our 20th cruise on Princess ships gave us 800.00 spending money, not good for me as not able to use in the casino, good for specialty restaurants and any onboard stores, drinks and shore excursions (which we don't take). We will have some special dinners, and the wife will shop. Have a nice mini-suite w/ large balcony. I have 500.00 in 100.00 Tournament chips from previous cruises, I might use? The cruise leaves and returns to LA/San Pedro. Stops in Monterry,SF., San Diego, Ensenada. Bunch of my Del Webb poker group buddies going. I'm bringing cards and home game chips, we plan on playing in the card room a couple of nights.
