Your nails are slammin! I love the colours and am going to suggest them to my wife for our Nov. cruise. I always enjoy your dialogue when you post; probably more than the pictures. I hope y'all are having a blast!

I think that's what I would like to do when we go. Walk around and take it in, maybe hit the rum factory, and I'd love to find a really good lunch. Then probably back on the ship for some lazing around.

...tis but a twitch! One of my biggest conundrums is where to have my first drink. In Jan, it was the Champagne bar, because it was the first one we saw as we stepped onboard! I like the Trellis bar, but I looooove the Solarium bar. Regardless, it'll be early!

So are we! Less than 13 weeks!!

I don't know why, but it really bugs me that RC charges $3 for a container of popcorn. I mean - other than a pot of rice, is there anything that costs less to cook??? Loving your pics!

Suite Snobs! I like it. I need to find a name for us poor peeps who cruise down here:

95 days until I get back on this lovely girl. I fear, though, that I'll never be able to sail in a suite, so I'm enjoying your blog (although that was damn ambitious of y'all to fly from Tiger Town to Miami on the day of your cruise!). Maybe, someday....

LOL For your first "big" post, you really knocked it out of the park! Great job! I'm not sure I'll ever sail a smaller ship, but this was a very nice primer. Thanks

Love your pictures!! As a craft beer man myself, I sure wish I could have joined you and hubby for a pint or two! Have a great embarkation and lovely cruise!

Agree with Sweety - if there's nothing I can do about it, then I'll just make the best of it! Ellcee, you sound like you have this life thing worked out pretty well!

Oh man, such a tragedy. I can't imagine what she and her family are going through. Prayers for them. ?

My girl

Have a fabulous day 1!! It seems a while since we've had a Caribbean Blog, so I'm really looking forward to travelling along with you. Harmony is definitely a big enough girl to find some solace, and I hope you don't have to seek it out for medicinal purposes! Bon voyage!

I knew there was a reason why I like you beyond your blogging prowess...

Excellent write up/comparison! We went to Nachi in January (thankfully, they didn't make us take a picture upon arrival) and enjoyed it. It was relatively cool and a bit overcast, but there was hardly anyone there! It wasn't nearly as crowded as it is in your pics; I'm assuming this seldom happens. If we go back to Coz, I'm not sure if we'll do Nachi or just explore town. If we do another inclusive, I'll absolutely do Nachi again.

Dude, I am so totally enjoying this blog. I love the sloths, and the drinks, and the nap, and the.....blah blah!

Trip be damned, I'm so relieved for both of you that he is doing well. That said - go and enjoy, relax, and have fun with your sweetie!

I'm really enjoying your blog so far. Your writing style is easy to flow through and you hit on some interesting topics. Since we're visiting Nassau for the first time in Nov, I loved your experiences there.

I wonder if anyone would notice if I were to use this as my silhouette in my sig line... As a seeeeeenior gold C&A member, I get first dibs on my oar and window.

Back of the line, lady!!!

Our November cruise will be the third out of our 4 sailings that will have St. Thomas and St. Maarten as stops. I really love them both and am still excited to go there, but my wife wants new ports and I'm relatively sure I literally heard her eyes roll when I told her I wanted this one. I had to sell Nassau big-time!

Isn't she? And man, she looks tremendous - must be a workout-aholic! ...I wonder if she needs her dog polished or her car walked...

I was 54 on my first cruise in '16. If I had the means, I'd be going 3-4 times a year, but I'll have to be satisfied with @ 1 a year. Go ahead - let me win that lottery...I double-dog dare ya
