Wow, that sounds awesome! DH and I still work full time, so we have to plan around work, my job being quite flexible, his not so much, as he runs the IT department of a smaller company and just cannot take off unless they're closed, or maybe a day or so otherwise a week. They close for 2 weeks at Christmas, unfortunately the most expensive time to cruise.....any hints on getting cheaper Christmas cruises, btw?

I love to dress up, and rarely get the chance anymore,(they even wear pants at church now), so YES! Hubs could care less, but Mr. Sweetness does it to make me happy, plus I boost his ego by telling him how handsome he looks, so win/win ?

Anyone else on this cruise?

Anyone else doing this Christmas cruise?

Sailing out of Mobile for the first time. Anyone else on this cruise?

We will be on her 2 weeks before you! We're also on the Vision the week before you! And we're from Indiana too! lol?

We will be disembarking her the day you embark. I will wave in passing. ? Christmas spent on a cruise sounds like the best possible Christmas present to us!

Hi Jan! I obviously LOVED the Dawn, as it has spawned this addiction! We sailed out of Tampa, and went to Costa Maya, Cozumel, Honduras, and Harvest Caye. We went zip lining high above the jungle canopy in Honduras, visited the Mayan ruins in Cozumel, went exploring on our own (after first finding it was safe to do so) in the small town of Mahahual and ended up at an awesome place called the Krazy Lobster with the best guac I've ever tasted and served to us with our toes in the sand, and lastly spent about an hour in Harvest Caye (our least fav port so far). We had the time of our lives, saw 10 years drop off Hubs and I as we danced under the stars at night and woke up early to just get the most out of every minute, met such wonderful fellow cruisers, laughed more than we had in years, dressing up and going to all the shows(we loved the comedy and married couple ones the best) and eating a ridiculous amount of food (we each gained 10 lbs in that week and took 4 to get it off and wouldn't change a thing!) It was truly a life changing trip, and we just can't believe we waited this long to discover cruising. I'm 51, and my DH is 56, and we feel this is the start of exciting new adventures as empty nesters, entering a new season of our lives!

My name is Kelly, and me and my DH Jim went on our 1st cruise 2 months ago(NCL Dawn/ 2/18-25/18), and now we are SO hooked, we have 3 more booked ? (Carnival Fantasy/ 8/30/18...RC Vision /12/22/18...RC Rhapsody/ 2/2/19, all less than $100/day pp, which is our limit) That will be 4 cruises within our first year! Hubbs possibly thinks I've gone a wee bit crazy, but it's all I think about when I'm not working. Which is what brought me to this site, as I am truly a new but totally smitten cruise crazy lady, and hoped to find some cruise crazy company in my new addiction. I don't even want to go shopping anymore, just so I can save more money to go on a cruise! Please tell me I'm not insane. I never want to go on any other kind of vacation again, ever....
