My wife hinted whilst we were in Italy that I ought to upgrade my camera, and replace hers with my old one.

I now have an up to date camera, which take smashing pictures.

Details have been finalised, e tickets number issued, enabled us to look up aircraft seating, and choose our required seats. We have free flights, free spa treatment, conducted tour of LA. Pick up at airport to hotel, and they are even sending a car to Queen Mary for our return. One small point, we have had a generous cheque, for spending money. Very generous.

Completed our NCL pre-registration form for both our two cruises.

Just had an email from NCL highlighting the shore excursions of our Mexican Riviera Cruise. Just waiting for the tickets, as we have already booked a shore excursion for Acapulco.

We have also just been informed a part of our prize is a Cabana Massage, which lasts for 50 minutes. Please explain to a ignorant individual what a Cabana Massage is.

Well usually, it's a massage in an open sided tent like structure on a beach (Cabana), often full body massage. However, they can be done in the spa on the ship too by one of the pools, if I am thinking of the same thing.....should be a lovely experience though Norman

Its in the open air on top of our LA Hotel.

We have paid for the cruise and stay on Queen Mary, the prize includes,Air travel, transfers, hotel (4 night),spa and LA tour. We were lucky they extended the flight time home so we could accommodate our own itinary.
