Just booked this - our first Christmas cruise.

Anyone else going or will we have the ship to ourselves?

We will probably be joining you. We ran out of future cruise deposits so will book it whilst on our next cruise.

Lucky you David. Which deck?

Just loved our aft cabin B150 but it was probably a one off as they have put these up to a higher grade.

Just booked this cruise whilst on Oriana. The future cruise girls sold over 30 Arcadia Xmas 2015 cruises during the 24 night cruise.

The price went up considerably whilst we were on board.

At the moment we have saved over £700 each on select fare by booking in April with a saving of only £125 each on Early Saver fare.

Obviously this may change between now and Christmas

Anyone else joining us on this Xmas and New Year Cruise to the Caribbean. Only 9 weeks this weekend.

I will be retiring from work during this cruise. My last Day in the office is 16 December but officially my last day is 31st December. I will be having my Retirement Party in St Lucia celebrating on Rodney Beach., followed by a deck party in the evening and P & O are putting on a firework display and a countdown to midnight when I become a kept woman. All welcome to join us.

As it is a special occasion we have treated ourselves to one of the Aft balcony cabins on B deck. Same one as we have just cruised in. It is also my birthday whilst on board so a double celebration.

David I think you will find that B deck is higher than D deck so I would be looking down on you except that D deck is completely covered and Private so you are safe to walk out onto your balcony in the morning starkers. :shock: Just watch out for the E deckers looking up at you.

I was sitting out on E deck when the Gent above on D deck decided to dispose of the dregs of his cuppa over the back of the ship.

They flew back in the wind and missed me by inches. :o

I looked up just in time to see him legging it back inside.

I bet he was wetting himself laughing. :lol:

Next formal evening we were outside in our fineries, having a glass of champers before going to dinner when I was aware he was above.

"If you're throwing any thing tonight, can you make sure it has bubbles in it" I said :wave:
Empty vessels .. and all that

Our E tickets arrived this morning with an early embarkation time of 12:30. 5 weeks this weekend we will be off on a fabulous Sunny Caribbean Xmas Cruise on our favourite ship Arcadia.
