[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree that Grand Cayman is easy. Cruises are the easiest. You literally don’t need to worry about dinner reservations, activities, etc. [/quote] But they are also super trashy. [/quote] Sigh. No, cruises are not super trashy. Go price out a spring break cruise on Disney, Royal Caribbean, Celebrity, etc. leaving from Florida and you’ll see how expensive it is. Hint: not cheap to fly to FL, stay in a local hotel, then cruise for a week…plus excursions. I was a reluctant cruiser who quickly discovered how relaxing a cruise is. Sitting on a lounge chair in a quiet area while the kids go do other activities is bliss. Not having to worry about getting dinner reservations in touristy cities or islands is Heaven. Hitting 3 or 4 Caribbean islands and taking a cab to a quiet beach is awesome. There’s nothing trashy about it. Plus: I love the live music. Royal Caribbean has different kinds of live music all over their ships day and night. It’s fun. [/quote] Trashy and expensive are by no means mutually exclusive. Especially when it comes to cruises.[/quote] This [/quote] We are a foreign service and military family, speak six languages and have lived in some real hardship posts. We have taken trips where you are the only people in the village who speak English, where you go fishing with the local fisherman, where someone slaughters and roasts a lamb etc. and those trips are without question completely awesome, But we are getting ready now to take a vacation after nursing my father through a long illness and his death, moving my mother to a nursing home, selling the family home etc. And we are taking a cruise to Canada. We are not looking for a challenging adventure. We want predictability, rest and not to be asked to do things outside of our comfort zone. There are lots of different kinds of vacations.[/quote]
