Cozzette2 Posted December 30, 2009 #26 Share Posted December 30, 2009 The cruise begins when I get into my cabin and runaround in circles and jump up and down. If I was younger I would be jumping on the bed. You would think I was 10 years old but that is how I look at my cruise, with childlike wonder.

Colorado Beach Bum Posted December 30, 2009 #28 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Cruise begins when the cell phone goes in the safe along with all normal forms of ID and Sail & Sign card is the only thing in my pocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

**bethwana** Posted January 18, 2010 #32 Share Posted January 18, 2010 I walk from the wharf, to the gangway onto the ship. Nothing beats the first walk around the decks to become familure with the ship :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celandine Posted June 11, 2011 #38 Share Posted June 11, 2011 as soon as I'm done filling in the paperwork and they hand me my sail and sign card.... I'm cruising. When I step onto the ship and start looking around with wonder.... I'm cruising. When I make my roomie hide stuff while I take the photos of the room before we 'move in'.... I'm cruising. When I get my first fun times/patters etc..... and start planning things out.... I'm cruising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennLuvs2Cruise Posted June 12, 2011 #39 Share Posted June 12, 2011 There was a thread similar to this one on the Carnival board. My answer would have to be when they scan my Sail & Sign card as I board the ship. That "bing!" sound makes it real for me :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dshin00 Posted June 17, 2011 #43 Share Posted June 17, 2011 The moment the sail and sign card is handed over (a quick check to ensure spelling is correct) and I place my wallet in my bag never to be used again......until I need cash. Darned, if Im not on a cruise:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How'sBartCruisin'? Posted August 3, 2011 #46 Share Posted August 3, 2011 I know I'm cruising when....first night at sea and I go out on the balcony to see nothing but darkness, some white water crashing around the boat and the "woosh" sound that it makes as we move towards our first destination. *aaaahhhh* :) Bart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
