rec.travel.cruises: Please share your experience with the group about what cruise you went on that was your favorite, the cruise line, and the ports of call The inaugural Bravo Cruise of the Performing Arts, 1 week in November 2014 on Royal Carribean's Radiance of the Sea: http://chooseyourcruise.tv/bravo/. I wouldn't have minded if the ship had never left Sydney Harbour - the performances were just stunning: Cheryl Barker, David Hobson, Teddy Tahu Rhodes, Simon Tedeschi, Guy Noble and a 35-piece orchestra, Marina Prior, Tommy Fleming, Michael Falzon, Elaine Page, ... It will be done again in October 2015, with a slightly less stellar cast, IMHO. -- Michael Bednarek "ONWARD" |

Granted the older ships are basically crap but they are refurbishing most of them. My last cruise was on the carnival dream and it was wonderful, there isn't a thing I can complain about. The ship was clean and sanitary, the performers were great, and the food was wonderful, I mean what little I could eat that did not contain gluten. A few of the wait staff were idiots, but that could have just been the language barrier and my speech or accent. The rooms were cozy and I even accidently drank one of the liquors form the fridge and they did not even charge me for it. |

My complaint is with the Carnival customers. I found that their average passenger is a big time boozer. Some people get so sloshed that they accidentally drink stuff they find laying around! ;-) personally when I go on a cruise the only time I am sober is the first hour or so after I wake up.... then I drink a slow but steady rum/water combo the entire cruise, I am not **** faced falling down drunk, but I feel great..... also I am not a mean crazy drunk I am a happy fun loving talkitive kinda drunk. And I would do that on any cruise that I took no matter what name was on the side of the ship |
