Star76 Posted April 24, 2009 #1 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Hi guys! My family and I just booked our very first cruise! My husband and I have 2 children, boys aged 11(will be 12 at time of cruise) and a 6 year old who will be turning 7 while we are on the cruise!) We are going with another family who have cruised before, Its a 14 day Fiji wanderer cruise on the Pacific Sun! I was getting a bit worried about the bad reviews, so fingers crossed we have an amazing time. Im sure we will though as I really believe that its about what you make of it. So I figure that if I do as much research into the ship and the ports as I can I will be super prepared for whatever is thrown my way. On that note I wanted to say a huge thank you for all the amazing info I have found on these boards! I am warming up my printer now in preparation for the many pages of useful stuff I have found. Thanks Fee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy and Charlie's Mum Posted April 24, 2009 #2 Share Posted April 24, 2009 Enjoy your cruise Star and be prepared to be bitten by the cruise bug. Good that you have chosen a 14 day cruise, shorter ones are over in the blink of an eye. Remember, cruises are what YOU make of it. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got wonderful help, it really is very easy once you know how. I then went and googled countdown clocks and picked an appropriate one and there you have it. Go and have a look. If you can't do it let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

licra Posted April 25, 2009 #7 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Hi Star76 Finally someone else is booked on this cruise:) i thought it might be a lonley cruise. I am travelling with my husband, and 3 kids daughter(9yrs) and twin sons(7yrs). My parents are coming also making it more cost effective for us.. There has been a roll call set up for this cruise so come on over and we'll discuss the nitty gritty. I agree it will be a fantastic cruise.

Rare Kinkacruiser Posted April 25, 2009 #10 Share Posted April 25, 2009 Hi Fee, Don't you just love that rush you get after booking. Of course you'll have a wow time...good weather that time of year too (touch wood). Now you'll just have to get a notebook or open a folder to store all the tips and info. We are away 6 days after you.:D Cheers Anna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
