    Right. We haven't paid anything yet and won't until final payment is due.

    My wife and I are seriously considering driving down to Galveston in September. We have the extra time since it was supposed to be a back to back celebrating our oldest son's wedding, but they rescheduled to 2022 and we already have the pto approved. We're only doing one cruise now. I think part of this is because we are sooooo ready to go on a real vacation. Vacations during 2020 turned into "remodel the house" weeks.

    Some more info on booking flights to Barbados through Air2Sea. We are booked non-stop on Jet Blue from Boston (Jan 30, 2022) and there is a $215 pp cancellation charge. I was made aware of the charges before I booked. We booked economy, so that may play into it. It's not a big deal to us, but I figured I'd share so people are aware.

    Royal is actually late to the game. Anyone bought building materials lately? They are through the roof, and people are willing to pay even though they gripe while doing so. I believe cruising will be the same lol...just realized my pun...not intended.

    Thank you for the blog. I really enjoyed reading and seeing the pictures.

    Fingers crossed for our September sailing on Liberty. We’re flying in a few days early to play tourists.

    Remember crossing the border pre 9/11? My hometown is 10 miles from the boundary. Since it was so isolated from the rest of the state, everyone did a lot of business in Canada. Going through Customs both ways consisted of a wave as you drove by.

    Maybe if someone doesn’t want “the Man” to have info on them? ? On a serious note, I never saw the need for one until I started needing it to go back and forth to Canada. I had never traveled anywhere that I needed it before then. When my wife got naturalized, they told her to get a US passport asap as that was the way she could prove US citizenship. That opened my eyes a bit since our state has stalled on the Real ID driver’s licenses

    Yup

    We feel the same way about staycations. I've had enough of them over the past year. For some reason I always end up taking on multi-day projects around the house.

    Thank you!! I'm old enough that I shouldn't do this, but I tend to forget about actually calling places rather than using the internet.

    Seems to be a glitch with the Air2Sea site right now. I keep getting this error message, "Air Selected Recommendation service call failed"

    lol Now I feel old ??

    @twangsterThank you for that information. We hadn't booked the flights through Air2Sea since we assumed it required full payment (and didn't realize it would be refundable).

    That's amazing

    I definitely remember the air gun in boot camp and before my first deployment.....but after that, my memories are kind of blurry. My first 6 month WestPac deployment turned into 19 months thanks to Desert Shield/Storm. I came back, drank a lot, and was sent back over with another detachment after a few months so I'd stay out of trouble.

    I remember pre-deployment shot fairs.....we'd ask each corpsman "What's this shot for?" They'd respond "I dunno, keep moving"

    I plan on getting the vaccine as soon as it's available for me to get......and I've been masking it up at work for a long time now....so if they are required it won't bother me in the least. I work in a supermarket and have for over 30 years.....I have never experienced a year like the one we just had....I am soooooo ready to go on a cruise again!!

    Thank you for letting all of us cruise with you

    Our youngest and I were in Cozumel in Jan 2020 when he was 19. We did the atv/cenote swim excursion through Royal, and after we got back from riding, he had a couple shots of the tequila they sample. It wasn't an issue......actually, no one seemed to care one way or the other that he was over 18. I wasn't with him when he went up either, so it wasn't like they saw he was with a parent. I don't drink anymore and have no interest in learning about the different types of tequila available in Mexico.....Jose Cuervo and I stopped talking a couple decades ago. ?

    For our cruise next Jan, Air2Sea shows $535 per person from BOS to Bridgetown (Jan 30/Feb 6 2022, arriving the day of the cruise). Non-stop on Jet Blue both ways. $80 pp for round trip shuttle to/from airport Neither Google Flights nor any airline site lets me see flights past Jan 23rd or so.

    So most of the people we work with think we're nuts, but I bet some of you understand the excitement. We just booked a 7-night on Grandeur Jan 30, 2022. The "Island Hop" itinerary. We've only sailed on one Vision class ship.....Vision....and really enjoyed her. We're looking forward to experiencing Grandeur now as well. A humongous thanks to @michelle at MEI for her patience with us while we were getting our ducks in a row so we could book it.
