Hi fellow cruisers.
Just a fun questionairre:
What does everyone love the most about cruising?
Me:
Doing fun things with my husband and kids !
Karaoke !
Casino !
Swimming !
Sunbathing in the beautiful Caribbean warmth !
The yummy food that I don't have to cook and clean up after !
Camp Carnival !
The game shows !
The drinky poos !
The beautiful beaches !
Being at different ports of call almost every day !
The anticipation and excitment before we go and having something special to look forward to !
Everyone at home being jealous !
Wearing shorts and tank tops and bathing suits in the winter !
Relaxing !
I love absolutely everything about cruising. Most importantly getting away from the demands of every day life and focusing on what's REALLY the most precious thing in life. My kids.

Rising at the crack of dawn to see the ship come along side. Rising at the crack of noon on a sea day. Waking from an unscheduled nap on the veranda to the sound of the ship breaking water. I guess I really like awakenings!
Watching people lose inhibitions dancing under the cruise director's instructions (while not under the influence of alcohol) as I sip my beverage. Quiet strolls with my sweetheart on the pool deck before turning in.
The smell of the sea and an occasional wisp of diesel exhaust. The sounds of steel bands of varying degrees of proficiency, beckoning the cruisers to their sun-strewn beaches.
The sights, the sounds, the smells and time endless, un-interrupted time with my wife.
That is just a start on what I love about cruising!
The feel of the ship,the motion of the ocean,the star filled nights,the wake of the ship at night,the great night's sleep, the lack of any pressure,the complete relaxation,the great shipmates,the tasty cocktails,the fabulous dining,the entertainment,the crew-the list is endless-I/We adore cruising-even the worst of cruises is better than the best day at work-no matter what you do!!
Heading to the embarkation pic's as soon as they are posted to see who's cruising single
J/K (maybe)
I like the feeling when I get onboard that I can do whatever I like whenever I want to do it..... take a 2 or three hour nap, skip dinner and go to the buffet, hang in the casino till 3am. Read my book on the sunny deck.
My most Favorite past time on the Ship Is People watching.
