Lv2Camp&Cruise Posted October 30, 2006 #1 Share Posted October 30, 2006 I mentioned on another thread that our upcoming cruise on the Liberty would give us a few "firsts". Here are a few of ours: First time with a balcony Determined to be awarded our first "24 karat gold plastic ship on a stick" First time using spa services on board First time sneaking through a hole in the fence to lay on a beach (Costa Maya) :D Anyone else????

clgcrusier Posted October 30, 2006 #2 Share Posted October 30, 2006 We also are having our first balcony, and hoping to do the "hole-in-th-fence" excursion! Perhaps also try the reservation-only supper club! The first I would truly love to experience is winning in the casino! The ones on the ships haven't been too kind to me!:p Oh, and will be trying room service for the first time, to have that long awaited cup of coffee on the balcony watching the sunrise!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lv2Camp&Cruise Posted October 30, 2006 Author #4 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Oh! I forgot about the supper club. We hope to get reservations for Tuesday night for Harry's. That is my 40th birthday! I am sure that there will be many drinks involved that night! :rolleyes: Someone mentioned room service. We love to get late night PB&J sandwiches with chips and brownies. Definitely a vacation only treat at midnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Margienj Posted October 30, 2006 #5 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Our upcoming cruise on the Liberty in March will have a few firsts for us as well. Our first cabin on the Lido Deck. Our first time in Panama, Costa Maya & Costa Rica making this our first cruise with no "repeat" ports. Our first cruise with both daughters' boyfriends. My 85 year old aunt's "FIRST" cruise.

happy cruzin Posted October 30, 2006 #10 Share Posted October 30, 2006 Even with this being the 5th cruise there are still plenty of "firsts" for us: ** first cruise alone - just DH and me ;) ** it will be the first time that we have lunch in the dining room - we have done breakfast in the dining room on each of our previous cruises - but never tried a lunch. ** first time for room service - ever! Not sure why we have never gotten around to trying room service. Probably becuase we always were meeting those that we were travelling with, but this time I am determined to give it a try. ** first time that we will be hanging out at the martini bar. :D On the very last night of our Triumph cruise we got hooked on the appletinis. So - that is where I know we will be this time! Fun thread - thanks for getting it started :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jw4jg1mg2eg1 Posted October 30, 2006 #11 Share Posted October 30, 2006 On this next Conquest cruise I would really like to go to The Point to eat for the first time. Also, since this is a repeat cruise I would like to go to Ocho Rios in Jamaica rather than Montego Bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWolver672 Posted October 30, 2006 #12 Share Posted October 30, 2006 No firsts for us but our son's twenty-three year old friend is coming with us and he has quite a few first. Never flown before Never seen a cruise ship before Never been on a cruise ship before Never left Michigan before Never been in a foreign country before Never seen an ocean When we returned from our last cruise, he said he was going on the next one no matter what happened. When we ask him to join us, he didn't hesitate one minute. We ask if he would rather have a cheaper cabin, he said no, he wanted to experience the best all at once (Balcony cabins on the Lido Deck). This should be quite the experience for him. He's even going out and buying a suit that he's never had a need for before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
