Have you ever been on a cruise ship?

Yes, I went from Florida Keys, Cozumel Mexico, Cayman Islands and to Jamaica and back to Miami, Florida

It was my 1st time on a cruise ship and had a blast. I enjoyed stopping at the ports and did snorkling, shopping, took a canoe over to a private island and lots of site seeing at the ports.

Yes we have done several. They are our vacations of choice. Last Feb we went to Hawaii and cruised to 4 of the islands, it was a trip of a lifetime. Our other cruises have all been Carribean ones. What line did you go on???

Yes. We've taken 3 cruises with our DDs,their hubs & 3 teen Grkids.Wonderful time had by all.Both were Caribbean cruises to diff locations, St Martin,Cayman Is,Virgin Is etc.

DH & I plan to go again.One DD will cruise in Jan, the other is going on Spring break..Once you go on a cruise, you're spoiled for other types of vacations....at least I am :-)

Nice ppl, no driving, good food at all hrs & lots of diff entertainment.They have spas,gambling,shopping,kids areas, pools,just name it.

I told my DH I wanted us to go on a cruise for our 40th anniversary. He immediately replied that after being on that navy ship, no more boats! He was AirForce assigned to a Navy ship tracking Russian missle shots for a couple of years back in the 80's.

Guess my girlfriend and I will just have to leave our hubby's at home and go together. Hers won't go either!

On our first cruise we renewed our wedding vows with the captain of the ship doing the honors. That was for our 35th. Took a second cruise with friends 2 years later.Even more fun than the first. Went to various islands in the Caribbean. We are hoping for an Alaskan cruise this spring. We plan to do the land adventure first and then the cruise. That is planned with 2 other couples.

I went in my 25th anniversary, I loved it...the hubby said it was ok...he is not into crowds, crowded dinning, and the thought of being in the middle of the ocean. Me...I loved it...just wish we did not go to bed at 8pm every night...I would have loved to go with a bunch of girlfriends. Next time we are flying to an island so he can have the remote feeling.

Did a Carribean Cruise to St. Thomas, St. Croix and San Juan in 1999. And when I retired in 2008 my retirement trip was cruise up to Skagway and back to Vancouver... too COLD! Will be doing warm water cruises from now on!

No, but I spent four wonderful days on a schooner ship....the American Eagle. It was a trully wonderful experience and would do it again. No luxuries there; but wonderful food and great people. http://www.schooneramericaneagle.com/about/
