problem. I'm on the SW side. I'm in Alief trying to get out. Alief isn't what it used to be. Wife's eyes lit up whrn u mentioned coach outlet in PR. How much off were the prices vs malls in houston? Sent from my SGH-T999L using Forums mobile app I'm a shopaholic and try to avoid the stores. The outlets have the purses that are out of season or not the current line. Prices range from $60 - $300. The one I bought cost $77 or $79 with tax. They had some sale going on where purses in the bottom level of the store were 50% off. I when I say bottom, it wasn't a basement. Basically you're in the store in the first section and the purses are marked down to some price. I don't know if those were newer styles or not, but they didn't qualify for the extra 50% off. Then you walk down 4 steps (almost like a sunken living room) and there's purses, wallets, and backpacks, then you enter the area where the cashiers are and there's a plethora of purses. I wanted some of those as well, but I had to think about my luggage...and I wasn't putting that in my checked bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, as a dog lover...i'd want to bring back all those homeless dogs in PR.:D:D Yes, I was warned. And I can't remember the name of the area I was warned not to venture to and as I was walking around there was an area that looked shady, but I was like, how bad can it be, Customs is right here...there should be officers all around. I did wonder if I was in that area, but I wasn't...or I hope I wasn't. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SGH-T999L using Forums mobile app I didn't mention it. They are on FB; however, I am not searchable there. And currently I've been uploading select photos for the review so the photos are locked; I don't want others on my page looking at them just yet. I'm really anal and like grouping them. Past cruise photos are posted and grouped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gapearl Posted August 15, 2013 #74 Share Posted August 15, 2013 I originally took this picture because the guy driving it was an elderly gentleman and the car has hydraulics; I would have had him in the picture' date=' but my camera decided to act stupid. I had to zoom in before he was out of my sight. It wasn't until I pulled the picture up on my computer that I noticed the hand and purse hanging out of the trunk and his sign that says Back from the dead! :eek: [img']https://fbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-frc3/1186978_4753708935189_500742070_n.jpg[/img] I've seen this car on two separate trips to San Juan this year! Did you see all the Chucky dolls in the window? I've never been able to snap a picture. He's too quick but obviously searching for attention.
