bcarney Posted October 4, 2016 Report Share Posted October 4, 2016 You know you are addicted to cruising when people ask how old your children are, and you have to respond "Right now? I have no idea, but they're 11 and 9 when I do my mock bookings for April 2018."

Marc Posted October 4, 2016 Report Share Posted October 4, 2016 I had to give sad news to my younger son last night. We were discussing Crown & Anchor status with Royal Caribbean, and he asked how many more cruises until I get to be Diamond Plus. I told him about 6 or 7, and he commented "Great, then I'll be Diamond Plus, too!" I explained that the link between my status and his ended last year when he turned 18. He was saddened by that, and barely comforted by me explaining that Diamond is a great level to be at. coneyraven, bcarney, ericreev and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobroo Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 You know you are addicted to cruising when you stand back and look at how complex you've made your life onshore by obsessively charging everything to a certain credit card in order to accrue airline miles so that you can fly to your next cruise for free. And, further complicate your life because that credit card offers more than average miles at certain restaurants or certain online retailers or certain gas stations--which you will gladly go way out of your way for--just to attain a few more miles. coneyraven 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted October 5, 2016 Report Share Posted October 5, 2016 Examples! Gabby is hysterical, so I can only imagine how this manifests.
