I took my first cruise in December of 1975 on the Carnival Mardi Gras. Lived in Pittsburgh, PA at the time. Flew to Miami, cruised for seven nights, returned to Pittsburgh for a grand total of $500. AH, the good old days . Looking forward to Carnival Valor sailing April 20 from San Juan where we will be celebrating my graduation from South Carolina, and our 25th anniversary. Cruised the Celebration for our honeymoon.

And I'll bet you got a real meal on that flight, your bags flew free and you probably even got a pillow and blanket. Yes, those were the days! Congrats on your upcoming graduation and your anniversary - perfect reasons to cruise - not that we need a reason!

Welcome aboard, Steelelady! My first cruise was in 1979 on the "Mardi Gras" sister ship the "Carnivale." Congratulations on your graduation and your 25th anniversary!

Hi Steelelady. I hope you allow some time to see the sights of San Juan before or after your cruise. Visit Castillo de San Felipe Del Morro or San Cristóbal if you get the chance. (I like the latter. It's bigger.)

Congrats all around: anniversary, graduation, another cruise, and finding us on the web.

We have never sailed from PR, but love it as a port. Definitely try to get there a day or so before you leave, or extend your vacation after.
