simmingdenise Posted August 9, 2017 #26 Share Posted August 9, 2017 On my second cruise I found out that some cruise employees can still remember your name after a year! This was pre-social media! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amydresh Posted August 10, 2017 #27 Share Posted August 10, 2017 This was fun to read, we are taking our second cruise in Feb for our 20 year anniversary. We took the kids the first time and will be going alone this time. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jakesnana Posted August 10, 2017 #29 Share Posted August 10, 2017 A couple of bucks was a very good tip back then, I'd guess. Exactly !! I remember on my first cruise that a drink at the bar was $1.95 plus a 15% tip for a total of just under $2.25, of course that was back in 1988 :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MNKEITH Posted August 10, 2017 #30 Share Posted August 10, 2017 On my second cruise I learned that a lot of the petty annoyances I had the first time could be avoided with a little pre planning. I also learned cruising was my vacation of choice and that I cannot live without at least one per year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AZ Ocean Lover Posted August 10, 2017 #32 Share Posted August 10, 2017 I learned that I don't have to do an excursion in each port and that I really, really like sea days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musicguy Posted August 10, 2017 #33 Share Posted August 10, 2017 On my second cruise, I learned just how much I had missed the warm chocolate melting cake and there was no shame in ordering it almost every night... And a seven day cruise is really much better than a four day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
