E-mail me (drop the "nospam" part of the reply to). I'll offer several
suggestions. And I've got lots of digital photos of sister ships Infinity
and Constellation.

We've traveled the Summit and Infinity, sister ships. Excellent
service, entertainment, food, and excellent ships overall. Summit in
Alaska, and Infinity to and through the Panama canal.

BTW here is a site where I have some pictures and a review of our March '04
trip on Summit http://home.comcast.net/~lfsimon/

Also found this site with lots of links to Summit info
http://cruiseclues.com/shipstips/summit.htm

We took Summit's 10 Day Caribbean itinerary last March, and are taking the
11 day trip next March - same cabin. This will be our 6th cruise overall
and the first time we've sailed the same ship twice, let alone twice in a
row. We loved out trip on Summit.

Funny, Larry, we're booked on the Summit in January (our fifth Celebrity
cruise with five on Royal and two on Princess) and it's the first time
we're repeating, as well! We enjoyed the ship immensely in Alaska in
2002, and are greatly looking forward to a the upcoming Eastern/Southern
Caribbean voyage.

We found the ship to be quite beautiful, the service perfectly
wonderful, and the food very enjoyable.

I loved the eastern/southern itinerary. We had such a good time, only
slight disappointment was Barbados where we picked the only spot on the
island where it was raining to hang out on a beach. Our ship mates didn't
believe us when we told them it was cloudy and rainy all afternoon as they
were in strong sun all day! Of course we presumed it started raining all
over or we would have just left. Didn't actually rain much, mostly one
shower then partially cloudy with a couple sprinkles in the next hour or
two.

My wife and I were on the Infinity, sister ship to the Summit, on her second
voyage to Alaska. Fantastic ship. One word, thallasotherapy whirlpool.
Mineraled water/jacuzzi type whirlpool where the bubbles start from below
and almost totally support you. It's like floating on air. Great workout
facilities as well if you're into that. Very cheap spa services so get a
massage if you can. Best food of any cruise we've been on with Princess a
close second. All around service was impeccable from everyone. Great library
and music CD collection as well.

Have fun!

Well, there's something you don't often hear. How cheap were the
massages? I've found massages on cruise ships to be about 50% more
than the nicest day spa in this area (north Jersey) charges.

If I remember correctly, it was $100 for an hour, and my girl was every bit
a professional, in the normal sense of course. vbg I guess that seems
cheap to me because the Canyon Ranch Spa at the Venetian in Las Vegas wanted
$180 for 40 minutes last month.

Like all things in life, it's all relative and based on what perspective
you're viewing then situation from. 20 years ago I would have laughed at
even paying for a massage but approaching 50 with lower back problems, now
it doesn't seem so bad. g
