Also one night on a VIP Beyond sailing. Not to get personal but inquiring minds what to know: How old is she? Does she work? Does she have a "shoreside" life? Obviously, you don't have to answer any of these questions but as much as I enjoy cruising (and I'm retired) I would never want to spend approximately 7 months per year cruising. I would miss my friends, my family, my pets, my activities, and the simpler pleasures of life, etc. etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix_dream Posted June 12, 2023 #28 Share Posted June 12, 2023 Only 78, and it was last year. Seems a little small compared to some I am seeing! Sadly next year it will be less - just can't afford to cruise as often with the current prices. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She always cruises with her brother and/or parents. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lexmiller Posted June 13, 2023 #37 Share Posted June 13, 2023 In 2022, we spent 86 nights on board a whole lot of Celebrity ships. 2023, we will have a total of 87 nights on board Celebrity. But the best part of this post is your #8!! "No escalators for nights where you got laid" OMG, that's hysterical! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trust me - its a good way to piss off a lot of people 😂 You are talking to a former Golf Putting Champion from 2012 -- I forgot which ship or even who the Captain was, but the finals were " brutal " !! Talk about pressure--- There I was against a few other guys ( one had a cane, another a walker , and a guy " claiming " to be a 6 hcp ( so, I told him I was a 4 ). Lucky for me, my putt hit the wheel of another guy's walker and bounced into the hole. I had the choice of a Celebrity water bottle or a t shirt with a big X on the front. To this day, the t shirt soaked in hot water still takes the bugs off the windshield of my car. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I banked my shot off a wall. 😁 I however do NOT still have my major award - the Celebrity X medallion on a blue ribbon. One of the guys was really, really not happy and made a lot of comments about women golfers. I basically just said, "yeah - sorry you were beat by a girl" and gave him a little smile. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
