After the reviews by Denise, Pat and Priscilla there is really not much to add! All in all it was a great cruise that, as usual, went too fast. It'll be difficult to do a 7 days cruise again! ( although we are booked for a 7 days Mariner Alaska ).

Some other highlights were:

- Atrium dance party (unfortunately too short. They were afraid of keeping some of the
passengers awake)
- Skinny fries (Thanks Pat for introducing us to this "delicacy")
- The guitar of Frankie "Dahling" Holiday
- Being able to dance to the song "Shout" twice on the same cruise!!
- Attending line dance classes

Regrets:

- Not taking the Lanzarote/ camel ride excursion
- Not playing at Kathy's black jack table
- Not learning how to play pooch ( Peggy, what happened??? )
- Not having my picture taken with Captain Hanssen the night we had dinner with him ( my mom is upset about that)
- not being properly dressed for the "Block Party". I was somehow misinformed that this was a "come as you are" kind of event. So, at the sound of the bell, I came out of my cabin wearing my robe. To my surprise , everybody was wearing their formal wear for the evening!! I quicky retreated to the safety of my cabin.
- Not finding the right size (ie. diameter) pole to do some serious pole dancing.
Editing to add:
- Not going to the espadrilles store in Barcelona

Like Pat, I looooved the westbound crossing. Gaining an hour every day or two was way cool. Going eastbound cuts down on the hours of fun.

I'm now signed up for the 2012 Westbound Crossing . It doesn't matter what the ports are or where it leaves from. I know it sounds distant, but I notice some people are already talking about cruises they want to do in 2010, so 2012 is not that far behind. I hope that most, if not all of the CROSSERs will join us in this alumni reunion and that we will have more LCTers join us!
