Not if you want to drink it on board. RCCL has strict no alchohol to be brought onboard policy. If you do they will hold it for you until the end of the cruise

That's more like it. :D. We've got 2 cruises booked this year. Looking now for 2010 for our 30th wedding anniversary. Suggestions Invited please for last half of 2010 but not Med or Canaries.

 

Thanks

AND with PandO you can take your own alcohol onboard. I take a winebox of white wine for cabin drinking as we sit out on the balcony in the late afternoon after a day sunbathing or enjoying a land tour. A box lasts us 2 weeks , - perfect for £16 a box for 16+ glasses so worth doing.... !

Thanks Sue,

I browsed your other picture sets, lovely pics. I was thinking of Mexico for end of 2010 for our anniversary, but it's still hurricane season.

Can you suggest anything for then that's different from the Med on PandO? Anytime between Sept and Early Dec.

Thanks

When you say 'end of 2010' when exactly are you thinking? Dec ok for Caribbean I believe, haven't done that cruise -as hubbie won't fly and the Southampton return cruise is 22-23 nights, too long for us while working - saving that one till we retire.

Others say Panama Canal cruise a great cruise too>

We were thinking Oct /Nov. But I was reading on here that the hurricanes can run through until Dec. Our anniversary is in October. So I was perhaps thinking Baltic for next year instead and to Mexico in another year early on in the year.

We want to see those old Mayan ruins before we become old ruins ourselves :D and can't clamber over them.

the wife's like your hubby about flying. Put him on a Shearings coach trip straight through to Spain. No overnight stop. We did one year and she

said she'd sooner put up with the flying.

Yes Baltic sounds good. Med getting cool by end Oct/Nov.

Sounds fun:)
