Imagination Review Four Day 6/17 - 6/21, 2004

Background

When my husband and I returned from our Honeymoon with stars in our eyes back in 2003 we thought it would be a great idea to plan a family cruise. Originally it was going to be his family and my family, but it got too complicated to try to coordinate schedules and we decided just to make it his family. The planning process was still difficult...we wanted to go in a less expensive time of the year but several members of his family wanted to go in June. We also did not want to go out of Miami so that we could possibly drive but we lost out on that also. So we sucked it up and spent about $700 pp between the cruise, flight and transfers knowing that we might never be able to pull this off again or it wouldn't be for a long time down the road. So the cruise consisted of myself, my husband, his best friend, his parents, his two brother and their wives, her sister and her husband and six of our nephews ranging from two to fifteen years old. Yes, I know I am a cool wife to let my husband's best friend go (and stay in our cabin) and travel with ALL my in-laws! Read more
