What is something new you will do or try to do on your next cruise?

[Roadtripster]

For me, I am going to TRY to read a book. I usually don't bring one, because I can never find the time to read one. I don't really like to read, but will give it a shot this time.

 

My other thing is trying new foods. I am a picky eater. I will try a bite, but I probably won't like it. LOL

 

For my husband, he is going to try and stay awake past 8pm. Usually, at home, he is asleep by then.

Stay up later than 10:00! Last cruise we were up early everyday just to enjoy the early morning shine off of the sea, never took a nap, and found that we missed all of the late night entertainment, including the dancing we both had looked forward to, because we were so sleepy after all we had done during the day.

 

Also, I was planning on trying Escargot, until I watched America's Funniest Videos last week and there was the cutest little boy who gagged his way through his first experience of eating them. I don't think there's anyway I could eat them now without picturing him and having the same outcome he did.

this cruise i am only booking one tour. in the other ports i am going to do walking tours or go to free museums and things. i want to really see the ports this time without leaving the town.

Unlike several others, I want to get more than five hours sleep. Between the poker table and entertainment, I usually get to bed about two am, but still wake up early. I guess that is why they make afternoon naps!

I want to stay the same weight for the whole cruise.

[cruisinbuddy]

I'm going to try going down the water slide with my waterproof camera.

[Warmer Climes]

I want to parasail.

[electro]

We are trying early seating for dinner. On all our previous cruises, we have done late seating.

I will also try not to gain any weight which might be hard on a 12 night TA.

I want to parasail.

 

i have always wanted to this too. it would be awesome :D

[BroncosFan2010]

I would like to be SCUBA certified and go on a dive on my next cruise.

[retiredonthesea]

Zip line eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!:eek:

[Putterdude]

I haven't snorkled since I was a kid and want to do again soon...probably not on the Pacific Coastal next month but maybe on our Caribbean in January.:D

I want to parasail.

 

Make sure you do it! You will have a blast. Make sure they dip you in the water. :)

[printingchick]

Great question. It's amazing how many FIRSTS I've tried while cruising. Kayaking, parasailing, swimming with the sting rays, hiking in the rain forest. Isn't it great?

 

I think, like Nancy, I want to get in more night life. In my younger days, I was never in my cabin before 1AM. As I've aged, my sleep urge has begun to kick in much earlier. There is no such think as, "Let's just rest for a few minutes before we head back out to PARTY!" A "few minutes" always becomes tomorrow morning!!!

 

ENERGY DRINKS???

My 9 yr old with a small piece of escargot on his fork; but at least he tried it. We were in the Garden room. BTW I still do not like escargot at all. The flavor is good; I don't like the popping sensation when you bite into them and I don't like the chewy texture.

Good for him!! Too cute!

[dustyroad]

it looks like he liked it :D. he is brave to try it.

[TrevyMcShaw]

:eek: Escargot, ewwww!!! Brave, indeed!

 

I'll be visiting Uxmal and swimming in a cenote. Then I'm going to Cozumel to ride a four wheeler through the jungle. :D

That's me! I am going to parasail.:D

[Cruisenouvelle]

Like a few other posters,...try to stay up late!! My DH is a night owl, so I usually call it a night around 9:00-9:30 pm, and he takes in a show, casino, etc...

[beccab]

I intend to stay up for the chocolate buffet this time around. Have only been on one other cruise and missed this event.

[I'm on holiday]

I have to go with the stay up late theme. Don't know if it's the gentle rocking of the ship, or the adult beverages, but I have a hard time staying up and out past 11pm or so! :o

[pris993]

Leaving on the Ruby Princess in April. Plan on checking out the buffet for dinner a few times - plus the new santuary area on board. Going to visit Seville,Spain and Gilbralter. Plan on taking a nap so we can stay up later to enjoy some of the late evening activities.

[itzmered]

I plan on trying snorkeling and can't wait! DH is always in bed early so for him it will be snorkeling and staying up past 9pm :)

[paulred]

i have always wanted to this too. it would be awesome :D

 

Actually, its not all that awesome. I did it in Grenada. The watercraft had a deck at the back, and the parachute was already in the air. they just hooked me up and unwound the tether. It was much like going up an elevator. Interesting, yes, awesome, not so much.
