I just wanted to send you a big "thank you!!" for this thread. Seriously - comments and photos are AMAZING!
After traveling extensively elsewhere, we finally said - why have we never done a cruise?? LOL. We will be taking the plunge on Ovation later in July for our maiden voyage.
Your blog here (and others' comments) answered tons of our silly "first timer" questions. We feel like there are many little unknowns about cruising (how long until our bags get to our room on day 1, what's the MDR like, should we grab a North Star slot during Endicott Arms/Dawes, etc etc etc...) - so we feel a bit more prepared.
I know this took a lot of your time - so thank you again - you got us very excited about cruising. ?
