We leave for Bermuda July 14 on the Empress of the Seas. This is the trip of a lifetime for us. My dh just retired and we wanted to do something special. A relative told us a family reunion cruise was being planned so we jumped at the opportunity. We leave July 7 for MD to visit family and see the sights. Then, 40 of us depart from Norfolk, bound for Bermuda. My dh and I, and our 10yo son, are very excited!:D

My mother-in-law and a friend of hers are going as well...and they've volunteered to help with the kids. :)

Alaska on HAL Noordam next week! My heart is pounding, and I can't sleep at night. I am hoping for a wonderfully romantic time hiking, kayaking, and checking out the big ship with my husband, but I have seasickness meds and am bracing myself for airport delays just in case. We had many flights cancelled lately on NWA around here!

My husband and I are celebrating our 25th Anniversary on our first cruise!

 

Hey - that's us too . . .well a couple of weeks after our 1st cruise it's our 25th. And a couple of weeks before the cruise it was my 50th, and while we are onboard (actually it's an excursion day) my son is 18!

 

So on the 8th August, I guess we gonna celebrate by hitting a taverna or 2 in Athens to sample the local ouzo and domestica.

My sisters & I will be on the Carnival Conquest this coming November...Montego Bay, Cayman, & Cozumel. It'll be my 28th birthday!!! We picked this one because we could drive to the port & not have to break the bank by adding airfare. :)
