I personally, would not go to an optometrist while on a cruise, unless it was an absolute emergency. I go once a year and I really do dislike going, mostly because of the test that they puff air into your eyes. While cruising, I only want to think about pleasant and enjoyable things. I would be more comfortable going to the same practice I had been a patient at for many years - if I have any kind of problem with my contacts or glasses, I can get it taken care quickly. I am just curious, if you had an issue with a vision prescription that was filled at sea, who would remedy that once you returned home? I realize that you could go to your regular optometrist at that time, but then you would not only be out the money you spent at the shipboard eye dr., but also the cost of a visit to your regular vision care provider.

Seems that Carnival has the highest number of incidents. As I only cruise on Carnival, I guess I had better be careful. Actually, I do not see how one could fall overboard with the railings being as high as they are. The only scenario I could really envision it happening would be if the ship would list greatly to one side. Maybe if they were quite tall...I am 5'7" and the railings are always higher than my waist, so I don't see how you could just fall over one.

Chrissy and Brandon, may all your days at sea be smooth and filled with sun and fun and may all your days in port be adventurous. Anchors aweigh……

FrostyBoy, you are always on late at night, so was wondering if you are in the "vampire line of work???"

Fox News said it was the Grand Princess and the couple were rescued 4 hrs. after they "went missing", but that is all that was said about it.

That would be your cruise documents, such as tickets, boarding passes, etc.

Arvids, congrats on receiving the docs. That was really early. Are you going to be wearing that Cruise Crazies pin on your speedo?

Sewut, congrats on the "impending arrival". I usually feel like I have "eaten for two" onboard anyway....

Mebert, congrats on the docs. I'm dancing too. Now the real countdown begins.....

I saw on the news recently that they have actually made a tool for opening those hard plastic containers. My luck, I wouldn't be able to get the package open to use the tool.
