Snooksi Posted February 2, 2017 #4 Share Posted February 2, 2017 I'm a planner too and love everything that goes along with that. I also get bummed out once everything is planned and finished and all I have left to do is stare at my vacation folder and WAIT for the incredible cruise vacation!!! While I wait, I enjoy watching the sailaways on Sat/Sun afternoons on the FLL webcam. Always fun to watch the ship you are going to be on sail on their latest journey knowing that soon it will be our turn!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare grouchomarx Posted February 2, 2017 #5 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Plan all your outfits? And accessories and shoes? That works for me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
son3cruisers Posted February 2, 2017 #6 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Well, I'm going to be having the planning blues in a month or so. But mine will be because I don't have a cruise to plan! We have decided to take a bit of a break from cruising for now and look at something new. I can already feel the withdrawal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dorts Posted February 2, 2017 #8 Share Posted February 2, 2017 I'm the same...My partner has no clue about the ship or anything else to be honest...They haven't even logged onto the planner once. However...This has let me plan everything and book excursions and specialty dining without them interfering...I can't be so relaxed about things...They have no clue as to how much better a cruise can be with a bit of planning!!

Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Forums mobile app I am the one between my DH and I that does NONE of the planning. I know when we are going and what ship we agree to go on....for whatever length of time....and I am just fine. I leave the rest to him. I will be ready to leave for the port that morning....then the fun starts. So don't pick on those of us, that leave the planning of the details to OTHERS.

famof4togo Posted February 2, 2017 #10 Share Posted February 2, 2017 My hubby is the same, all he wants to know is what date we leave...he leaves the rest up to me...I even pack his clothes lol....but you can't have "two cooks in the Kitchen" so it works out well....no conflict no disagreement etc...everyone is happy....

jpolm Posted February 2, 2017 #11 Share Posted February 2, 2017 I'm the same way. Planner type -a and love it! I plan all of our vacations. Hubby trusts me now. Research prices, where, when ,what etc I do not only plan our larger 1-2 family trips a year but also our smaller weekend trips like Vegas etc. that helps. My downtime from planning is usually oct-January as holiday time has me preoccupied. But once January hits I have vacation blues and get going. After vacation hits I have post vacation blues so I just look forward to the next. Time to plan something else!

Robo1098 Posted February 2, 2017 #12 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Funny. I couldn't put my finger on it but I have the blues also. Everything is planned, booked and paid for. Now the wait... Guess I'll watch YouTube videos till its time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tserface Posted February 2, 2017 #14 Share Posted February 2, 2017 You could start planning a cruise for the time after the two you have planned and think about booking it while on the ship. We've always found that the deals are good and the deposits are lower. You can always change your mind and change or cancel the booking and you'll get your deposit refunded. So, a lot of the times, we plan a cruise, then while waiting for it, we think about what we want to book on the ship. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sockmonkeygirl Posted February 3, 2017 #17 Share Posted February 3, 2017 Also a planner! I'm already planning for the let-down after the cruise. :( I know, weird. My head is a giant balloon filled with noxious gasses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ladysummermoon Posted February 3, 2017 #20 Share Posted February 3, 2017 I've started ogling the ports on Google maps lol where the ship "parks", how far from the ship to places that i might want to see and do around the port....it does pass the time for a little while.

Start exploring the options and looking for good deals, that is how I got my '17 and '18 cruises. that's because we are already planning to do Disney World sometime in the spring of 2018, but for various reasons we cannot nail this down yet.
