And ye...NGB, thanks so much for your encouragement. And yes, I do plan to check into it further. I'm certainly tempted by the travels - it's just the "boat" issue concerning me, really. But I'm generally logical, so hopefully I can talk some sense into myself!<BR/>-----------------------------<BR/>SimplyRik, thanks so much for your encouragement! Your passion for cruising tells me how enjoyable it can be, and I definitely plan to look into it! Thanks so much for your comment. =)<BR/>-------------------------------<BR/>Heather, if you go this fall/winter, please be sure to let me know what your own personal experience was with cruising!Kimba The White Lionesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16477952394289406683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1024011350279762661.post-30735037369305639412008-05-21T16:22:00.000-04:002008-05-21T16:22:00.000-04:00I haven't done one (yet) but am considering a crui...I haven't done one (yet) but am considering a cruise for this fall/winter. <BR/> <BR/>-But I bet your husband is right in thinking that you'd enjoy discovering all those places and people. Sounds like a fun adventure to share...!! Hopefully, you could spring for one of the bigger rooms; it sounds like that would be an important consideration for you.<BR/><BR/>Oh, I hope you go so that you can have fun and tell us about it!Heather Dugan Creative / Footstepshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04092780116822736321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1024011350279762661.post-29414397811223501092008-05-21T13:24:00.000-04:002008-05-21T13:24:00.000-04:00OMG! I am such a cruise fanatic! Aside from the ...OMG! I am such a cruise fanatic! Aside from the various "Cruises" I attended while in the Marine Corps, we had our honeymoon on one that went from Italy to Barcelona! <BR/><BR/>The next one I went on by my self as part of a digital photography adventure to Alaska. It was also unbelievable.<BR/><BR/>Aside from that, the sheer logistics of a Cruise far outweigh any "normal" vacation anyone could go on. Think of all of the places a cruise visits, then try to work out a visit to all of the same locations on the same trip taking normal transportation. Not to mention the stresses of the travel and packing/unpacking! <BR/><BR/>I say go for it! I blogged a bit about my adventure on my site. It is well worth it.<BR/><BR/>p.s., get some of the sea-sicky wrist bands to help with the nausea/fear. The Mrs. said it helped her immensely.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1024011350279762661.post-31222953613726783382008-05-19T00:06:00.000-04:002008-05-19T00:06:00.000-04:00Hey Kimba,I've never been on a cruise or traveled ...Hey Kimba,<BR/>I've never been on a cruise or traveled much for that matter. It seems like a wonderful thing tho. I know some people who have gone on cruises and loved it so much that they make plans every year to go to some new place. We all have our fears and overcoming them can be hard obstacles but I know you can do it. Just think of all the fun you can have and what better than to have your soulmate - hubby right beside you reassuring you that all will be ok. Hope you find some answers you are seeking. Perhaps a research of cruises might give you some insight. Make a list of pros and cons and go from there. Sheesh I'm rambling here, lol, but I'm certain that you will make the right choice.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1024011350279762661.post-52843700558626249832008-05-18T09:00:00.000-04:002008-05-18T09:00:00.000-04:00KAK- thanks???

LOL - nothing like reassuring me that my fears are unfounded...=)<BR/><BR/>Soge- this has to be planned at least a year in advance, so I would have some time to thoroughly research things, think about them, and adjust my psyche - if I decided to go after all. I'm wondering though if it might not be better for me to start with something smaller than 12 days at sea... like a local cruise ship on the Great Lakes for a weekend, perhaps. Build myself up to a bigger cruise, so to speak. ??Kimba The White Lionesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16477952394289406683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1024011350279762661.post-12767414093758327412008-05-17T16:10:00.000-04:002008-05-17T16:10:00.000-04:00Never been on a cruise.

If you aren't comfortable and the thought terrifies you then maybe you should suggest to your husband somewhere else. If you feel you can stomach it then go for it.Soge shirtshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16726787866181861491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1024011350279762661.post-72503541955579073662008-05-17T09:21:00.000-04:002008-05-17T09:21:00.000-04:00Sorry no cruise experience, I do tend to think lik...Sorry no cruise experience, I do tend to think like you on that one.
