After discussing the poker-themed cruise in yesterday's blog posting, I decided to look a little more closely at themed cruises for today's post. I talked to Bryndi about this, as she went on a Looney-Tunes themed cruise with her family when she was younger, and I also talked to a co-worker who took a Disney cruise with her family a few years ago. Here's what they had to say.
Though Bryndi said she doesn't remember too much about her cruise since she was pretty young when she went, she said that it was a lot of fun and that it was great for families with young children. She also mentioned that there was a lot to do and that there were characters roaming about the ship the whole time, which was great for entertainment and photo opportunities. Their ship was called the Big Red Boat, which I find enjoyable. :)
My co-worker who went on a Disney cruise a few years ago with her husband and young son said that they really enjoyed their experience, and that it was exactly what they wanted at the time. She said that they were on land at the Disney World theme parks for half of the time, and then on the boat which made a voyage to the Bahamas and back for the rest of the trip. This sounds like the best of both worlds to me, since I'm such a huge Disney buff, but I know that it wouldn't be much of a relaxing vacation as I'd be trying to do and see as much at the parks and on the ship as possible. It sounds like a really great vacation though to go on at some point in life, and has just been added to my bucket list.
Moral of the story: if you want a high energy, action-packed vacation, or if you have little kids and want plenty of activities available for them, go for the themed cruise. If you're looking to relax and get away from it all, however, a themed cruise most likely isn't for you. Avoid the themed cruise and treat yourself to the calm, island getaway that you deserve!
