No smoking vacation!

[beacon]

I am so happy to be going on a long vacation without several cartons of cigs stuffed in my luggage and the anxiety building that I would not be able to smoke for 14 hours.

 

All of the inside of the Celebrity ship are nonsmoking, including the casino.

 

So, unlike in the past, I will not have to find the few smoking areas on certain decks of the ship. Also, I will not need to smoke on the excusions to the pristine wilderness and ground my butts into ground furtively. I won't have to worry that I did not put my cig out and the ship will burn down. I will not almost fall over the side while smoking on a very windy deck after a long night of festivities. :0

 

Last year at this time I was also on vacation with a few months quit. I had a good time but I was still very cranky and craving some. This year no craves, no desires but I am wondering how it will be to gamble without smoking, to sit on the deck and watch the scenery without smoking, to drink cocktails in the icebar without smoking. What a difference a year makes as far feeling so much better!

I'm sure it will be a great release not to have to 'slip away' for a smoke.

Fab Beacon, soo jealous, no bother to you, just make sure while gambling you have cocktails and some nibbles constantly,

I worked on Celebrity cruise Mercury (I hear them and galaxy are no longer part of celebrity as they were bought by a Germany company) but I would give anything to go back on it or any celebrity ship as a passenger for a change, please take lots of pics so I can remensce (sp?) and get all emotional and choked with happy memories,

You'll have the bestest time ever you lucky duck xxxx

I sometime imagine that I go to South Africa. No electricity, no wifi, living in a hut, original life it is. Dwelling in such condition, I think I can quit all my bad habits.
