Instead of a cruise,I'm leaning back more towards an' "All Inclusive" somewhere.
The HouseMouse called her friend the travel agent.
TA said the deals aren't that great trying to get packages on the cruise ships. You have to bunk up 4 to a state room,etc etc. They really sting you good on the flight to the ship. You pay some silly taxes. Most cruise lines charge for drinks and extra activities.
She had some other reasons too,but I forget.
The Mouse and I did Mexico a year or 2 ago for 800.oo each including flight,hotel,food,drinks,entertainment,surfboards,boats,tennis,intro scuba-diving,etc. So,I'm leaning back that way.
I can picture some serious fun at a beach resort. Jet-ski races,beach volleyball tourneys,tandom para-sailing,fishing trips,rent a big boat for scuba and snorkel and party,wheelie and stoppie contests with 20 or 30 of us on those stupid rental scooters,local nightlife,deals on what the area has to offer like day trips to Mayan ruins or shopping or whatever.I think it might be more fun than a cruise and a little easier on the wallet too.
Just thinkin' outloud at this point.
Rubb.
