I was looking at our itinerary for our upcoming Auckland-LA cruise, and I noticed that we seem to have two formal nights in a row, when we cross the international date line. I thought that was kind of odd. Is that some sort of tradition, that when you repeat a day because you're crossing the international date line, you have formal nights both nights?
I do think it's cool that we'll be experiencing Sat, Dec. 2 twice! But as much as I love formal nights, two in a row seems a little much. Over this 19-day cruise we have four formal dinners and six informal dinners! That's a lotta dressy clothes to bring!

LeeAnne-
I think I have the answer to your question on the TWO December 2nd Formal Nights! My wife and I were on last year's cruise and I wondered about the same thing! Well, thank goodness there was only ONE formal night on the Crossing the International Dateline Day! I think the second night was casual. By the way, you will love the cruise - beautiful and relaxing! In fact, we loved it so much that we are going again this year!
The only bad part of this cruise is that my wife has her birthday on December 2nd! Since there will be two December 2nds, she may age quicker than she wants!!!

I'm on this year's Auckland to Los Angeles cruise also. I wonder how many other LCT folks will be on it.

I'm looking forward to LOTS of seamail from all of you since I'm doing this cruise next year.

Hi Cebone and Jbittle! Nice to meetcha! We should make a point of meeting on board. I'm pretty excited too! I've signed up for the Cordon Bleu class, as well as a bunch of scuba dives. I'm traveling with my Mom.

Funny Masaki - I thought about Jack and his pretty wife when the "we were young once" thread was reactivated - Hi Jack!!!
