The day after my last post I left for a 9 day cruise. Had a great time. There was special entertainment of groups from the late 50's and early 60's. Were nice enough to pose for me and my date. If any of you would like to see them send me a facebook friend request they are on my wall. I know Joan has seen them.

Pegleg:
Well, if you are looking for an Alaska cruise the time is not now. You will have to wait till Spring has sprung, at least. I went up there September 1st and that was almost the last cruise of the season.
Since you are in California, you might sail out of Long Beach (I went out of Seattle)
I have been on Norwegian and Carnival and have plans for Princess and Royal Caribbean. Most of my cruising done from Miami, though other ports in Florida have their pluses or minuses for me anyway.
If you were doing something immediate, you would be going Mexican Riviera, Hawaii, or Panama Canal (Partial transit or Full). You might be able to find something cheap right away as the 1st week of December is usually the least expensive and the 1st couple weeks of January (after New Years) is also less bucks.
Open to give my 2 cents advice whenever.
Brian

Pegleg I was on Royal Caribbean and have another booked for March 2020. The 1st thing if I were you select where you want to go select cruise line and ships. Go on line check out the ships layout to be familiar with how to get around ships are much larger with more guests. I thinks cruises are great it's your hotel, restaurant and entertainment. Do research for bargains they are out there. For and my girl friend we have going on specialty cruises extra entertainment of singers and groups from the 50's and early 60's which cost extra plus we see the regular ships entertainment
