QuitMyDayJob Posted October 28, 2005 #26 Share Posted October 28, 2005 You all have wonderful friends and family! When we cruise we always order flowers for OURSELVES, and it does make a lovely difference all week long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creativemaggie Posted October 28, 2005 #27 Share Posted October 28, 2005 My husband and I started this tradition with our first cruise. We took our youngest daughter and husband on the last one and what fun to hear thier surprise upon opening their door and seeing balloons and bon voyage decorations hanging from the ceiling! The decorations are a bit pricey, but so much fun to hear the remarks! Plus knowing that someone took the time to plan ahead is special! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bankofdad Posted October 28, 2005 #28 Share Posted October 28, 2005 I always order flowers for DW and a bottle of champagne for the sail away. It just adds a little extra to see these things waiting in the stateroom at embarkation, and DW enjoys the flowers all week. Definitely worth every penny!

Murphy Posted October 28, 2005 #29 Share Posted October 28, 2005 Over the years, we've probably received almost all of the options. They were all great I thought except the cheese plate, avoid it at all costs! And I know a lot of people like the decorations, but I thought they were very cheesy, excuse the pun. Wine, flowers, strawberries, tote bag (fabulous for $19.95), casino credit and general credit were all good options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jkrislc Posted October 28, 2005 #31 Share Posted October 28, 2005 I did the decorations once, and did enjoy them, but they got annoying after a couple of days and we took them down. We still have the decorations and liked the fact that the streamers were cut out in the crowne and anchor, but they're not worth $29 either.

Slam308 Posted October 28, 2005 #32 Share Posted October 28, 2005 I had the choc. covered strawberries and champagne sent to my mom for her honeymoon cruise. She said they were delivered to the cabin the first night about an hour or two before dinner (late seating). She said they were huge and very tasty.
