I lived there for many many years. allen[/quote'] Allen - yes I know where Oak Ridge is. I have lived in Tennessee since I was 10. Grew up in Jackson and moved to Nashville in 79. WOW - I did not realize how long I have been in this area until I got ready to type it. I have lived in this area (mostly Smyrna & Murfreesboro) ever since. Don't count the brief moves to Oklahoma and Alabama because some guy entered my life and I followed them. :o ) I live north of Murfreesboro in Walter Hill and work in Nashville.

JXR Posted June 8, 2007 #614 Share Posted June 8, 2007 I got back early May from the Crown. The ship is beautiful, but I personally still prefer Carnival. I did not think it was worth all of the extra money. The food, I thought was better on Carnival. (IMHO). The ports were great. Especially loved St. Kitt's and Grenada. I will be doing the Destiny in November with friends that I met on CC. I cannot wait. Also booked the Imagination for Apr 21, then the Liberty for April 26. Sort of a B2B, but on 2 different ships.

WeBeCruisin' Posted June 8, 2007 #615 Share Posted June 8, 2007 Allen - yes I know where Oak Ridge is. I have lived in Tennessee since I was 10. . I moved from Oklahoma (Edmond) to Oak Ridge when I was 13 and then lived there (with the exception of three years in the army and then four years in Alaska) until I was 45. I've lived in the Carolinas since then. All three of my sons and I attended the University of Tennessee. Go, Big Orange! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mgm3430 Posted June 8, 2007 #617 Share Posted June 8, 2007 I went on my 1st solo cruise a few years ago and had a BLAST!! I asked to be seated in the dining room at a large table with other singles, I booked through carnival directly. That is what I got. I was the only woman at a table full of single men. We were the loudest and most fun table in the dining room. One of the guys from the cruise I still hang out with 4 years later. By the 2nd night we had people wanting to join "our group." I liked the fact that you could do what you want when you want and nobody to answer to. 6 of us from our dining table actually hung out together at all 3 ports and almost every night in the disco. I think by the end of the week almost the whole ship knew who we were. I would recommend you go at least once and see if it's for you. I'm going on a cruise in Dec. with 7 other women friends so I'll see how that works out with a big group. Good luck! Gwyn in Vegas:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luckysll Posted June 9, 2007 #618 Share Posted June 9, 2007 S&S5 - 2009 is currently being planned as a one-way Hawaii cruise. Stay tuned. :D Okay, I've been lurking in this thread for awhile now, but you've definitely got my attention with this info! I have traveled a lot solo - starting a lo-o-o-o-ng time ago when I traveled to Australia by myself when I was 19 (actually went to and from by ship - the P & O Orsova to and the Canberra back, so cruising and I go way back :) ) I love traveling solo and while I've also traveled with people (my Aunt and I did 2 Alaska cruises together and my sis-in-law and I did a couple of Carnival cruises to the Caribbean), I prefer being by myself just because it's so much fun to do what I want when I want (or do nothing when I want if I want). I have 3 cruises coming up - all solo. I've also really wanted to do a CC group cruise, but they never seemed to be timed to my availablity. Besides, being on the West Coast (and in Canada), it's always so much more expensive for me to do cruises from the East Coast. Love to do a Hawaii cruise. So I'll be waiting eagerly for the 2009 info! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great port set-up. 9 nights. Check it out. No, I did not do either of the Supper Clubs this time. Yeah, I saw that about the Imagination. The time wise really doesn't work for me. When you live in the frigid cold like I do, you tend to vacation during the winter months. I usually cruise in April. Not enough vacation time & $$$$ to cruise twice a year.

Moondawgie Posted June 11, 2007 #623 Share Posted June 11, 2007 I would like to hear more about the 2009 Hawaii cruise with S&S5. I like to travel solo in groups. It's truly the best of both worlds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
