What's your favorite part of a cruise?

[Staceman225]

Not a specific cruise but a general "this is GREAT" moment. Mine is right after boarding but before muster, after getting to know the ship a little, eating lunch on the Lido deck thinking of the fun I'll have for the next few days. I'm at 48 days and counting and ready to burst....

Mornings with coffee on the balcony and evenings with wine on the balcony. Peaceful and relaxing to watch the ocean and see an occasional whale or porpoise or sea bird. Taking my binoculars this time!

Breakfast, about the only decent meal to eat.

My absolute favorite part of the cruise is the moment I board the ship. It's as if a metamorphosis occurs and for awhile nothing else seems important.

1....Standing out on deck, or on my balcony....feeling the breeze, hearing the wind over the water, breathing in that tangy air. As I take a deep breath and then exhale I know that I am on vacation and my stress level goes way down.

 

2....Watching either the sun come up to wash the deck slowly with light and color, or watching the sun set as it changes the color of the clouds and the water and then slowly sink into the horizon.

One of my favorite parts is that first night when you get into bed knowing that you have however many days of not having to cook, clean or work. That feeling of you and your loved ones are being taken care of and you can just relax. It's why I love cruising as a vacation.

Every evening the last thing we do before tuning in is walk around the open decks enjoying the night air and the sounds of the ocean. Pure Heaven!:D

Just walking thru the causeway knowing in a minute I will step foot on the ship....after 49 cruises that still makes me happy!

Arriving at the port!:D

The anticipation. Once I'm ON the ship, I know the countdown until it's over has begun....

Feeling the ocean breeze and watching the fluorescent waves the ship makes at night.

This may sound odd but for me it is 2 parts, the drive up to the ship, looking at it get closer and closer....................:D

 

The 2nd is checking time, at the port counter, knowing my vacation is on!! :eek:

The moment I book the cruise and start planning. All the possibilities and all the hours thinking about what to do and see.

I love the second the alarm sounds after muster to excuse everyone. I feel like that is the exact second my vacation starts.

When our luggage is safely in our cabin and muster drill is over! :D
