I personally am not into it.... I was stuck on one once ( Stuck is how I saw it) You dont get to select whom you are trapped on board with for many days....not my bag a boring chips....

that's one of my main problem with boats, besides the fact that I'm prone to seasickness. You end up in the same boat with a bunch of people and can't get off! of course, this has only happened to me with close relatives on a small sailboat, but still seems to be a recipe for misery.

i wish

i'd be that person reading the book all alone on the deck.

Ok so yes, I am also pron to seasickness.... Thus my opinion is slightly tainted as well!

Have any available time in Feb?

Muse2NOPharaoh said:

possibly

I can't help it...earth and fire are my elements...

Most excellent... More then 24 hours round trip this round... Perhaps a solid 48 to 72... good folk on the menu!

Muse2NOPharaoh said:

oh, I see...

CHIC0 said:

Never been on one.

My daughter & I watched a special on the Travel channel about Disney cruises, and now she swears that we're going on one.

I will admit that they seem excellent, but because we are a family of FIVE, the prices are very expensive.

heartbeatocean said:

boo!

a cruise is something i've always wanted to do. but i dunno about being out in the middle of the ocean with absolutely nothing around. sounds kind of scary. but scary is no reason not to do something.

The best job I ever had was working on a cruise ship. For me, it was like being paid to be on vacation! You get paid minimum wage but make it up in tips and the living quarters are small and cramped but we never spent a whole lotta time in there anyway.

I loved it and would recommend it to anyone who likes to travel

CHIC0 said:

If they paid me, I would do it.

heartbeatocean said:

i'll give you $1

No never and that sure won't change as I'd be damn seasick . But even if that wouldn't happen I think it would be quite boring .

what was your job?

4everYoung said:

there's a bar i go to here on Kauai that is right next to where the cruise ship docks. all of the "boat people" go to it. they all seem to love their job. i'm not sure i could handle being away so much for work. but hell, that's why i'm here anyway, so i guess i could handle it. i'm realizing more and more just how much i can't handle it with each trip here though, so i don't think i'd want to chose another job like that.

Ohohoh- ME ME ME!! I have been on one- it was a while back but I had a blast from what I remember!! Royal Carribean!!! SO FUN!

where'd you go? for how long? how much did it cost?

details..i need details..

I couldn't think of something worse than being stuck on a boat for weeks with people I find disagreable. Having said I like to go cruising when aboard a ship. Ahoy there maties!

MNlivingCA said:

Shit, it's you! Please stick around more often.

P.S. You're hot xx

funny I was looking at cruises on expedia.com a little while ago. I want to go to one to the caribbean pref. Puerto Rico, but I don't like the idea of being on a ship for seven days. I saw one that was four days, and it was round trip but I'm not sure how I feel about getting off on an island for a couple of hours and not knowing where the hell to go.

Been cruising a bunch...For the money you can not beat it. You can get on a ship depending on which port for as little as $350, that's an inside room with no window. The last one I went on cost me about $1200 per person, suite with a balcony 7 days. That covers all your food and accommodations. They will pretty much plan out your entire trip for you once you reach your destination port if you buy one of their excursion packages. Or do your own research and get away from the crowds. Carnival is probably the cheapest but if you can spare a few extra bucks try Royal Carribean and make sure you get on a good ship.
ENJOY!
