Hi From Virginia - Cruise Line Fans: Cruise Reviews and Chat From Real Cruisers

queenanneitis · 06-30-2008, 06:17 PM

Hi, we're Anne (me) and Mike from Virginia. We have cruised for awhile now and have several already booked. Right now we have the Triumph as our next one in May 09 and then the Pride from Baltimore in April 2010. We just had to cancel a back to back in Nov/Dec 08 because my daughter is expectiing a baby right in the middle of those......lol. But's that's ok.

We have cabin 6434 (9A) booked on the Triumph. We were happy getting this cabin because the last couple of cruises were on Spirit class ships and we had the the aft wrap arounds but they were cate. 11's so it's great to get the same type of cabin as a 9A, save a little money and book another cruise. We're taking our little grandson with us. It'll be his first cruise and he'll be 19 months old at the time. We're thrilled to take him and have no concerns of him enjoying it. We're doing "kid friendly" things of course. We love just hanging out and enjoying the ship and our balconies so we don't feel the need to try and do everything on the capers every day. We also have a couple of good friends taking the same cruise so they've booked the other 9A, same deck so we're close.

Nice to meet you all!

Hi, Anne and Mike! Welcome to the friendliest board on the net!! You'll love it here.

Whereabouts in Virginia do you live? We're in Ashburn right near Dulles Airport.

We're looking forward to trying the Pride out of Baltimore - hope that will lead to more cruises being offered out of this area.

We took our girl on her first cruise at 23 months and it was a lot of fun for her and us, even though she was a month too young for Camp Carnival. Just takes some planning.
