About Us: We were two middle aged women getting away for a girls weekend without kids or husbands. We've both cruised a few times and know what to expect. This was our first short cruise. I wanted a short cruise for a girls relaxation trip and this was just the right length for us. We aren't single, but do enjoy having a good time, and don't mind other that like to party it up.

PRE-CRUISE: Courtyard Marriott Downtown Long Beach Free Parking, $9.00 taxi to port, Breakfast Cafe serves overpriced breakfast with very slow service. Quiznos across the street much better. Rooms are fabulous, we had the queen mary with a view of ... the queen mary. I'd definitely stay here again, very nice hotel. The Best Western is across the street, and although it has free breakfast, i wouldn't leave my car there for overnight.
