My wife and I decided to go on 9 day trip from Baltimore on the Enchantment of the Seas. We both needed a bit of a break, and the price was great.
I was a little worried that my wife would not enjoy it. Although we met on a cruise, she actually does not like cruising all that much. This trip made her a bit of a convert- especially because the ease of getting away and some of the on-board entertainment.
We are from the DC area and it was very nice to sail so close to home. Getting to the port was a breeze and we saved the hassle and expense of air travel. However, it is a long way down to warm weather. On balance, I might be tempted to pay the airfare it exchange for more warm days- but it is a close call. My wife LOVED not having to fly- so I guess we will be sailing from Baltimore.
