I love to travel , 3 months in Thailand last year , but wouldn’t take a cruise if it was for free , if I want a quick vacation I would rather go to Club Med somewhere interesting

I agree!

since that initial cruise we've only sailed with Windstar....no more than 300 folks on board...or150 on their smaller ships

maybe a little more $$$...but you're not in port with 4 huge cruise ships....Windstar ships go into the smaller ports that the big ships can't get to ...and the service is over the top

We sailed on one of the bigger ships that can hold 3-5 K of people. It seems the larger the boat the number of a-holes grows to great numbers. Will stick to the smaller ones.

We have been going on ships that hold 3-4000 people and have found that most folks are fine to be around and we love to sit with another couple and hear their stories.

Cant wait to be off again but sadly probably not till sometime next year
