Looking for 2nd cruise experience

[1stTimeCroozer]

Hubbie and I are looking for a 3-4 night cruise out of Baltimore, MD or somewhere close by. We recently experienced a loss (miscarriage at 9 weeks) and really want to de-stress, be with each other, and not think about a whole lot for a few days.

 

We cruised for the 1st time in December 2003 on Royal Caribbean's Voyager for 7 nights to the Western Caribbean. At that time, we needed to spend some time alone as we had a 6 month old daughter who was demanding a lot of our time and attention. Now she's 3 and demands even more from us! We had a blast on a that cruise and would love to have that on a second cruise as well.

 

We don't mind a cheap cabin...interior state room is fine. Again, just 3-4 nights, leaving from Baltimore to....wherever....sometime in Sept/Oct/Nov. Any thoughts? Any recommendations?

 

Thanks,

Angela

Sorry about your loss. I had three miscarriage. I really can relate. I hope you can find a cruise nearby and be relaxing to you.
