There's nothing like...

[Lucky TGO]

You know, that cool sound that was made when you inserted your cruise card upon boarding.:D (As opposed to that nasty sound when it didn't like your card.:eek:) When you heard that magic sound, you knew you were cruising!

Harry now I remember that "Cool Sound" :D. Harry, Thank You for serving our country & protecting our freedoms!!! Happy sailing to you and your family.

i miss the "ding". Would probably describe it as more of a "bong".

 

Cheers.

I always get a feeling of excitement and anticipation as I walk down the corridor to our cabin, kind of like coming home. Also, coffee on the balcony in the quiet of the morning with the sea as my view.

 

I've always believed that stepping onto a Princess ship is like coming home. The whole world fades away and you're suddenly in paradise!

Getting out the BIG suitcase & knowing you can pack as much as you want (even if it is only 7 days) cause you are driving to the port with trunk space to spare!!!

Sighting the ship from your trip down on I95...walking up the gangway...hearing the ship horn as you slip past the breakwater and head for the open sea....

 

26 days...:D

[BTromboneFrack]

Hearing " you can go on your cruise " from your doctor. :D

 

Yup. Have to wait a couple of weeks for the final go ahead. I just have to convince the surgeon I won't lift anything heavier than a pina colada or a

Guy's Burger.

The first look out on the new morning to see a different port than you were at yesterday.

Not telling DH about the Regal Princess ship's horn was going to play the Love Boat theme, being up top right under the Seawitch for sail away, and watching him get misty as the horn blew!! (misty eyed not from the loud noise but because it was fun and unexpected)

[Who Knew]

All of the above! :)

 

Totally agree with stepping off the gangway onto the ship deck. Doesn't matter how long the line to go through security, that first step onto the deck gets me every time.

 

Followed closely by that first step into my cabin.

 

Followed closely by stepping out on the balcony that first time.

 

Followed closely by watching sailaway from our own balcony.

 

Followed by that first walk around the ship, no matter how many times I've sailed on it before.

 

...

 

And, all of the above posts, lol.

1: Being retired and healthy enough to cruise.

2: Booking the lowest category OOV and being unexpectedly upgraded to a balcony :D.

3: Putting down your $ 100.00 for your next cruise because you know you going to take an other one.

4: Not having to fly for our upcoming cruise.

5: Having the best TA, she always seems to find the best deals.

6: Finding giftcards in your cabin from your kids that say "We love you, Enjoy".

 

And many more good reasons.
