Merion_Mom Posted August 17, 2004 #2 Share Posted August 17, 2004 willie: Welcome to the boards, and I am sure that you will love your first cruise. Let me teach you about the *search function.* In the blue bar across the top of your screen, you will see ten topics. The eighth one says "search" - click on it. I suggest using "advanced search". Type into the "Key word(s)" box the word or phrase you want to know about: the name of a ship, a phrase describing an activity or excursion, or whatever. Below that space, there are different areas of the Cruise Critic boards. If you only want to find the answers to your questions on the Royal Caribbean board, only highlight that one. Then click on "search now" at the bottom. Happy hunting! Carol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
