Cruisecritic.com is a good place to start. It is a wondeful web site. Check out all the boards.
We will be leaving May 31 on the Monarch out of Port Canaveral. It is a 4 day cruise to the Bahamas. This is a repeat for us. This is the least expensive cruise we have found. The Royal Caribbean's Monarch is an older smaller ship, but very nice. Rooms are a little small. We like it because it is a great 4 day getaway without breaking the bank. We try to cruise out of Port Canaveral or Tampa, as it is so easy to drive there. You will have a wonderful time. We have 2 dogs, so know how hard it is to leave them. They have always done well while we have been gone.

Our neighbors across the street are interested on going on a cruise with us this coming December................time to start checking things out again.
It will be a first for them and a second for us. Western Caribbean for about 4-5 days sounds good. |

Alaskan cruise
Am considering an Alaskan cruise next year.... Any suggestions of which itinerary (ports of call), which departure city, cruise line, or experiences any Villager has had? Have never cruised before so it's somewhat confusing. What would be a good month to go? Any and all suggestions would be helpful.

cruises
We have been on over 30 cruises and hope to live long enough to do 30 more... love cruising... (guess you can tell that).... we have 3 cats so we have to find a cat sitter.... we have someone come in every other day and clean the box and make sure the food and water bowls are filled....get our mail etc... once we leave we never worry about the pets... we know they are in good hands.... We always take the seasick pill the night before we leave, and every night on the cruise... keep a full stomach (like that is hard to do) and do a lot of walking.... and of course you must sit on the deck and take a nap... we are cheap cruisers... we don't drink so that saves us a LOT of money...but we like our soft drinks and bring them with us... we try to find a port we can drive to so we don't have to fly and spend the extra money... Jacksonville is a great place to park your car and sail.... we don't go to the formal nights anymore.. but we do attend all the shows.... we bring clothes to relax... we don't go to dinning room much anymore... we like the buffet etc... we REALLY relax... whatever you do have fun.... enjoy the sea air.... totally relax and you will be back again... becareful your final bill... people get the shock of their lives the last day..... let us know how your first cruise goes.... I use cruises.com... if I find a cruise cheaper...they match it....
