Great first cruise experience!

What I learned: -you DO feel the boat moving! Some people warned me ahead of time that you wouldn't and it surprised me how much you did feel it, especially at the front of the boat (gym in particular). Some nights when we traveled at a faster speed you could really feel it, other nights that were slower you didn't -cruises are different than all-inclusive resort trips!

Things I liked better than all-inclusives: variety of ports/locations become snapshots for future travelling. Food is more consistent. Water is drinkable from tap. Lots of variety of indoor and outdoor options during the daytime. Read more
