Rare morpheusofthesea Posted December 29, 2023 #2 Share Posted December 29, 2023 The pleasure of expecting enjoyment is often greater than that of obtaining it. And the completion of almost every wish is found a disappointment." Dr. Samuel Johnson What else can explain every second post on social media expounding excitement and count-downs and later very few positive reviews. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Oceansaway17 Posted December 29, 2023 #3 Share Posted December 29, 2023 it's all about the journey which can be days or weeks. then in 1 day poof all done. But as of this writing, we still have new Years to look forward to, then Valentines, then Easter as well as tax season. Cycle of life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KINGBOBOFTHENORTH Posted December 30, 2023 #4 Share Posted December 30, 2023 On the day of embarkation, we all can't wait to get ON. On the final morning of the cruise, we all can't wait to get OFF! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But on the final morning of a cruise, it's inevitable that we're leaving the ship so I'm not hanging around. I will be in the Self-Disembark queue, one of the first off in order to get through Immigration before the lines get long, to get to the parking garage before the lines gets long, to get to a taxi to the airport before the lines get long. I have no desire to be sitting in a lounge somewhere waiting for my number to be called. If you like that, great. But I don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Two Wheels Only Posted December 30, 2023 #8 Share Posted December 30, 2023 It isn't really over if you remember the great moments that you had and/or the great people that you met. Photos, videos, souvenirs, etc. help. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
