Mara, we're planning a Caribbean cruise in July. It'll be my fifth. I love cruising. Have you been before? Which line will you be on? Which ship? Which ports of call?
I've been on Celebrity Century three times (eastern and western Caribbean) and on the Zenith once (Bermuda). We have a huge group planned for next year, including a bunch o' teenagers, so we might have to do Carnival, which is cheaper. We haven't booked yet, as money is tight so the trip isn't 100 percent certain yet. I'm so excited for you! If you're a cruise newbie and have questions, I'd be happy to answer them for you.
