SO FRICKIN EXCITED!!!!!!

95 days for us!!! WOOO HOOOO!!   Cant wait!

Have a great week everyone!!

Hi Jayne.... always up for a party mate! Indulgence is my middle name much to Michele's chagrin. But after 25 years she still loves me - I am a lucky girl! Thanks for chiming in with your great idea - I'm keeping my options open for now. Cheers,

Thanks for the great intel, H & G. I'll look at the "Indulgences" when available. Sounds perfect. Yes, we will probably participate in the Olivia Commitment Ceremony too. Happy 35th... that's so wonderful! Thanks again for the info.

Hi Bet, we are not seasoned cruises having only been on one Olivia cruise so am not sure what all the special indulgences may be but they sound great!   What about a surpise party  with all your new friends. We could all bring  a bottle  of wine and something silver to celerbrate your 25th anniversary.

Very Happy Anniversary to the two of you.  What a great way to celebrate.

Once we get our Booking Number for the cruise....about a month ahead of time...you will be able to go into the Holland America website and look at "Indulgences".  It's everything from flowers to champagne to both and lots of other things.  They can present flowers to the cabin or at dinner on a special night.  You just have to order.  I've got my "love of my life" flowers on the two cruises we have taken and they were lovely.

The other thing you may want to make sure that you do, is to attend the Commitment Ceremony that Olivia holds on each cruise.  A chance for us to stand together, introduce our loved ones and toast each other.........as well as say some special word to each other.  it is moving and wonderful.

All the best.... H & G (it's our 35th this year )

Hi to my new friends of Olivia! My partner Michele & I will be celebrating our 25th anniversary this year and are taking this cruise to commemorate. I was only on one other cruise 14 years ago so am not familiar with the niceties that may be available. I am looking for something special that I could have either in our stateroom or presented at dinner or something, that I can arrange ahead of time to surprise Michele. She does not get into this “chat” stuff so I know whatever ends up being she won’t have gotten any idea of it from here. I appreciate any advice all you seasoned ladies to ‘cruising’ may be able to provide!
