The worst part is the rep and her boss discussing which excuse to use on the poor schlub on the line.

Wow. That is pretty pathetic. I bet it felt good when you got off the phone, though.

Fine. But no steenking pictures of a gym or any other workout area!!! I'm pretty sure I've gained about 10 pounds just reading your blogs!!!!

Can't wait to see the Northstar Photos!

Maybe they'll do something awesome for my birthday!!! I hope they let me ski behind the ship!

I'm pretty sure that, on your second sailing, you get some perks, but nothing to write home about.

Oh....my....goodness. I would never go home.

Dang, that's gonna be one mass of humanity. I guess we're lucky; there are only three ships in Coz on our day in Jan. Can't wait for Nachi!!

Our Oasis package is on "sale", but no better than I got a few weeks ago. $43.00pp

I'm hoping I can convince Matt to grab me a few bottles of this on his next voyage:

Fantastic. Thanks.

A guy can dream, can't he??

As an Air Force vet, the first time I saw this I was in awe. We got to look at these F-16s and F-15 a lot, as our room was close to that elevator. ***I'm such an idiot. The middle plane is obviously an F-18, not a 15. I don't deserve to be in the Air Force...*** This blog is amazing; thank you for taking the time to post all of this! Oh yeah - that blown glass art in and around Bolero is gorgeous!

Preferrably Barrel Aged!!

They reallllly don't want you to be late back to the ship from your excursion!

Also -use a porter once you get inside. Best move I've ever made (and my back was already killing me so it was a double win!). Tip him/her well - they deserve it.

Same thing happened to me, Diane. Since I didn't have internet access, I couldn't research the watch. It was a helluva markdown, but when I got home, I realized that it (also an Invicta) was cheaper pretty much everywhere I looked (even Invicta.com). However, I absolutely love the watch (even though it runs fast and if I don't wear it every single day it stops, so I am forever having to reset the time/date). I'll know better next time. Not mad at all...had I not been on vacation, I wouldn't have bought it, and I get a ton of compliments!

Man, I'm going to love this blog! As you can see below, I've only been on two cruises, both on Freedom, so it's kinda like visiting my baby. I so love that ship! Keep 'em coming, pal!!

FTFY Gratis...

On behalf of a grateful blog nation, thank you, Matt! You're aces in our book!

Matt is going to be the new Captain of the Symphony! Michael Poole will be his Gilligan. Congrats all round!

It's almost as if RC is daring Mother Nature...

Thursday, the day my TA gets back to me and says she called and RC says that Oasis doesn't have that activity, it shows up on the website. Seriously?? It's $119, so I think I'm going to hold off until BF and see if any good discounts show up. I really can't understand just how jumbled up RC is WRT their own people on the phones, the website, and the TA.
