Cruising

For those of you who have never been on a cruise first of all let me tell you, you are in for a real treat ! This is the best bang for your buck so to speak. Even in an all inclusive where you get your alcohol included, you won't find the wonderful gourmet food like you will on a cruise. I have stayed at 5 and 6 star resorts in the Caribbean and still you cannot compare the food. So unless you are a big drinker and are afraid of what your bar bill might be at the end of the week, a cruise just might be for you. Don't get it in your head before you go that you are going to be sea sick. It is truly mind over matter. I worked on a cruise ship and people would come on board and race to the drug store on board to buy sea bands because they thought they were going to be sick before we even left port. I will say, swells on the ocean are different that waves on a regular boat but don't dwell on it. I never slept so good as when I worked on the ship. The waves (or swells) would put me to sleep. Mind over matter completely !
For those of you though who like to be relaxing in the same spot every day perhaps a cruise isn't for you. What I found though, if you don't want to get off the boat and go into a port, stay on board, enjoy the ship, find a quiet spot where nobody else is and read and enjoy the breeze. In ports I have already been too sometimes I don't bother getting off the ship.
There is much to do on board, entertainment, casinos, shuffle board, surfing, swimming, games room, library, internet access, mini golf, roller blading (believe it or not), ice skating, movie night and the list goes on and on. Email me directly for advice on cruising !
