We are very happy cruisers now after accepting a very nice "upsell" to a verandah cabin identical to the cabin we were very pleased with on our recent AK cruise. Much more room than our ocean-view and a verandah that will be useful sometimes on this warm-weather world cruise. (An upsell is when the cruise company juggles rooms around and finds that they can offer higher category cabins to those already booked on the cruise for a reasonable additional payment...that's all relative to each person. We decided to go for it.). Chris loves having a full size couch and I love the larger desk with 9 drawers! (The cabin we were booked in had only 3.). Perfect...except that in rough weather, I'll probably have to take my Meclizine...more movement up on the higher decks and I can get seasick sometimes.
Otherwise, we continue to prepare...had our Yellow Fever vaccinations (both of us did have more reaction to it than any other vaccination, but we are now done!) Luggage delivery has been arranged for mid-December by Fedex (they'll ship 4 bags free...next time we see them will be in our cabin!...we hope!). Two large plastic bins are accumulating "stuff" that I know I want to pack...desk items, books, hangers, Command Strip hangers, binoculars, flashlights, batteries, etc.
(If you go back to the photo of the ship, our "new" cabin is located above the middle of the 4th lifeboat that you see.)
