[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For me, the mom, cruises mean

1. I don't have to plan meals
2. I don't have to cook or order food
3. I don't have to do the dishes
4. I don't have to plan activities
5. I don't have to hear people complain that have to do things they don't want to do
6. There are built in playmates/friends to hang with
7. I don't have to plan evening activities

For me, a cruise is about not having to handle the mental load.  I'm just as happy renting a villa in Jamaica with a staff to handle most of these things.  But a cruise is cheaper.[/quote]

So much this.

I love all kinds of vacations, have taken my child around the world with me, hotels and villas and Airbnb and Europe— don’t worry travel snobs I see you!

But when I have to please 4 dietary restrictions (one dangerous) an adult who really wants to relax poolside or be at a spa and one who refuses to go a day without a run, eight kids (and six bedtimes) etc in my extended family? Thats just exactly why Disney cruises exist.[/quote]
