bungee Posted April 27, 2012 #4 Share Posted April 27, 2012 Kama dictates that once you request time to speed up it will unfortunately also speed up how quickly your glorious cruise will be over and nothing but a lovely memory. Therefore, stop and smell the roses. Stop and enjoy a lovely sunset from your backyard. Stop and enjoy a pizza from your favorite restaurant. Hopefully every day of your cruise will feel like it is at least 48 hours long. Have a fantastic time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, when the cruise gets here, then time can tick slow...thats ok with me. thankfully im out working (sitting by the pool in atlanta...tough job right) and hoping to stay out working until my days off start on may 7th. that helps time go a bit more quick. worked alot of overtime so i can buy more drinks on the ship.

maldenmusic Posted April 27, 2012 #7 Share Posted April 27, 2012 My adult daughter and I cruise again in 31 days-have a wonderful trip! For me, the time is going by fast because of all the end of the school year things I do as a teacher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ripjerry95 Posted April 27, 2012 #12 Share Posted April 27, 2012 You are a good daughter. I know the waiting is agonizing. I wish I had two weeks to go. I am still 47 days away. Have a great cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tlbutler33 Posted April 30, 2012 #15 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Enjoy!!! That is really awesome. You are a great daughter, and your Mom must be very special. I upgraded to a Grand Suite for our upcoming June cruise and tried to keep it secret, but I am terrible at that and told my wife that evening... I hope you can hold out and keep the secret, that is a great surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lbow2006 Posted April 30, 2012 #16 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Oh I know how you feel. I hate waiting, but since we don't sail until the end of September I'm doing my best not to wish away summer. I'm ready for the cruise, but not ready enough to give up summer and come right back into fall, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andoria Posted April 30, 2012 #18 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Wow I hope my mother doesn't read these boards. She will turn 70 on our cruise in November. My presence is the only present she's getting:) Have a wonderful cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
