Lack of care

SO excited and cannot hardly wait! My husband is self-employed (mobile mechanic) and he says he is having to "flog" himself to get his work done! It is sugarbeet harvest here in Wyoming so he is keeping a bunch of older-than-the-hills trucks running for the farmers for one more year (some of these trucks are 4 trucks taken apart and put together to make one truck!) I got a new digital camcorder and have been practicing up! We have been to Europe before but never for this length of time. Unfortunately, the dollar is so bad it's taking a beating. Travel sites are warning about exchanging your dollars for Euros and no place in Rome will take dollars anymore. It is VERY expensive using taxis or shuttles. The train is fairly cheap but when you have a lot of luggage it is not very convenient (lots of bums and panhandlers too.) Train is safe and fast but not for everyone. I got an email yesterday that there are still unsold rooms on a 12 day coming from Barcelona to Florida and an interior room was 399.00! It was around Thanksgiving but I think you missed the big travel rush dates. Vacationstogo.com always has last minute unsold cruises. Mary

Princess are fine untill there is a problem then their "Escape completly" goes out the window and you are left to fend for yourself and pick up the tab. Then, if you complain, they let you know the small print gives them the right to change more or less anything they like and you that can in effect get lost. We will never travel with them again as we have lost all faith in them.

Hmmm. Princess doesn’t seem very fair at all. But not all cruise lines are like that, I LOVE the disney cruises and I have heard that Carnival and Norwegian Cruise lines are very good too. (we have some reviews on the site) I will definetly not take a Princess Cruise.

Wow, it is interesting to hear some of the poor ways that some cruise lines treat passengers. Given the large cost of many cruises, you would expect them to go above and beyond the call of duty to fix any problems.
