Thanks for the words of encouragement. I wish we were going to Cancun because we usually go there for Christmas (timeshare) and that's why we chose this particular cruise. We have some friends we want to see, and they don't have a phone and it's impossible to get ahold of them. Oh, well. Stuff happens for a reason, I guess ... we'll just have to wait and see what the reason is. But like I said, we'll be cruising, so, hey! It's our first cruise, and we're looking forward to it.
