Re: Vacation time:

I've never been to any of the first 3 places you mentioned, but i LOVE cruising! its all inclusive (except for drinks) and everything is done for you! OH MY GOD i can't wait for my cruise in June for our 1 year!

Royal Caribbean is an amazing cruise line, the food and entertainment is amazing and I've been on the Oasis of the Seas - INCREDIBLE!!!!its like an island onto itself.

However, personally, i can't stand the Bahamas. I think its ghetto and underwhelming. so i wouldn't go on a cruise if that was one of the ports of call, especially on a boat like the Allure/Oasis - I would wait until a better itinerary came out or travel with another Cruise line.

That's my thing. This is a trip just for me and DH. We can go to resort with baby anytime, but cruise has tons of shows and activities. I am just torn because the resorts look so romantic and relaxing. I wonder if they do anything special on the cruises for honeymooners/anniversaries? What countries did u visit when u went?
