I keep stuff from every cruise. That is the only way I would remember the itineraries and cruises with the number piling up. Matter of fact I am going to have to throw some of the stuff out since because with 20 cruises it is too much stuff. I got all the cruise dailys from every cruise. I remember the ship of my first cruise and that it was a southern itinerary but I don't recall the exact itinerary but I could look it up. Thus I don't need a hypnotist to recall itinerary changes cause I kept the dailies, but then is it really important to remember all that or that we might have arrived a few hours late? I'll probably toss them soon and just keep the cruise documents and a few things. -- Charles |

That is part of the reason that I am talking about memories..I, just as you, have all the cruise dailies, ship photo postcards, final shipboard account bill, menus, even bag tags and plastic ship board cards when they started giving those..Talk about a pack rat! We have been shredding some of the airline reservations, tickets and parts of the cruise ship document books with our names on them..just so much room to be had! Only have done four cruise folders so far and probably should go through them again and remove some more things! We have all those photo albums *clogging* up space and photos that we have not even put in albums to take care of, yet! Now with a digital camera, I am putting all photos taken on discs and then backing them up in case of a computer crash! ;-) So what was the name of your first cruise ship? Glad you don't need a hypnotist to remember..LOL! --Jean |

Our first was in 1995 also. It was a really big 4-day from LA to Catalina
to Ensenada and back The ship was the Viking Serenade. We have been working at it the last 4 years and are up to 27 cruises. We just got back from an Alaska cruise on the Coral Princess where we were "Elite" for the first time. We did back-to-back cruises and the first week we were the only Elite on the ship so we were treated really special. Don "Jean O'Boyle" wrote in message m...

The only things we have from our 14 cruises is lots of good memories and a ton of pictures. Do you remember your first cruise and itinerary? Ours was the Regal Princess..October 14-21, 1995 How could anyone forget their first cruise? Ours was on the sister to your first ship. We sailed on the original Crown princess, Eastern Carib from 10/19 - 10/26/91. We went to San Juan(as a port), St. Thomas and we were supposed to stop at Princess Cay. Since it wasn't ready yet, we spent the day in Nassau. I am not sure if those were the only ports on that cruise. Got a late start, but have made up for it with 30 cruises since! You started 4 years later then us and have gone on double the amount of cruises that we have been on. Watch out and give us a little time and we will catch up with you(grin). sue |

First cruise was on Sitmar "Starward" in 1977. Got hooked, of course. After
that it was years of Princess until they got too big and penny-pinching. Now it's Silversea and Silversea ONLY. This after 150 + cruises. "Jean O'Boyle" wrote in message m...

I always thought that the old Pacific Princess was the original *Love Boat.* Am I wrong? Just wondered because we took her twice before she left the Bermuda itinerary and the fleet for good and believed that to be true. Also does the Kentavros still exist? Wonder if she might be still around sailing between islands in Greece. --Jean |

Jean, the two ships were sister ships, but I am pretty sure that the Pacific Princess was the original Love Boat. So much of the publicity towards the end, said it was the Love Boat and I have a picture of me and Kevin on the famous Love Boat staircase, they better no of been lying to us(grin). sue |
