Watch out The Carribean - The Q is coming!

After our first cruise experience with Disney, we were hooked. It was nice to be able to just enjoy a vacation without having to plan so much about what to eat and what to do. Well, we did have to plan a bit but not as extensive. Plus the idea of knowing exactly how much we will be spending for a vacation is a new concept for us. As we always ended up with more than we anticipate. So cruising seems to be a good vacation choice for us.

And since we are not going back to Thailand this year, we started looking for an affordable and fun vacation. We decided on at least 7 days cruise to anywhere that we have never been before. So the choices are down to somewhere in the Carribean. The bahamas cruise is out since we have been there twice already. Next we looked at port that we can drive there without flying. Even with that we still have a lot of choices. After that it comes down to price. We decide to go with Carnival as it's the cheapest for all the family oriented cruise. We know that it probably won't be able to compare to Disney but as long as we don't set too high expectation and just enjoy our vacation we should be ok. We are pretty laid back people anyway.

So after looking and checking several days I found a really good deal during the promotion that Carnival gave. Free 6 level upgrades for the same price of Guarantee Stateroom. I kept going back and fort and didn't make any decision till it's too late. By the time I decided to book, the promotion had ended! Another lesson learn here, if you find good deal, go for it!!!

After beating myself up on my incisive decision, I booked the cruise. So Carnival here we come.

We will be sailing on Carnival Victory 7 days - Western Carribean. The ports will include Cozumel (Mexico), Grand Cayman (Cayman Island), and Orcho Rios (Jamaica).

Well, I have 136 days left till we set sail so I have a lot of planning to do for each port. Will keep you post!
