GCBCKat57 Posted December 13, 2005 #2 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Hi and welcome...I agree that this site is invaluable. After 4 cruises, I continue to learn something new all the time. Enjoy your cruise anticipation :p Kathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark42 Posted December 13, 2005 #3 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Welcome to the BEST cruise info site on the internet. Our 1st cruise was also our honeymoon and it was awesome. I can't think of a better way to spend your honeymoon. You are going to love RCCL and also the Radiance of the Seas but be warned cruising is VERY addicting. These message boards are the best way to learn the do's and don'ts of cruising. You will enjoy reading all the informative posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarps14 Posted December 13, 2005 #5 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Welcome!! You will absolutely love the Radiance. We did the Alaska trip last year in June. Wow, what a cruise to start with! The scenery is incredible, we had fantastic weather, and it will be something you will never forget. Ask any questions you can think of and someone on here will know the answer, guaranteed!:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We booked our March 13 2006 cruise in June 2005, seemed so far away. Now it is only 3 months. :D So your August 12th cruise will be here before you know it and I say that with certainty because our son is getting married on August 12th and it will be here before I know it.:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beth4652 Posted December 13, 2005 #7 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Now you're one of the smart ones. Pity those who haven't found this site. Be sure to go to the Roll Call for your cruise. I'm having a wonderful time meeting lots of my fellow travelers before we board the ship. We now have more than enough for a Meet & Mingle. Tomorrow we'll be in the single digits.

stargate fan Posted December 13, 2005 #8 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Welcome! This really is a great - and addicting - site. One word of caution, though. Remember to take what you read with a grain of salt. There will always be complainers...the coffe was cold, the ship swayed, my steward only cleaned my room twice a day, the waitsatff didn't bow down to me, etc. I was reading about our last cruise and found someone crying that the door hinges were slightly rusty. Oh, puhleeeease! You will love cruising. Remember to sign up for Crown and Anchor as soon as you get home. And don't be afraid to try other cruise lines. :D I just found this site tonight and have already found tons of helpful information!! We (my fiace and I) just booked our first ever cruise.

kellygirl719 Posted December 13, 2005 #9 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Welcome!! Trust me, after your first cruise you are going to become very addicted... I wouldn't be suprised if you book your next one once you get back!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coast2coast Posted December 13, 2005 #10 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Congratulations on booking your first cruise! My DH and I went to Alaska for our 10th anniversary in Aug. of 2004 on Radiance's sister ship, Serenade- BEAUTIFUL!!! You will definitely want to also check out the Alaska Port of Call section as the information you'll find there will be invaluable. That was the first cruise I ever booked independent excursions for, and I owe our fantastic time to the wonderful members of Cruise Critic. Have a wonderful cruise, and don't be surprised if you come back with PCD (post-cruise depression). The only way to get over it is to book another one! :D I just got back from my 6th cruise on Saturday and am still suffering PCD because I haven't booked my next cruise yet! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
