Seven_Of_Nine Posted July 25, 2006 #26 Share Posted July 25, 2006 The destinations on the cruise we are planning to go on are the main motivator. I have always wanted to go to Pompeii and while climing Vesuvius is one of my goals I will not be able to do both in one day. Also going back to Corsica is a dream come true. I had a moment of utter peace while there and have always longed to go back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tennisobo Posted July 25, 2006 #34 Share Posted July 25, 2006 After having 2 outsides and one inside, I'm looking forward to our first balcony...C748 on Diamond....one of those aft balconies I've read so much about. Also: Reading and relaxing on my balcony. I don't have to answer the phone. Relax, relax, relax. Watching the water. Seeing some whales? I just love to cruise.

LILynn Posted July 25, 2006 #36 Share Posted July 25, 2006 Hmmmm.... I am on the Grand Princess going to Europe for the first time on 9/1/06. I am looking forward to seeing Italy and Greece, practicing my really bad Italian, seeing all the historical sights, meeting new people on the ship, not having to work for 2 1/2 weeks (this is the first time I am taking off more than 1 week in a row), not having to cook or clean, being on a beautiful ship and spending time with my mom. Sadly, my husband can't go so the bad part is missing him terribly. Lynn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mseldga Posted July 25, 2006 #39 Share Posted July 25, 2006 Everything everyone has already said, with an emphasis on RELAXING. But this particular cruise (CB 8/12) will be my husband's first cruise, our tenth wedding anniversary, and our first vacation of longer than a weekend without our kids in 6 years. So, what I'm really looking forward to is just sharing the experience with him and having that kind of intense togetherness we haven't had in a really long time. Also hoping to get him addicted to cruising!;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kendon Posted July 26, 2006 #41 Share Posted July 26, 2006 One of the things that I look forward to most is meeting new people at dinner. We have anytime dining and always request to be seated at the largest table for that purpose. After twelve cruises and many dinners, we have only had one bad experience with our table mates. How many times we've missed the shows because conversation was so great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryPoppinz Posted July 26, 2006 #42 Share Posted July 26, 2006 I love cruising. I LOVE the sea air and walking on the promenade deck- looking out at the sapphire blue sea- that's my favorite part! Really, I just love it all, frankly!!:p Me, too. Cruising is all about the sea for me, which is one of the reasons I love cruising tothe Caribbean. The colors of the sea are spectacular and it's relaxing for me. I really feel like I'm on vacation when I'm near the sea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCManders99 Posted July 29, 2006 #43 Share Posted July 29, 2006 My next Cruise is in April Star Princess. I am looking forward to: The food!!!! DH and I have completely opposite schedules so my dinners consist of hamburgers, hot dogs, chicken nuggets, pizza rolls, maybe I'll splurge and throw a steak on the grill. Also, I can't cook, grilling I can do nothing fancy though. So I love to try all the great foods on the ship. I've never been to the caribbean yet, so seeing that is cool to.
