I do not care to cruise but my MIL & DFIL go on a 108 day cruise every single year and a short 2 week cruise yearly also. I think they love them. LOL They have cruised the World I cannot tell you how many times.

That sounds like a fun cruise!!!
Hopefully it had a lot less drinking and gambling going on than most cruises. I love MWS music. I have seen him in concert a couple times.

25 years ago I got to go on a cruise in the Mediterranean...Greece, Turkey, Greek Islands. Unbelievable!! That was when everything was still all formal...evening gowns, tuxes, assigned seating, etc. It was a total blast!!! Maybe I'll get to go on a "modern" cruise one day.

We went on a Disney Cruise to the Bahamas. That was a blast!
Maybe next time the kids can go!

Great trip, but was working aboard, and it was a tiresome thing. We had a man have a heart attack outside US waters, so Capt. made it full out till we could get a Coastguard helo to land aboard to take him into US hospital. Exciting, but scary. Never will work another Cruise kitchen. Too much work

Did you hear on the news about a crew ship's engine caught on fire and they were stuck out at sea today. What a nightmare.

See there is a nightmare going on at sea now with the crew ship stuck at sea with engine problem. Just heard it on the tv. Not ever going on a cruise.

I love cruising.... Have been all over the Carribean. Just love it! Have gone with a group of friends and hubby & I have gone alone. It's best with friends. We want to do another one real soon.
