I forgot to mention the taxi ride, as was mentioned in a prior post; for four of us, riding together from our two homes in The Villages it cost $25 for the taxi for our early morning 5 AM transport from our homes to the bus pickup location - at MacDonald's on 441 - on the day of departure for the cruise. (And, for some reason, it cost $40 for the same taxi ride for the four of us to be picked up from the bus dropoff and taken to our two homes upon return from the cruise).

So, that is added expense to be factored in (unless you have a friend who is an energetic early riser for the departure and who is okay with being on call during dinner time for the return).
