Cruise

[stephenl]

Just booked a 3-night Carnival cruise to the Bahamas. It's relatively inexpensive, and it will be warm, and it's not something we've ever done together. All our vacations are to shitty-weather places like Glasgow and Iceland (Iceland was pretty nice, actually, but it sounds like it would be cold.) So will we be the only people on the ship our age,

[stephenl]

Plus, this journalist got shot in Tulum the day we were googling it.

Oh wow... hadn't heard that... Crazy. The town was so quiet and peaceful. Have fun on your cruise.. I've actually never been on one.. so would love to hear how it goes.. :)

That sounds like it's going to be equal parts relaxing and hilarious, and now I wanna do it.

See, that's the right attitude. Holly, you could learn a lot about attitudes towards cruising from Manning.

Relaxing and hilarious is exactly what we're thinking

Aww Glasgows not that bad!! It is very cold though, lots of snow!

Warm weather would be nice, have fun!! xx

You know I love Glasgow, but the weather is, as you people say, shite. Plus apparently the winter I was there was the rainiest on record. Which is really, really rainy.

When are you going? I'm going on my First Cruise Ever in March. I think it will be funny to use a pool...in the middle of the ocean.

[stephenl]

We're going in two weeks. We're really looking forward to the warmth.

We will report back with lots of cruise tips. Where is your cruise going, Mickie? (p.s. Happy New Year)

Bahamas
