That is great news, Ed. I'm sure you'll put that extra money to good use on the cruise.

If you go to the Celebrity website and do a "Virtual Tour" of the Continental deck, there is a 365 degree picture of one of those cabins. Here's the address: Mercury Deck Layout

We don't do many beach days,but I think that on this cruise, St. Thomas will be a beach day. We were there on our last two cruises, and have seen about as much as we want. Of course, Cindy will want to save some time to do some shopping in St. Thomas. Last year we toured St. John, and that is one beautiful island.

BON VOYAGE, select7777!! Have a terrific cruise!

How sad. I see this ship rotting away every day on my way to and from work. Even with all of the rust and such, you can still see the wonderful silhouette that she strikes. I wish that I had sailed on her in her day... The SS United States docked in Philadelphia has been put up for sale. A preservation group for the mothballed ocean liner fears a buyer could end up using it as scrap metal. Steven Ujifusa, who was a volunteer production assistant for the above video, has a story on PlanPhilly about the ship's possible sale and an awareness campaign launched by The S.S. United States Conservancy to save the ship. This is part of what he had to say. Today, many observers are terrified that the ship- which captured world headlines in July 1952 with its record-breaking maiden voyage from New York to Southampton - will make its final voyage. If she is towed to the breakers, there will be no streamers, cheering well-wishers, or Navy planes soaring overhead to give her a final send off. In 2003, NCL purchased the ship with the intention of restoring her as a world-class cruise liner. But these promises have come to naught. Would you miss the sight of the SS United States on the Delaware River in Philly? What would you do if you owned the ship but didn't have enough money to fix it up? Do you think a buyer could be found who would restore her? This is her today

I can't disagree. if you can do it, go for it. For cross-country, 1st class is the way to go.
