Well today is the day.  And I got upgraded!! To a balcony from an oceanview!  Nine o'clock last night.  I drive to the Port of Miami and meet up with my friends.  Eight days of wonder on the beautiful Carnival Breeze.  I have to tell you it really was harder to pack for myself instead of for Sarge and me.  I had that down pat and now it's just me going and I sort of feel lost.  But I am going forward and not looking back other than for the wonderful memories when I want to let them envelop me. (And no, not envelopE me, ha!)

Yesterday I have to tell you about the pool.  It was really hard but I did do a bit over my hour.  It was so windy it was like trying to go upstream and then when I went the other way it shot me across the pool.  It was lots of fun but tired me out quite a lot.

Then I came up and got my shower and headed out to do some last minute errands.  I went to Target to pick up some wine for the cruise and you can tell I don't buy much liquor because I got carded and laughed so hard.  I guess they do that now for everyone?  Anyway it was quite funny to me.  I showed them my Medicare card when they wanted the ID!!  

So come along with me on this newest adventure and hopefully we'll both have some fun!

  5. Nothing beats a balcony. Nothing. Doubt I'll ever go on a cruise ship again, but I can go along with the rest of you and that's good enough for me.

    Have a fabulous cruise honey. Big hugs to you and my best to Roche. :)

  7. Congrats on the balcony upgrade. In 15 cruises we were only upgraded once, from an ocean view to a balcony on Diamond Princess. I got the call a month before and both our cabin and that of the couple traveling with us were upgraded. It was their first cruise ever and I kept the secret from them. The look on Kay's face when she opened their cabin door and saw the balcony was worth keeping the secret. Of course the upgrade spoiled her and now she will only cruise in a balcony, lol. Maybe that was the cruise line's plan all along!

  12. You're allowed to take your own alcohol on board???? When we went on a cruise it was forbidden.
