March Babe

Lurked for too long. Pics are fabulous. I ❤️ NYC and the Love Boat tune.

Amazing. Wonderful. What a superb story. Fantastic memories. I agree; you should write a book. I'll stand in line to purchase and meet the author.

I have been lurking again, reading and enjoying every word and pic. We just returned from the Regal Princess which I believe you will sail on her soon. If you haven't tried the Winemaker's dinner or the Chef's Table on Princess you may want to consider doing these. We enjoyed every bite.

Can you please give me your thoughts on Amber Cove? Thanks.

Looking so forward to this. My mornings just got better.

I have been lurking but love Bob Dylan and Desolation Row. Enjoying the blog. Leaving in a couple of weeks for my 10th Princess Cruise. However, I believe #11 may be X. :)

Sending healing thoughts to you. Enjoy your adventures in NYC.

Say it isn't over. It can't be. Thanks for letting me tag along.

Hate to see your cruise end. (You probably did also). I am looking forward to your views on Barcelona. One of my favorite cities ever. Hope you have your walking shoes on. So much fun.

Looking forward to following your cruise. Hope you love the Regal. We will be boarding her the end of February. So far we have enjoyed those marvelous photos. Take care and have fun.

I have been a lurker, but no more. This is truly a wonderful read. We spent 2 weeks in Italy several years ago and revisited some areas during a Med Cruise. I really want to return since there is so much more to see. Keep the pics and comments coming. You are a remarkable writer.

We were on the 10/2 Canada/New England cruise and found ATD a disaster. One evening we waited one hour for a table of four. Two other nights were thirty to forty minutes. If you can get the dine line each morning you could make reservations around 7:30 to 8:00.

These tours are not always available.

 

We stayed at the LHR Hilton as we had points to do so.

Did you find this Hilton property centrally located and convenient? We are planning on going to London pre cruise in 2015 and are considering this hotel. We also would use points and have Diamond status. Thanks.

In a perfect world - I would do the last Baltic cruise of the season and do the Transatlantic westbound! You would do all the Baltic ports first and then enjoy a leisurely 15 days to recuperate - plus you would get to do Paris! That was my favorite port of all - we took the Princess tour and had lunch on the Seine river - it was heavenly!

Thanks, again. We will probably do the Baltic alone. We have been to Paris (post cruise) for 5 days. However, I won't complain if I have to do that city again. Loved it.

Thank you for doing this "live". My DH and I thoroughly enjoyed reading daily. We cancelled the Baltic trip this year because a grandson is due the day we were to leave. However, we will do next summer. We printed your port summaries and will use them as planning tools for next summer. Currently having difficulty deciding between the TA or the Baltic alone.

Glad you enjoyed the cruise. Welcome home and continue enjoying through wonderful memories.

The videos and pictures are absolutely amazing. I am not scheduled for her yet but can hardly wait to book a cruise on this magnificent lady.

One beautiful lady. :)

Have a wonderful cruise. I so wanted to do this one but we were unable to workout the schedule. Maybe next year:). I look forward to cruising through your eyes.

Thanks for letting us cruise along. Enjoy your number 75 as number 1.

I am very interested in the schedules for the Regal late Spring and early Summer of 2015. Hope they are published soon. I certainly enjoyed the beautiful Royal in November and look forward to cruising her sister.

Cool, we have several hammocks from Pawleys Island. My mom lives in Surfside and we visit the shops around the Original Hammock store at least once a year.

 

Anyway, we going on the Ruby for the 1st time in 26 days. Love the info!

Enjoy your Ruby cruise. Love those hammocks.

Excellent. Can't wait to sail again.

We'll be on the Ruby from the 18th to the 23rd. What kind of music does Icon play? My wife and I love to dance, mostly the Carolina Shag. Thanks and enjoy your trip.

Just noticed you are from Pawleys Island. We lived there 8 years and still visit several times a year. We lived in Heritage. Have fun on your cruise. We love the Ruby.

Did not have the seafood from the Ocean Terrace. Wow, looks like I missed out on a great one. Guess I will just have to do a return trip. Sure am enjoying this thread. :D

Pics are fabulous. Memories of this beautiful ship are reappearing in my mind. Wish I were back on that beautiful gal.
