And this thread has really gone off topic, why don't we get back to the original question. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ontheweb Posted November 27, 2021 #60 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Getting back to the original topic. We have one of those anniversaries coming up in 2022, #45. We were sent an ad from NCL, not our favorite cruise line, but there was an incredible itinerary. (DW actually found it first.) It started in London (Southampton) and went to Amsterdam, Brugges (for Brussells), 3 stops in Norway for fjords, and finally 3 stops in Iceland ending in an overnight in Reykjavik. I saw it went in August, and went "Aha, this could be our annivesary cruise". And then I saw the ship had not been built yet (first cruise is actually scheduled for August 2022, though later in the month than our anniversary). We have booked it (with a totally refundable deposit), and if we find nothing for next August or things are still messed up from Covid, we just might consider this our special anniversary cruise, just a year later. And it would be nice if Covid is finally totally in our past by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

August 2023, note that is 2023, is well past 9m months from now. I agree about the 9 month part which is why we may very well not have anything real special planned for anniversary #45 in August 2022. We can hope for 2023.🤞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
