I’m sooo ready!

Hope we can get you ready to go!

As a group planning a cruise, you find out a lot about people. Some are planners, some aren’t, some can’t get the app to function. 😆 But everyone is excited. Christmas gifts all included cruising gifts from snorkels and fins to sea bands. We also all got a “shore thing” for Puerto Plata. So we will be catamaran-ing it up from Souza Beach. DH and I did this excursion last November on our Mardi Gras cruise, yet he doesn’t remember. Sooo it’ll be new to almost everyone. 🙄 I actually didn’t snorkel last time because the water seemed too choppy. Hopefully this time will be different. I actually opened the open bar and took pictures with the captain 🤷🏼‍♀️ This time should be fun!

Thanks! Let’s do this!!

He’ll try anything twice. 😆 He’s glad this time he can hang out with “the guys” and I can go with my sister to Test Kitchen and the Diva show without him.

A little back story about this cruise: This cruise started out as my sister’s honeymoon cruise. She got married during Covid, but the actually wedding wasn’t until this summer. They wanted to celebrate everything, and for lots of us to go, so here we are, 8 cabins deep. This cruise was originally booked out of Puerto Rico on Resilient Lady in March 2022. Sadly, VV had to push RL, so we switched to Valiant. Hopefully they will all enjoy this sailing so much, we will do the southern route next time. This group consists of everything from a young couple to a couple in their 70’s, and everyone has at least a sea terrace, so hammocks for everyone.

Adults only, great food, and included internet… worth it!

New LIVE

Ahoy cruisers! It’s almost time for my highly anticipated 8 night cruise on Valiant Lady. I hope you’ll join me as we fly to Miami (Friday) and set sail to Puerto Plata, San Juan, St. Croix and Bimini. I previously sailed on Scarlet Lady in November, but this is a group cruise with several brand new sailors and one “Carnival only” sailor. We are excited to visit a few new ports (St. Croix is new for me) and hopefully have several catch the “cruising bug”. The reservations have been made. Bags are almost packed. Mail hold submitted. The kids disgruntled, but tell that to Sir Richard Branson 😆. We can’t wait to eat all the food, drink all the cocktails and bring you along for every moment.

Thanks WhaleTail! It was fun. Sorry you have to go home, but I’m almost ready to go. Appreciate the fun.

Yes! I feel like this will help with the preconceived “swinger” perception. Or whatever people think.

It’s the new ad campaign for wave season. I like it.

Hope it stays that way.

I’m on that sailing as well! The original time was midnight. Then they changed the hours July or August. Bimini was 8-8. San Juan 12-12. Etc.

😬 Hope we don’t have to abandoned ship with all these points lol

There are other cruise lines… I’m doing a live from Virgin in a week. They include the wifi price and with my status match, I get free premium. I’m sure at a later date, I’ll work out the math. I may even get one more in before the hike. I just think that’s a high price for what you get. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Resorts include wifi. Carnival prices aren’t that cheap these days.

Personally, this will end my Carnival LIVE situation.

We had YTD on the Panorama a couple of weeks ago, and the wait was never over 10 minutes.

Thank you.

What time is that usually?

Had to switch laptops and one of my biggest worried was getting back into AllState. I’ve had massive problems before when I couldn’t remember the login details, but I’m happy to report, I got logged in and info save on the new computer, first try. The wheel, however, wasn’t as friendly today.
