I KNOW we've gone completely nuts, but....

[CruisinTXGal]

DH and I are looking at dates to book our next 2 cruises!! We're taking the kids in October of this year and going again just the two of us in March 2005. Did anyone else go this crazy after your first? We are doing the Elation again with the kids, because we know she's top notch, but we are thinking of the Conquest for our March cruise. Omigosh, I can't believe we are already planning our next two! It has certainly helped ease the PCD, though......

So.....who else went on your first and came back and booked another within just a few months of the first?? Please tell me I'm not alone in my craziness!!

Just got off the Victory 3/14/04. Going crazy with PCD. Last 2 times we have taken the kids so looking for the perfect couples cruise for our 10th anniversary in November.

Of course that wasn't enough for me so I managed to talk DH into giving me a 2 day to nowhere on the Victory in June as a birthday gift. Just me and a girlfriend.

I know 2 days is a tease but it should tide me over till November.(I hope )

Took my first in May 2001 and my second September 2001. Thought I was the only one who started dreaming of the next while planning the current one

 

Hopelessly addicted since day one!

If I had the means, I'd be cruising one week out of every month.

Think how nice everyone in the world would be if we all could do that!

Same thing happened to me!! I went on my first cruise in September of 2001, came home and immediately booked for April 2002, then . . . well. . . as you can see by my signature I'm still a bit nutty! I just feel awful if I don't have at least two planned!!

I think I have it worse than you. We have our cruise planned, but for May, 2005! I agree with you though, at least it helps with the PCD. We would have gone this year, however, we already booked a land based vacation (Cabo). We'll get to see her there when she comes into port. Have a great cruise!

 

Till I sail away!

Whew......This board is full of crazies!! So....are the subsequent cruises as magical as the first? Lord, I expected to come back and post a review and then not be around much after that. Now I'll need you all to get through the waiting again! Oh the sweet agony......

 

 

 

 

Randy, we will be at the meet and mingle. I'm looking forward to meeting you!

I had to stop cruising for the last 3 years to take care of mother with cancer. It was a depressing "withdrawl". Back to cruising now...back to living.

 

"Nothing should be more highly prized than the value of each day".... celebrating cruise #30 soon

[LornaT]

Not crazy at all.

Was waiting to go on my 05/02/03 Carnival Spirit Honolulu to Vancouver when I decided that a cruise for New Yeasr would be fun also, so booked my 12/27/03 Carnival Glory cruise 2 month prior to sailing the Spirit, well four months prior to sailing the Glory booked my 12/21/04 and 12/29/04 sailing on the Legend for this year, two weeks ago I booked the 04/02/2005 and 04/10/2005 sailings of the Spirit again.

Now this is crazy!

[imatarb]

Then call me crazy, too, as I've already been sort of planning another cruise about a year from now. I know that after DH returns from this one, he'll want to sail out into the sunset again and again!

 

It's his first time cruising, let alone his first vacation of his adult life. We usually take time off to visit friends and family, but this is really our first 'vacation' together.

 

He'll be hooked!

I'm with AuntieBon.....hooked since day one! I went last August (2003) with my parents and children for my first cruise! It was delightful!! As soon as I got back I was looking for a cruise to take DH on! Well, we found one this Sept 12th (our anniversary) and I counting the days!

 

CANT WAIT TO GET ON THAT SHIP!!

[camreesmom]

Our first cruise was in December 2003, our second in March and I'm busy planning two for next year (one for the whole family) and HOPING to sneak one in this October. You're not alone in this disease!!!! It's definitely contagious!

Our first cruise was in 1999. We didn't cruise again until our 25th wedding anniversary in 2002. That was the beginning of two cruises a year. Finding the cruise boards in 2001 just fed my addiction . . . and I've loved every minute of it!
