More facts about cruising

Let’s continue our discussion about cruising.

• Is cruising going to a resort? Well, yes and no, most of the cruise ships are going to have a lot of the same comforts as a resort would. They even have the big shows and casinos. but you have to remember that this is a ship. The ship’s crew can choose to reroute you at any time because of bad weather or something like that.
• Isn’t cruising for either newlyweds or nearly dead? Again, this used to be true, but isn’t the case anymore. Cruises are doing more and more to cater to families. A lot of ships are going to have kid’s clubs where you can leave your children. They also have a lot of activities families can do together.
• Am I going to get sick on a cruise? Most people will have no problems getting seasick on a cruise. The ships are usually big enough that you do not feel a thing. And as far as any illness on the ship, keep washing your hands and be pretty careful with germs.

Some facts about cruising

People who haven’t cruised tend to think that cruising simply isn’t for them. They may think that it is too expensive. They may also think that cruises are not something older people do people might worry they would get bored on a ship.. Or other people might think, “”Sure, there is plenty of food to be had on these ships, but it is all those huge buffets, and children will put their hands on the food, and the whole things sounds totally unappetizing.” Today let’s look at some of the myths of cruising and what the truth of the matter.

• Is cruising expensive? Cruises are a lot like other things. You can get ones that are very inexpensive, or you can get them for a lot of money. A general rule of hand thumb is the more you pay up front, the less you will have to pay once you are on board. Cruises tend to be all inclusive in nature. And that means you are going to get your food and drinks, your lodging, your transportation, and a lot of your activities for one price.
• Is a cruise truly all inclusive? Well , that depends on what kind of cruise you go on. I hear that Carnival and cruises like that are pretty bad about nicakleknd dim. The more expensive cruises are going to include a lot more in what you will pay up front It all depends on what you want to do.
• Are all cruise ships the same? While might have been true in the past, it is definitely not true these day. There are ships that carry less than one hundred guests, and ships that carry more than ten thousand. What do you and your family love doing together? I’m betting you can find a ship that caters to that interest.

I remember when I was little we used to rent a condo with my aunts and their families. It was perfect We could cook for everyone. We could go play on the beach. We could go on outings.
• Glamping isn’t going to be as inexpensive as camping. But you will get a nice comfortable bed and good food that is made for you. You can do some research to figure out where to go glamping. Or I could help are you figure something out.
