Yeah, it did turn around! I did quickly realize though that maybe cruising solo isn't for me! (my next cruises are 1 with the family and another with some friends)I just read the entire report and loved it. I am so sorry you felt so alone on the cruise. I wish I had your courage to travel alone. I hope things got better quickly for you
Aww, thanks! It felt weird being upset though! First night of the cruise too!I am so sorry about dinner. I totally would have gone with you. I think you are very brave and wonderful!!!
Yeah when mom and I did a cruise we were at a table with 7 people, a mom and her adult daughters, and two solo cruisers. So I thought it would be something like that!I fully understand your feelings having to eat alone your first evening. When DW and I are on a DCL cruise without family, we always choose to have tablemates. We not only have enjoyed meeting all of them, but we have always had interesting and fun conversations with them.
It does get better! And yeah, crazy how I snuck in that cruise right before the restrictions and lockdown!I know how much you like to visit and strike up conversations with people at the parks so I’m sure you were looking forward to meeting new people at dinner!
I love your veranda wow how lucky
I hope it gets better being solo on the high seas!!
It is so fun reading about a cruise since there haven’t been any in so long!
The bus was stressful, but thankfully all worked out!I am glad you were able to sort of the bus situation! That has to be stressful at the last minute!
Love your balcony room! I am on the Dream come May, and I just got a regular balcony, but I truly cannot wait to be sitting on it! I am sorry you had a little breakdown at dinner. I can understand how you felt. It is nice to be alone, but alone alone is not fun all the time. Especially on vacation. Dinner looks amazing though! I can almost taste the pasta! I hope you were able to get moved to another table for the remainder of the trip and things got a little better.
That balcony was just wonderful! I was so very spoiled and too several naps out there!
The food is always so yummy on DCL!
