First time cruising! Me n my son both ( yes I always put me first ). Son complained I should have taken him earlier. But hey be fair, both first-timers you are 10 I'm 33 how about a swap?
5 Good things about cruise holidays.
1. It mostly takes you to destinations like tropical islands where good fun is guaranteed with minimal homework. Hit the ports of call, find nice waters n drop your kids in, done! You are a good mum, for the time being.
2. Good mums can have a nice break, from juggling myriads of tasks between disciplining your kids, cooking, working n tidying up all the mess your kids never fail to be creative at making. Here onboard, everything is beautifully taken care of, that alone worths more than the cruise money yeah? N hands down to the Philippino cabin stewards they are amazing aren't they, plain honesty they would be the most-desired souvenir from the ship to take home! Oh woman who needs husbands, especially when they are no longer eye candies n don't pay your holidays either, all mums agree aye?
3. Now the food. The 24/7 buffets ( plural yes) are absolutely marvellous! You basically don't have time or stomach for the 4 course formals which are also included in the package. Eat responsibly! Unlimited icecream n freshly made to order pizzas, pretty sure that're all kids all time favourites.
4. After binge eating for weeks, people watching on the deck couldn't be more fun, it's basically watching how fatties getting fatter n having to wiggle through crowds for more eataries, fat adults fat children the ship is actually the best place to run The Biggest Loser show lol never in shortage of candidates of all ages, n gosh there's no one using the gym. Yep you are right, when you are too fat gym is too much for ya.
5. N the shows! Absolute hats off to the actors n artists. They are so pro that seasickness doesn't seem to affect them a bit. N the varieties are a great mix even the comedians stopped cursing n put on PG programmes nicely to have kids sit and entertained. I used to believe cruises are boring shit for the oldies with mobility issues, but the shows completely changed that opinion (or bias). The oldies can't handle such full schedule on daily basis they gotta sleep early to keep sanity intact hahaha.
5 bad things about cruise holidays
1. Your kg/ ibs goes up which goes without saying n looks like being no one's worry for now.
2. Your motion sickness is getting well tested. One thing I've noticed is the sea gets calmer towards the equator n rougher further down south. We are lucky though sailing off in between cyclones, one struck port Vila off our ports of call list, another hit Noumea the day after we left for Isle of Pines. Prayers n hearts going to the locals who suffered miserably.
3. Too little time on land. New Caledonia n Vanuatu are great places to explore for weeks I've seen plenty docos. But land hours are all too short you basically get a entree taster for future revisit.
4. Kids getting spoilt. 2 weeks no homework, whenever asked to read answer being feeling a little sick. but had completely no problem at all in the pools or water-slides. Juniors club, jacuzzi, mini-golf, basketball, ping pong, 247 *** parents only get to see kids back at night, lucky them!
5. Can't think of yet. Ohh perhaps the satellite wifi. It's too slow n sometimes doesn't work, big ripoff at nearly 1 dollar per minute! Yes per minute, 60 seconds.
A few extra thoughts after spotting the flying fish. The seagulls are incredible. Some fly with the ship from day1. Well could be mistakes coz they all look the same to me. But do ponder on it for a moment, whales are cruising the whole ocean every year, there are birds that fly nonstop across continents too. There are insects living in stratosphere! Monarch butterflies literally fly half the planet down to Mexico from far north, think about the fragile wings, the average speed, rain n hail, n the astonishing navigating capabilities within a brain that teeny size, things n facts like these blow my mind off n made me totally don't want to be human again next life, be a ferocious bird or fish instead, you are free! N free from visas! Watch out for humans is all you need to do!
