I haven’t written in this for a while and I need to practice
doing so in order to be disciplined enough on the cruise to post at least every
few days.
Ray and Paula's
blog about cruising has a great list of what to do and how to act. I’d say
it was the Ten Commandments of Cruising but there are 30 of them! And number 30 is especially appropriate.
I have been spending a LOT of time on the cruise critic website, especially on
the Sun World
Cruise Roll Call which seems to be getting more active. I’m also involved
on Facebook where there are now a confusing TWO World Cruise Facebook Groups
(World Cruise and Princess Cruise 2012). I find I can’t keep the two groups
separate so I am just going to choose one, World Cruise, and ignore the other,
Princess Cruise 2012. They seem to, by and large, have the same members and do
the same thing.
It has been great fun to “meet” all the people going on “our”
cruise! Should make it so much fun to start the cruise already having some
friends.
Some of our cruise excursions are getting firmed up. A CC
member named Narelle has been organizing some and so have I so we’re kind of
set for Mumbai, Aqaba, and Petra and thinking about Salalah and Dubai. Gets
exciting when we’re already planning the excursions!
The only traveling we have done lately is to go to Phoenix
to visit Colorado friends and then on to Las Vegas for my daughter and
son-in-law’s wedding by Elvis. Ken (son-in-law) has always, always wanted to be
married by Elvis so when they planned a trip to the National Finals Rodeo they
also planned, along with their friends Sharon & Bill, to be married by
Elvis. Well, what a kick that was! They did the whole nine yards: limo, video,
photographer, and Elvis singing “Love Me Tender”—among other songs—to them! And
we got to share in the fun without having to pay for it! Icing on the cake! (My
daughter is really, really tired of hearing that we didn’t have to pay for it.
But I’m not!)

Elvis is saying, Do you promise to always be as smokin' hot as you are today? |
They always wanted their names in lights! |
Do we have a beautiful daughter, or what! |
I think Ken just got the bill. |
