5-to-cruise Posted September 29, 2009 #27 Share Posted September 29, 2009 53 days for us too! (I think... I have my counter set for when I last work, not the day I get on the boat). Liberty, W. Carrib. Our 2nd cruise with the first one being about 15 years ago! This time with 3 kids and a bunch of other family going. The fact I've been out here for months now shows how excited I am about it. :) I keep bringing home facts, links and sending pictures to my wife. Planning what we are going to do where. Printing off packing lists. Telling her the cheese cake is better from room service then from the MDR. :) I'm a little afraid of what its going to be like when I get a few weeks away. I might as well just stay home from work. rv Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMG, I'm so excited for everyone (and me). NUNU--I'm sorry you have no excitement--I hope you get some by way of booking something soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bumbles Posted September 29, 2009 #29 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Definitely excited...but it seems the closer we get, the SLOWER the time goes. Of course, when we're on the cruise, time will fly. I'm in early planning stages of our next cruise so it kind of keeps my mind off this one!! :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winterstale Posted September 29, 2009 #32 Share Posted September 29, 2009 Definitely excited...but it seems the closer we get, the SLOWER the time goes. Of course, when we're on the cruise, time will fly. I'm in early planning stages of our next cruise so it kind of keeps my mind off this one!! :p OMG too funny -- we sail the same day you do and I totally agree!! Time is CRAWLING!! And I've already planned our next trip as well - but it's a different kind of boat for that one :D We're sailing a 40 footer by ourselves in the BVI - we do it every year :D I cannot WAIT for November 1!!! Hmmm...I am looking foward to just relaxing! Meeting some new CC friends the first day at our roll call meeting, enjoying a cocktail (or 2 ;)), spending sometime in the Cloud 9 Spa (sailing Splendor), spending MORE time in the spa....drinking margaritas in Mexico....

Rare patrice1 Posted September 29, 2009 #33 Share Posted September 29, 2009 We cruise in 36 days :D. Our vacation starts in 32 days! Our vacation starts on Fantasy Fest weekend here in Key West (always fun)and we're away from work for 2 weeks, too. We're doing 8 days on the Miracle in our first Aft Wrap, and spending the night before in Ft. Lauderdale. Our last 2 cruises were 4 days with my Mom, so this one is all about us. There's so much going on in our lives, tho, that I never seemed to go all "Julie-the-Cruise-Director", planning like I usually do. We booked this cruise over a year ago and it kinda crept up on me this past month. Pet sitter - check Onboard account - check excursions planned - check packing - well, I can pack in an hour - check:o sorta excited? - check check check check:eek::D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cherylcorwin Posted September 30, 2009 #36 Share Posted September 30, 2009 20 days til the Paradise. It's a Halloween cruise & I've already got my costume packed (leopard t-shirt & pants, w/matching accessories). I love dressing up, especially since formal night is costume night, so I we don't have to do the tux/gown thing! Haven't even thought of what else to pack!

Ave43 Posted September 30, 2009 #37 Share Posted September 30, 2009 We have about 270 days to wait! Long time, but am as excited as ever! Have a great trip my fellow cruisers who will experience it before me! Ave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chachi Posted September 30, 2009 #38 Share Posted September 30, 2009 I am still in the 220 day range and it is only three days to the Bahamas. I am happy to be going, but a little too far out to be excited. It seems like forever away. I did a 3 day last May, and a week long cruise for my birthday in July. I plan on doing the same this year, although my July cruise it not booked yet. I am very excited for the July one because I plan on booking the Dream. I have never been on a new ship and am excited to see all that it has to offer. I am also excited to be sailing to a tropical destination. Last year I went to Alaska and I missed the tropical weather and Carribean music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParksFamily5 Posted September 30, 2009 #42 Share Posted September 30, 2009 We sail in 43 days! (leave in 42) on the Destiny. I am very excited! The Fascination was our first cruise ( just a 3 day to see if I could handle it without getting really sick. I loved cruising so much that we booked a trip on Princess as soon as we got home. Our last 2 cruises have been on Disney with the children. This one is just for mom and dad. I think that is why I am super excited. I can't wait!

CaribbeanLVR Posted September 30, 2009 #43 Share Posted September 30, 2009 This will be our first cruise over Christmas holiday. We are all VERY excited, ( us three, sister, and her family and parents who gave us this trip for Christmas). I also TRY not to come to C.C everyday so it goes by quicker, and each day I look on the CArnival web site to look at excursions is says" Carnival welcomes Timothy to board in 90 days, 89, 88," Think were down to 84. Heck I have even been to Target to get all my handi wipes, tanning lotion, and little stuff that will be hard to find in the Winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deborah grimes Posted October 15, 2009 #48 Share Posted October 15, 2009 We leave in 43 days! We will be on the Fascination for 5 days. I'm looking forward to the grands sailing with us. Cameron 7, and Naome will be 1 on Nov 3rd. Her first cruise. Nothing like making her an addicted before she can really talk!;) A little story why I'm so excited. This pass summer we (DH and I) was supposed to take them to Disney World. DH ended up in the Hospital the week before and had to have ambient surgery . (we almost lost him). So my DS and DB took them for me and we missed out! So we are both so looking forward on spending time with them. They live in a different state then we do. We don't get to see them very often. Also this will be our 29th anniversary. (Nov, 1st) So we are celebrating granddaughter turning 1 and our 29th anniv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
