Kilted Cruise Pictures...

Cruises are great for a first time visit to an area when you just want to hit the highlights. They're also great when you're making several stops, like in the Caribbean. In fact, I would say that a cruise is a great way to see the islands, since aside from a few notable spots on each island, each place looks much like the other.

Obviously then cruises are your thing, they're just not mine. I've heard to many horror stories regarding the size of cabins etc, and truthfully I'm not interested.

But, I gotta say, Nasau did not impress me in the least.

I have to agree on this, Nassau didn't do anything for me either. The nearby resort areas aren't bad, and I'm sure some of the other islands are nice, but Nassau is just another city.

Oh, they're certainly not for everyone, and if you want to visit a site more than an hour from the port, it is a real hassle, and may not be feasible. Also, if you just want to visit one area, they're not real practical.

The basic cabins are certainly not big, but I never spend a lot of time there anyway. Cabins are for sleeping/napping and changing clothes.

I been on six cruises and have another planned, but I've also taken land vacations. It all depends on what I'm going to see. I tend to pick trips based on the sites seen and not the conveyance.

I will have to say that I went to an all-inclusive on Jamaica and it was great. The biggest effort I had to make was putting on long pants for dinner (pre-kilt days).
