I just got back last evening from a 7-day western Caribbean cruise with another member of this great group. Both of us have found other cruisemates here in the past, so we pretty well knew how to handle it. She had warned me in advance that she both smoked and snored, and liked water excursions, while I'm slightly allergic to seawater. Anyhow, we hit it off better than I had expected, and had a very good time. YAY cruisemates!
