    Land Locked in Illinois!!

    Hi Everyone!
    I'm from middle American about 90 southeast of Chicago and there aren't any cruise ships close!!! I discovered cruising last year when my guy decided to plan a cruise to the Caribbean....well, that got me hook!!! That was in September..we cruised again in Feb of 2009 to the Caribbean again. In Sept of 2009 we are going to Mexican Riviera on the Splender, The Eastern Caribbean on the Dream in February 2010 and Alaska in August of 2010. He doesn't know he created a monster!!!!!!

    I love cruising, its one of the most relaxing vacations I've ever been on. I work as a tour coordinator for a motor coach company so I get to travel a lot and see some wonderful sites in this great country and never want to stop doing that but this has openned a whole new relm of tours for my guests. We are now offereing cruises thru a motor coach company!!!! So I guess I did bring to ship to the midwest after all!!!

    I really enjoy this site and have learned so much for my future cruises from the 'experts' on here...keep up the great work and help us newbies learn the ropes.

    Hey Sandy! I'm glad you have finally "officially" introduced yourself!

    You have truly been bitten by the cruise bug...there is no cure, you know. This affliction can only be treated by going on another cruise!

    Now that you have introduced yourself go get posting on the other forums. Tell us about your Carnival cruises.

    Have you started Roll Calls for your upcoming cruises? If not, go ahead...you never know who might be sailing with you.

    Welcome to CLF Sandy Make yourself at home and share your experiences with our awesome members
    Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me! I want people to know why I look this way. I've traveled a long way, and some of the roads weren't paved.

    (from a daughter of two born-and-raised Chicagoans)! If you have any questions about cruising...and any questions about the Los Angeles/Long Beach area for your upcoming cruise, just ask 'em.

    Welcome!! The only bad thing about living in Illinois, is the darn airfare to get to the cruise ship costs as much as the whole cruise
    Past cruises-Zuiderdam, Oct. 2009 / Emerald Princess, Oct. 2008 /Voyager of the Seas, Mar. 2007 /Oosterdam, Nov. 2007 /Adventure of the Seas, Mar. 2006 /Zuiderdam, Mar. 2005, /Maasdam, Mar. 2001, /Veendam, Dec. 2001, and many others
