BugsyCruiser Posted November 14, 2013 #1 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Hello friends! Once again it's time for a vacation and I will be reporting live from the incredible Allure of the Seas sailing this Sunday! This will include two days pre cruise in Fort Lauderdale as a "warm up" to the adventure! I am excited once again to be giving you all hopefully some excellent pictures and a chance to follow along as I spend a week sailing the western Caribbean aboard the world's largest cruise ship! For those of you not familiar with me, my friend and fellow CC member Radio inspired me to do my first ever LIVE last October from Oasis and since then I also shared my travels aboard Celebrity Silhouette back in April. I hope to improve on each review and make them better than the ones before and this one will be no exception. As many of you know I love to take photos and while a lot of time and effort is spent doing these kind of reviews, I feel the end result is well worth it. You will also have the extra added treat of TWO live reviews on the same sailing as my friend MrFunInTheSun will also be reporting from the same cruise! So join me on what will hopefully be another fantastic cruise to the Caribbean. As Radio would say, "thanks for tuning in everyone!" :) Allure of the Seas(photos I took of her this past April): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BugsyCruiser Posted November 14, 2013 Author #5 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Sadly, my beloved Sony camera went kaput on me. For now I will be using this camera and so far I am impressed with the photos it has turned out: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/1-j3-compact-system-camera-with-10-100mm-vr-lens/7808041.p?id=1218860883102&skuId=7808041&st=categoryid$pcmcat214000050005&cp=2&lp=5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
