Just returned, yesterday, from a great trip aboard the cruise ship 'Disney
Magic'. A great week with stops at Key West, Grand Cayman, Cazumel, and
Castaway Key, by Abaco Island in the Bahamas.

Norwalk Virus, necrotizing fasciitis, MRSA, colds, influenza...

Sure, I'll take a cruise on a big ship with hundreds of other people
and their rug rats that I don't know on your recommendation.

Like hell I will. :)

Ditto. As an aging baby boomer I cannot imagine wanting to take a cruise
aboard a ship filled with snot nosed screaming spoiled
brats........grandkids or not.

Hmm, you just got ****y with JohnH for saying something about YOUR
kids, but it seems as you don't mind saying something about someone
elses......

I shudder every time we go out for dinner to find us next to a cheap skate
family who decided to bring their screaming preschooler with them rather
than hire a baby sitter. Having to endure an entire cruise with that
*atmosphere* is not my cup of tea.

Maybe the person isn't a "cheapskate". Maybe that person wants his
children to learn social skills. Did you wait until your kids were
teenagers before you let them out?
