Josie201 Posted April 2, 2021 #1 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Over many years of cruising I’ve come to take some things for granted. When I get back to cruising here’s a start of what I won’t ever take for granted again. Sailaways. Sunsets on the ocean. Wonderful meals in lovely settings. Not all perfect. But pretty damn good. Anyone else? 12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HskrCrsr Posted April 2, 2021 #2 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Your last one captures my most anticipated activities: - Breakfast on the veranda - Long dinners with a window table at Blu And I will add - seeing new places before, during and after the cruise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruising is my passion Posted April 2, 2021 #4 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Just the joy of being on a Celebrity ship with my husband....the familiar face of a crew or staff member. My passion for being on a ship re-ignited. My needs are few when it comes to cruising. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glendakayself Posted April 2, 2021 #5 Share Posted April 2, 2021 The excitement of anticipation. The relaxation of getting away and having needs met by the crew. Meeting new people and seeing new places. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spif Barwunkel Posted April 2, 2021 #7 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Don't take for granted the consideration and respect for someone else's space. At first there will be a vulnerability to the new nexus between passengers in confined spaces. Understand the importance of just how much we are all dependent on one another. Enjoy your cruise to the fullest and make it easy for everyone else to enjoy theirs. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Boston Posted April 3, 2021 #13 Share Posted April 3, 2021 The anticipation and pre-cruise planning, the excitement of boarding day and all of the leisurely pursuits of the days that follow. I think that even the day that I dread, returning home will have a special meaning, the first time only of course! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zook50 Posted April 3, 2021 #14 Share Posted April 3, 2021 The challenge and anticipation in planning our next cruise and land vacation... The excitement of stepping onto the ship the first day... The smiles of the wonderful Celebrity staff members and the special treat of seeing a favourite bartender or chef from a past trip... The realization that I don't need to worry about planning a meal or cleaning up for weeks😉... That first delicious evening drink (and an occasional cigar for my husband) at the Sunset Bar, with the beautiful warm ocean breeze ruffling my hair... The new ports, whether a busy day sightseeing or a simple stroll into town for coffee or lunch... The return to our favourite faraway countries and cultures, with new foods, languages, architecture, art, and music... The fantastic people we meet from all over the world... We will never take travel of any kind for granted again. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louhut1 Posted April 3, 2021 #15 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Looking forward to all the above and am really enjoying a positive topic. We just love being at sea. It’s mesmerizing. We live in the desert so really enjoy our cruises. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tudy Posted April 3, 2021 #18 Share Posted April 3, 2021 AH! Taking that first deep breath of sea air snd feeling all the everyday cares roll off my shoulders That first glass of champagne. Feeling like royalty as we are greeted by the crew. Finding that one special bartender with whom we are going to bond for the rest of the cruise. Meeting our waitstaff and table mates at dinner Walking on deck after a rain shower. Leaning over the rail of our balcony to be mesmerized by the wake. Live music. I think I might actually cry for joy when I can get on a cruise ship again. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
