Well, I'm new here so I'll inroduce myself. My name is JoAnn and my husband Frank and I are avid cruisers. We started cruising in 1969, when I was pregnant with our first child and have been cruising ever since, with kids, with Grandparents, with friends, by ourselves - doesn't matter. Our three kids grew up on cruise vacations and its still their favorite whenever they/we can manage it.

Frank is retired 2 years now, I'm an outside cruise agent for an internet based company - been in the travel business 28 years. We have three married kids, and three granddaughers, and still counting.

We try to cruise about twice a year, problem is so many cruises and so little time/money. We did our first Radisson last year on the Mariner to the Panama Canal, one of our dream cruises. We met ChatKatR (Kathy) and Frank, and had so much fun with them we planned another cruise together, going Sept on the Navigator. We've cruised just about every line and some that don't exist any longer. Haven't met a cruise ship yet we didn't like, but obviously some more than others.
