What can I say? I could have gone on 10 cruises with all of those. Perhaps I might start selling on Ebay. O'well, the bags are only half as many as the shoes! :) Had to go count my bags after reading this. 25 in total including a Coach, Louis Vitton, Fendi, Prada, Liz, Kathy VanZealand, Ralph Lauren and Hermes.

Hi Host Mach!

Could you provide a link to this thread???

I am hoping it will convince my husband’s family to have their next reunion on the Carnival Splendor.

And John, I am assuming from all the comments you will be the CD on the Splendor… Is this true??? Hope so!

Thanks!

I only have 1 handbag. It came from Walmart and when it falls apart, I will buy another. Not much for brand names, and I would much rather spend my money on a cruise. After all, it is just a hole that stores stuff, but a cruise is a forever memory.Ciao, Kathleen HI,
