Thanks for the info, rookiegirl. I spoke to peleroja yesterday about her disasterous cruise. It was supposed to be for 15 days.
Her cruise line put all 15 boxes into her room. She was single and put the boxes on the other bed so it wasn't so bad, but I'm married
and need all the bed space.  Once I decide if we are cruising I will contact the representatives.

C'mon Steve, you mean you can't share on a nice romantic cruise.  My husband and I slept together in a single bed for the first three years of life together.  That was 38 years ago.  We don't like each other nearly as much now so we have a double.  Anyone gets sick, he has to find another bed somewhere else in the house.   :rofl;

O Monrein, I don't call myself BigSteve for the size of my brain obviously. I'm 6'4" and currently
about 250 give or take 3 liters of Dianeal. I've tried sleeping with my wife on a twin bed, but when
you must turn in unison I don't get much sleep.  We have been married for 34 years and have always had
a king bed.
