dothow - welcome to the daily dock.   We love to have new members join us in our daily chat.    <br /><br />You should definately cruise from Baltimore.   We have done it quite a few times and it is very easy and organized.    The Inner Harbor is a great place to spend a pre or post day cruise and only a few minutes from the pier.    <br /><br />Living in Pa. it is a very easy drive for us.   Our next cruise is 12/8 from Miami so that will be a bit of a drive but being retired (or DH being semi-retired) we have plenty of time and won&#39;t have to rush.   <br /><br />Robert - I figured you were busy catching up.   Drop by when you can.<br /><br />
