doree Posted February 23, 2005 #51 Share Posted February 23, 2005 There are certain times you go to CERTAIN places.......friends went to Alaska in August and saw NOTHING b/c it was very foggy the whole trip......doesnt matter what line you are on, and you dont do Carrib during hurricane season..... !!! You will get great prices and you may luck out!!!! It is luck of the draw. As I said..........CHANGE is good, and Celeb needed change - new itineraries/destinations.

I've been to Alaska 4 times in August and had good weather each time. I've also been there in May, June and September. You never really know for sure what you'll get in Alaska, but August was as good as any other time. Did you look at the pictures from our cruise last August 29 back on the last page of this thread? That's my cousin out on her balcony on the Inside Passage with shorts and a halter top. We had one day of rain. There's always a little rain. I've never seen any fog in 7 cruises.

Rare Lois R Posted February 23, 2005 #53 Share Posted February 23, 2005 I hope the tone of this thread is not turning mean:(. Up until this point it had been interesting reading. There will always be people who sail the Caribbean during Hurricane Season. If not on X, then on A, B, or C Cruiseline. But people sail the Caribbean 12 months a year. And there will always be people who do Alaska in In the late summer as well. Same scenerio. Just an observation. Back to your regularly scheduled program now;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just disagree about Alaska and since I've been there a lot I thought the people who have booked cruises in August would like to hear that my experience has been good. I think Lois wondered about the capital letters you used when telling everyone where they should and should not go. Maybe you're not aware that using capitals online is equivalent to shouting. It may sound silly, but your use of punctuation and the capital letters make it seem as if you are very aggressive in your response. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
