What is your favorite part of cruising?

[Alaskan Joe]

My favorite part of cruising is.......

 

Waking up to a different destination every morning:)

[cruiseintoheaven]

Unpacking, putting valuables in the safe (along with my brain:) and knowing that as soon as muster is over....I'm on vacation! [emoji3]

[provencedelsol]

Not having any assignments such as making beds, cleaning, cooking. Only have to do what I WANT to.

[OCruisers]

Simply being on the ship! :D

[geoherb]

Being at sea.

[Steven_&_Daniel]

Stepping onto a Princess ship is like coming home. Everything and everyone else disappears. I instantly relax and have no cares or worries for the rest of the cruise!

Doing whatever I want to do or not do. Standing on our balcony with my husband watching the ship wake with the breeze on our faces. Not having to cook or clean or having any distractions ex: e-mail, FB ect. Having breakfast delivered to cabin and eating on the balcony or in our room in my PJ's. and a host of other things.:)

We usually sail from Southampton in the uk, always go down the day before and stay at the Holiday Inn . We love to see the ship come in knowing that in a few hours we will be on it. Tbh we like it all.

 

Unfortunately we are having to wait until September [emoji16]

Breakfast in Sabatinni's and dinner on our balcony.

I love this type of question!!

 

My favorite part of cruising is: watching people having a good time while I'm sipping on something tasty! :D

I love watching the waves. I really love everything about cruising.

Being on the ship. Period. Everything else is a bonus. I love the rocking and rolling but unfortunately, the Captain does everything he can to minimize that. :)

1. Being at sea, breathing in that lovely fresh air;

2. Not having to cook, clean, etc.;

3. Visiting other countries;

4. Being treated like a princess...;

5. Having choices of entertainment, as little or as much as I want.

 

These are just a few examples....

I feel the same way about the rocking and rolling!

My favourite would have to be, getting on the ship and exploring, having fun and let's not forget the food on there.

Sea Days

[IDsailor]

I like unpacking once knowing that I am "home" and traveling to see and experience lots of interesting places.

Hey, I was going to say that! LOL :p

 

Personally, I love the big ships, but unfortunately they make for smoother sailing. I hate that! :D

[Putterdude]

Laying on a recliner by the pool, reading and listening to tunes and HAPPY HOUR!:D

[Cobbins]

Sailing from Southampton so no flying, then once aboard ........everything[emoji41][emoji41]

Including all of the waiting: waiting for the cruise date to get here, waiting at the hotel the night before, waiting in line to check in (I also enjoy interacting with the person doing the check-in), and waiting in the line as we actually board. My anticipation builds until I want to pop! I feel like a little girl anticipating Christmas.

 

We enjoy all the activities involved with waiting because it's all colored with the knowledge that we'll soon be on the ship.

 

Then it's finally time and we're off on our advdenture.

 

I just LOVE crusing!

[Murphey]

Having a cocktail or wine on the balcony, then getting dressed up and going out for an evening of fine dining and entertainment. No Driving!!!!!!

Walking up the gangway....no, my breaking my pre-cruise diet with two slices at Pregos...no, getting to the cabin....no, sail away....no, watching DW with first umbrella drink...no, first dinner in the MDR....no, first sunset...no....well you get the picture; everything.

 

Although those first two Prego slices are hard to beat for me.

 

Safe Journeys, Paul

I have to agree with everyone here. I love everything about being on a cruise. And having sailed on other cruise lines, I realize that boarding a Princess ship is like coming home. :)

Sounds wonderful, northcalgal. My DH and I will be on our first cruise this coming September for our 43rd anniversary. We will be in an aft suite and your description sounds amazing. It literally made me close my eyes and feel the breeze. :)

 

Tanks for you for sharing.
