What cruise-related items did Santa bring you???

Ok...anyone get any cool cruise stuff for Christmas???

Me...well sure. I got a new digital camera. (so did my wife) I like the tiny ones I can carry in my pocket...that have good optical zooms. Santa was supposed to bring me a new Netbook...but he must be still building it!

What'd you get???

On the first day of Christmas, Santa brought to me:

One digital camera...

I got new luggage. (...and the week before Christmas I received cruise docs)

nada, zilch, zip, nuttin' honey.

Cool. The thing that sux about new luggage is...
It only looks new the first time you carry it to the airport! After that...it's all banged up!

I hope it's HOT PINK or something! I love luggage that MAKES A STATEMENT...and it's easy to find in a sea of suitcases.

Susan...maybe you missed the coal in your stocking!
Maybe you spent too much galavanting around the world this year!

i got an ipod touch and i have been downloading audio books which i swear i'm not listening to until my vacation in february. it is just about the only time i get to read so now i don't have to fight the sun and i can just listen. and it has games and stuff to entertain me on the christmas cruise cold days.

i have purple luggage and since i can't stand to fly i mostly just cruise out of philly, bayonne and ny so they can't mess my luggage up. of course, for you pete, it's a little harder to find a cruise port in ND

i got a mp3 player so i don't have to lug my vintage cd player with, i love taking it with and sitting out watching the waves listening to enya and drinking a foofoo drink, just relaxing and falling asleep, can't wait till feb to do that

Sorry, not Hot Pink but it is a VIBRANT PURPLE.

What a coincidence! I also hate to fly and my new purple luggage I will use for cruising as carry ons.

Have a fantastic cruise! I'll be cruising a few days after you, but on the RC Navigator.

Thanks..it will be our first cruise without kids....I'm missing them already. I've never been on such a new ship...the Ruby..I'm looking forward to it. I need to get going on shore excursions though...none booked yet. Hope we have good weather in the western carribean

It's not rain Penny..."it's liquid sunshine mon!"

We cruised Navigator OTS...loved it!
We had the aft corner balcony...you could fit a dozen people on it! You could look out the big round hole down the side or stare out at the wake....heaven. I have loads of pics on Webshots. They've had about 70,000 views.....

My DH snuck into the giftshop on NCL Dawn (first week of Dec. while we were cruising) and picked up a DAWN Christmas Ornament. I thought that was very thoughtful of him! :-)

Pete,

How did you know the color of my luggage? I can always find it in a sea of bags. Don's is a much more conservative khaki green but it's usually right next to my beacon of hot pink.

mine are.....black.

Hey...I have a corner aft cabin! 7388. This will be my first time in an aft cabin and I am looking forward to it.

We had cabin 7688...and it was sweeeeeet!

Love those aft cabins, definately worth the walk.

Nancy I didn't know you got the Aft for your next sailing! Congrats!

We got it for Indy too. So we'll both have to compare notes when we get back.

As far as Pete's question, my hubby got me a RCCL gift certificate for OBC. It says something like "Get yourself a massage and take care of yourself because you always take care of us"

Michele, That was sweet of your husband...mom's always take care of others first. Wish my husband would see that sometime

It's only taken 11 years and countless threats for him to see the light.

Hey...we men are sometimes......ah....sloooooow.
Just not me!
