I'm sure you'll have a great time. Like most of us, you will get a &quot;taste&quot; of cruising and each successvie cruise you will move up a notch in quality. Wait till you have your own balcony etc. this is where it will become difficult to &quot;ever go back&quot;! <BR><BR>After many cruises, we're finally advancing from the HAL, Princess, Celebrity class (all very nice) to the brand new Radisson Voyager. One of my first cruises was on the Holiday out of Los Angeles and we had a great time as I know you will!
