    Daniel5390 got a reaction from SweetPea in Cruising through the Panama Canal backwards?   
    I was sitting at the dinner table on Vision of the Seas and someone asked, "Who has plans for a future cruise?" so I told everyone that I'll be sailing on Radiance of the Seas in October.
    The next evening, everybody seemed knowledgeable about my pick and I realized that they must have visited the Next Cruise help desk and asked about it.
    It felt promising that all of these seasoned cruisers at our diner table were interested enough to gather some more information about it.
    They were a little critical of it though because it's a "repositioning cruise" and because it "goes through the Panama Canal backwards". I have no idea why those are supposed to be bad things. Any ideas?
    We'll be flying from our home in Nashville to Los Angeles, cruising from Los Angeles to Tampa, and then we will fly from Tampa back to Nashville.
    Two things that I appreciate about this cruise is that when you're cruise is over, you just want to get back home and our "long haul" flight to Los Angeles is done and over with on day one.
    The second thing is that on my previous cruise is that we had five port days back to back and I thought that was too much too fast. I think this one has a sea day in between each port day. Awesome.
