I'm working like a madman to get ready for the cruise. I went through my clothes to decide what to take and start packing them. I'm also doing some cleaning and running errands that need to get done before I leave. There are around 20 from here that are going. I know half of them. Five of us (Tina, Linda, Janie, Richard, and me) are driving to Memphis to take Amtrak to New Orleans very early Saturday morning. We'll be in NOLA from Saturday afternoon until Monday morning when we board the ship. We have two stops - Progreso and Cozumel. This is my first cruise, and I'm looking forward to it. Hope I get everything done and still get some sleep!
You will not hear from me while we're on the ship. Will you miss me?
This is the exact ship, Carnival Fantasy, in the New Orleans port. Wish us luck! My daughter Kathy and her family are going the next week and leaving from Miami on a seven-day cruise. Ours is five days which is just right for the first one, I think. They've been on many cruises.
i will! i may not always comment but i love the trivia!

Same with your blogs. I read but don't always comment. :-)
ReplyDeleteHope you have a terrific time! Cozumel is supposed to be great. I spent a week at a resort on the mainland just across from the island. Enjoy! :)
ReplyDeleteHave a great time. We did our first cruise two years ago and loved it, we are saving for another.
ReplyDeleteI love it! Preparation C, does that mean preparation as to a, b, c or that is preparation cruise. Have a great time, enjoy your self.
ReplyDeleteBon Voyage, Auntie Flame! Take lots of pictures for us!
ReplyDeleteThe only 'cruises' I have been on are freighters! This sounds much more fun. Looking forward to the report!
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous time and don't even think about blogging. Just enJoy. I look forward to all the stories when you get back!
ReplyDeleteOh Auntie Flame you are going to have the time of your life! Of course I will mis you!
ReplyDeleteYou bet we'll miss you--but I know you'll have a wonderful time. If you're in Cozumel, I recommend scheduling a trip to the mainland for a Mayan ruins tour. It was probably my favorite excursion on our trip.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to it. I'm not taking my laptop or planning to go to the internet cafe on the ship. We're all just going to have fun being together on vacation.
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful time. We will all definitely miss you!!!.
ReplyDeleteXOXOXOXOXOXOXO
Ah- you are going to my favorite place in the world- Cozumel. Just saying it makes me want to cry.
ReplyDeleteMy advice- get off the damn main street and cut yourself off from the herd. Cozumel is completely safe and there is nothing and no one to fear except for perhaps your fellow travelers. The food will not make you sick, nor will the ice. Don't even bother to ask in restaurants if things have been purified- they have! Enjoy the beautiful Mayan smiles.
Enjoy the cruise, and have a few shots for me!
ReplyDeleteHave lots of fun on the cruise Joy! Take lots of photos for us.
ReplyDeletehave fun and be naughty
