Re: Cruise info??
Thanks! I have heard that Carnival is a great party cruise and Royal Carribean has the nicest boats. I am confused! Shopping sounds good, which parts of the Western Carribean are nice? I will definitely book through the internet as well.

Re: Cruise info??
I went on two! I went on Carnival to Cozumel, Ocho Rios, and Grand Caymen. We had a lot of fun! I also went on Costa cruise line to San Juan, Dominican Republic, St. Thomas and Bahamas. The Costa cruise had better islands but the carnival cruise was a lot more of a fun ship. The costa ship was more relaxing.

Re: Cruise info??
I went on 2 Royal Caribbean cruises. The southern caribbean cruise was on Adventure of the Seas. It left from Puerto Rico and went to: Aruba, Curacao, St. Thomas, St. Maarten.
The other cruise was on Majesty of the Seas. It left from Fla., and went to: Bahamas, Jamacia, Cayman Islands, and Cozumel.
I had a blast, and would luv to go on the Mediteranian cruise.

Re: Cruise info??
My family traveled a lot and so I was lucky as they never went without me so I have been on 11 (my second part of my honeymoon will be 12) we would do two trips one cruise and other Europe or Hawaii or California etc. when my parents discovered cruising
-1 Mediterranean Royal Olympic (at time it was top cruise line sailing there before all the major lines started going there regularly)
Caribbean -1 Norwegian cruise line -8 Celebrity cruises
I have cruises 3 times before - so far with so many discount cruise agencies i prefer Sterling Cruises www.cruiserewards.com They really are helpful unlike the ones that can't afford to help because of the cheap rates. cheapest is not always best.

We also went on many cruises. Once a year. Carnival was my least favorite. It had a different atmosphere then Princess and Royal Carribean. I love the Cozumel, Grand Cayman, etc. cruise the best. JMO, there is more to do on these islands other then shopping.

Re: Cruise info??
My first cruise was with my parents on Royal Carribbean to Bermuda.
Royal Caribbean is great because they have a lot of great activities on the ship and the shows are wonderful!
My second cruise was my HM trip with my DH to Hawaii on the Princess Cruise. The activities and the shows are good but not as good as Royal Caribbean. The food there was better.
I heard that there is this cruise that goes to the Caribbean that leaves out of NYC from Norweigan. Has anyone gone on that? That sounds good. I never been on one of their ships.
The caribbean locations are great and you can relax on the beach, go shopping and explore some sights. It's relaxing and you get to see several different islands on one ship.

I wanted to add, I also heard about Cruise Critic through an acquaintance I met on a cruise and she raved about it. It has deals and the scoop about all the boats.

Re: Cruise info??
went on the Costa cruise line to eastern Carribean. very nice. as someone mentioned, it is on the relaxed side and a bit more of an older crowd
