VACruiser Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 I got stuck going on a Carnival Cruise to attend my son's wedding as they got married in Grand Cayman last year (2017) and I didn't, at the time, have any interest on going on a cruise. My wife,on the hand, loved the thought of it and planned everything; as I didn't want to know a thing other than to show up. Well I loved it and I think I have an issue now - I think I have become a cruiser - I now have three cruises set-up for the next three years out to 2020, two of which will be on the Freedom of the Seas out of Puerto Rico. The other day I was contemplating my 2020 cruise when I looked at an ABC Island Cruise (March 08, 2020), with St. Thomas included on the way back, and saw a Hump Cabin - JR Suite 9338 was available...did some research, and deck reviewing, along with reading peoples opinions, and thought it looks cool so lets do it. I leaned over and asked my wife if she wanted this cruise and she said, I don't care, lets just go on a cruise . By the way, these Cruises on the FOTS are 5 months apart from each other. I should become familiar with the ship on these two events. So, do I have a problem now or what? hayley_bopp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest toodle68 Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 Same thing happened to me.. the thought of being stuck on a cruise ship horrified me. Wife arranged the first cruise and I loved it.. and now I do all the bookings, research and am the one asking her if she wants to cruise more..

tiny260 Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 @Floski, I was the same way, 1 per year, last year went on 2, in the next 7 months I have 3, June, October, Jan-19, then I wait for the RCB group cruise in Jul-19, but it is 9 night... So what I'm saying is you have to get your priorities straight, YOLO. Floski 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fonemanbob Posted June 6, 2018 Report Share Posted June 6, 2018 You don`t have a problem now.. You did have a problem in respect to not wanting to go on a cruise. The sad thing was while living in Orlando for 10 years we should have been cruising a lot and did not. Ten years removed now its a yearly event for us. They are so much fun and very relaxing.

I hope the picture attachments work. I've never done it before... The Freedom is awesome. It was our third cruise on that ship.
