If I won the cruise of course I would go.

May lose my job for being gone so long.

Oh wait I have been gone 3 months but on Medical leave.

My concerns would not so much be the cost but.

90 days onboard means How do I smuggle?

90 bottles of wine.

45 twelve packs of beer

90 cases of soda

22 bottles of Rum

22 bottles of Vodka

and the other big question is ;;;;;;;;;;

Is this a Bare Necessities cruise or a regular cruise.

That would make a big difference on how we pack clothes.

I have so many questions......

No question about it, we would go in a New York minute!! I'm semi-retired and work only when I feel like it and when they throw so much money at me I can't say no. So, the time is no factor at all. Wife is retired five years now.

I'm sure we could pony up the required cash. Our house and pit sitter is standing by, so cast off the lines we're coming aboard!! :biggrin:

All this reminds me that I still have two more seminars to teach before we sail away on March 24th. Cutting it close this time. Return to LV on friday evening the 16th and fly to Florida on the 17th. I'll pack for the cruise and Disney World before I leave for the seminar and just move my shaving stuff and I'm good to go. Gee I'll get to see both Oceans in about 36 hours!

It's a tough job, but someones got to do it :excl:

Seriously, we have good friends who sail all the time. He teachs onboard computer classes for Princess and they just flew out Monday and will be gone for 10 weeks this time. They come home for a couple of months and then head out again. Cruise is free and he gets paid based on the number of students in the classes he teachs. His laundry is free, but she has to do her own. :sad2:

Anyway if any of you win this cruise and can't use it, think of us first.

I would go in a heartbeat,but the DH might not be able to get that much time off from work. Financially, it wouldn't be a problem, but some employers are funny about people taking that much time off.

Sigh, we'll have to wait until he retires for that cruise.

Being away for 90 days seems like a bit long. Not sure I would go if everything was paid and I didn't have to pay anything. . . I like to go on cruises, but love to be home with my family also. I think the longest I would go on a cruise for would be about 10 days.
