Carnival is about the cheapest of the cruise lines, but I'd never go on one of their cruises. You're
right, it seems like they have more illness and other problems than all the other cruise lines put
together.


I always say the food and service in general is what you would expect
at a Carnival.


Have you been on one?

Several when we were cruising with Trane and Carrier (sales prizes).
My daughter got married on the Destiny. At the time the difference
between Carnival and Holland America was striking. I am not sure what
it is like now that it is one company.

You can buy a lot of whack with that kind of money, not to mention a
whole boat load of ready, eager and willing...

We'll probably stick with Disney, although I've been hearing some good things about MSC. We're going
out of New Orleans in Feb on a Disney ship. Looking forward to spending a few days in New Orleans
once we return. Neither of us have ever been there.

We are probably done cruising. If we do anything it would be a river
cruise in the US. The only ocean cruises that might interest me would
be one of those New Horizon things with the ship board seminars and
historic/scientific stops. My wife is not that interested.

Getting stuff lined up to do a good river/ lake cruise probably this summer or early fall. Hope nothing crash’s the plans this year. Been waiting on it a long time...

Look into the Lindblad cruises. Pricey, but they look very cool.

I might be able to talk her into the Scotland one. Now where is that
lottery ticket?

Go to Dragos. It's on the river. Great food and service and a decent
price. NOLA if you want to go upscale. Acme is good, too, if you are
near Bourbon Street but they are usually busy and it's a little loud.

Thanks. We're staying at the Hilton New Orleans, which is downtown. Is the Dragos also known as the
Dragos-Hilton on Poydras St.? That's only a half-mile from the hotel.

And, Merry Christmas to you!
