msmemory_archiveWe're thinking that maybe it's time to try a cruise instead of a resort for vacation at the end of May. Any experiences to relate, good or bad, with specific cruise lines or packagers? Especially, comments on the food and the noise/chaos level. :) Other cruising advice? (I've already read Ian's message from this spring.)
ETA: when I say "noise/chaos" I'm thinking of all types, from young exuberant children, to packs of mall-rat teens, to geezers who think that 6 a.m. is "sleeping in." It's not (just) about young kids. :)

Date: 2007-04-30 02:10 am (UTC)The Holland America ship we were on last fall had a German executive chef (working for a Dutch company) so most of the menu featured butter and chocolate (not that this was a bad thing). The stewards were very attentive [partly because they loved playing with MiL's electric scooter].
Fall '05 we were on a Royal Caribbean ship. Less impressed with the executive chef (but still very acceptable), the stewards were attentive without hovering.
I remember that on both the kids were kept occupied. Part of that may have been the itineraries also.
I'll be happy to into more detail back-channel if you like.
