[cruzin w chris]

ok people, what are your top 2 or 3 favorite things to do while on your cruise ship ? for me it has to be #1 laying out on the deck in my lounge chair with a cold drink. #2 eating all the great foods. #3 i really like getting up early and walking around the ship while most others are sleeping because it is just peaceful. now lets hear yours.

[CaribbeanBound]

1. Exploring new ports.

2. Waiter service 2-to-3 times a day.

Spending great time with my family on a beautiful ship. Spending great time by myself on a beautiful ship......they like the sun and water and games outside. I like to walk around and explore. sit in the shade with a book. and play in the casino:eek:

[TxGal]

#1 is sitting on my verandah reading a book and drinking champagne. Second is room service breakfast on the verandah. Third is laying out in the sun on the verandah (while reading a book and drinking champagne). I'm addicted to verandahs!!:D

1. Out on deck with a good book (or THE Good Book!).

 

2. Taking photos of the ocean, the beaches, etc.

[TennisLover]

#1 Laying out in the sun with a good book (James Patterson, if he would just write them faster) and a blended drink while my family is having a good time doing whatever it is they are doing

 

#2 Singing in the piano bar with my DH, having a few drinks (while the DS and DD are with their friends or in their cabin

[TennisLover]

I'm allowed one more?

 

#3 Going to a different port every day, with a different beach, different shops (some times) and new experiences (no drink requirement here).

#1 Watching an island rise up out of the ocean as we cruise into port.

#2 Watching the same island sink away in the distance as we leave

#3 Watchign the sun rise and sun set

[cruiserssandr]

Going on excursions while in port. Feel like a kid on a field trip!

[cruisinbuddy]

1. Being waited on hand and foot. Except for cruise vacations We've had to do the cooking and cleaning etc.

2. Snorkling in that water oh baby, baby.

3. I agree with Jeanie821, taking lots of pictures. Last cruise I took @ 300.

[ckrobyn]

For me, I have to say:

 

1. Sitting on my balcony each morning watching the sun rise as the ship slowly draws nearer to the Port.

 

2. After dinner, taking a glass wine up to the top deck to enjoy the warm Caribbean evening breeze.

 

Paradise found :o

[GottaLuvCruising]

Relaxing on my verandah, with a good book, watching and listening to the ocean.

 

Walking on the Lido Deck late at night, in the quiet, with my husband...and seeing another cruise ship off in the distance.

[cruzin w chris]

oh man, these all sound fantastic. 23 more days- i just cannot wait. ok people lets see some more top 3s or more is ok.

[Bobba22]

I would have to say based on our last cruise it would be Standing on the upper deck late at night watching the moonlight shimmer off the water behind the ship. And #2 would be a moonlight dance with my lovely wife under that same moonlit sky

[suezyq50]

Sitting in the sun with a good book, along with my favorite drink and husband.

 

Going on an excursion. I like the idea of going to different ports without packing and repacking.

Nighttime on the deck and seeing another ship off in the distance is a favorite of me too! Our first night we like to take a bottle of champagne and sit on a quiet aft deck to watch the night sky and the water churn as we sail away from the real world and sail towards paradise :D

[Jane110]

1. Having a long work-out out the gym followed by a facial at the spa.

 

2. Getting up early, going out on the verandah to watch the sunrise and then going back to sleep for a couple of hours.

 

3. Dancing in the disco. Fun to be able to just wander up there for a couple of dances without it being a whole evening's "comittment". Also being able to put my purse down while dancing and not worry about it being stolen.

[ladypalmtree]

Jane...you still have to worry about theft..even on a cruise...dd got her purse stolen while dancing..all kinds of people travel!:o

[Happy ks]

There are a whole bunch of favorites for us, but the best are:

 

1.Getting up real early and watching the ship sail into port. We take a cup of hot coffee with us, the sight of the port towns are beautiful, so clean and quiet, there's hardly anyone else around.

 

2. Going up on deck late at night to see the reflection of the ocean, the stars and the moon. We walk a few laps before turning in and just enjoy the air and the solitude, there's hardly anyone else around.

[10X]

1. Scuba diving

 

2. Underwater photography

 

3. Snorkeling

 

For my wife it would be:

 

1. Snorkeling

 

2. Underwater photography (she took somewhere between 900-1000 pictures on our 14 day cruise in February)

 

3. Shopping

[FrogLover215]

1) Having a new location appear like magic every day, without the hassle of packing and unpacking every day

2) Walking the decks at night with my husband, hot chocolate in hand - once we saw dolphins racing the ship while we were doing this

3) Reading or playing card games in the library

[Kat_in_Texas]
