it's a Breeze

Or rather, the Carnival Breeze. We are booking an 8 day cruise for August in lieu of our February cruise.

new cruise

Finally coming to terms with the idea that we have to cancel our February cruise. Our friends who booked with us are going to pull their son out of school and go anyhow, but we can't... ...so we're strating to think about a cruise for next summer.

Another Sandy casualty

My significant other is a high school teacher. Between Sandy and the nor'easter they've lost 2 weeks of school. He just got a robocall announcing that midwinter recess in February has been cancelled so the school can make up some of those days.

We have a cruise scheduled for February break.

Even if he could fudge it and use sick time . . .he's going to use all his sick time recuperating from his upcoming surgery . . .

So our cruise has become another victim of Sandy.

Though part of me is grateful that this is the worst of our Sandy damage, I was really looking forward to this cruise (my birthday dinner in the Liberty steakhouse!) and can't help feeling angry and upset.
