My internal debate concluded, and I have decided to cruise Royal Caribbean International again, this time on Freedom of the Seas.  Oasis and Allure of the Seas have all the headlines, but my want is for a vacation.  I will cruise Oasis or Allure at some point, but not this time.

I won't state the precise date, except that it will be in January 2012.  I will likely report-in from the ship though.  More on that at CruiseTravelGear.com as I work to determine what I'm going to pack for the cruise.
