    <description>&lt;P&gt;We're cruisers who don't like repeating cruise destinations so we've been to several different locations.&amp;nbsp; We've only been to the Caribbean on two cruises because my wife's chorus was doing a show on one of the ships.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;My favorite cruise by far was the Antarctica cruise on Celebrity.&amp;nbsp; It was a 14 night cruise which started and finished in Buenos Aires.&amp;nbsp; We cruised along the Antarctic peninsula during the cruise but were never able to step on the actual continent but that was fine.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Other great cruises have been ones around the British Isles, one along Malaysia, one to the Canary Islands and of course Alaska.&amp;nbsp; We also did a great cruise from Boston to Montreal in early October and the fall colors were amazing.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;What we usually look for are cruises with the highest percentage of port days and the most hours in each port.&amp;nbsp; We aren't tied to any one cruise line but have cruised on Holland America most often.&amp;nbsp; My favorite cruise line was Celebrity.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;In October, &amp;nbsp;I took a cruise to Alaska. &amp;nbsp;The scenery was very beautiful. &amp;nbsp;I especially enjoyed going through the Glacier Bay. &amp;nbsp;I was able to see something so great,&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I did&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;the southern Caribbean cruise&amp;nbsp; last march and going back in Oct with family and friends. my cousin and i fly into San Juan and explored&amp;nbsp; the neighborhood sampling foods. then left Sunday visiting St Thomas,St Kitts,, St Lucia, St Maarten and Barbados. We did local tours,sample the food, and the rums. took the mud baths, ate at road side stands, did some local rum tours. I did&amp;nbsp; some research and so i could tell the the drivers what we wanted to see. and they were accommodating as well as showing us local tourist places.did i mention the rum tasting.?my cousin is more out going so she can talk to a rock and it would speak back as i am quieter. the scenery was awesome,the ocean, the music, the food was great (she has sensitive stomach but had no problems).&amp;nbsp; the rum sampling, at every port? it was great and the people were so warm and inviting everywhere and because we were open to learning and responding back .I like this iternary cause i really like being in a different locale every day.don't like being at sea 2 or 3 days.In october we looking forward to having a halloween party on board.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I enjoyed a Princess transatlantic cruise the most. Spain and Portugal were lovely and historic. The entertainment was mostly from London's West End and just a cut above what I had experienced before. I can't wait until my next transatlantic.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color="#000000" face="georgia,palatino" size="4"&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Well, I've never been on a cruise of any kind.&amp;nbsp; And of a truth, I have absolutely no desire to go on one of those tropical/Caribbean cruises.&amp;nbsp; But if I could take a cruise, I would love to go to Alaska.&amp;nbsp; I would prefer to go during the late Spring or early Summer.&amp;nbsp; But I would go any time of the year if the opportunity presented itself.&amp;nbsp; I think Alaska, despite the cold and its six months of darkness, is beautiful and would be fascinating to actually &lt;EM&gt;be there&lt;/EM&gt; to see it.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;We have done cruises by Disney, Princess, Royal Carribbean and Viking.&amp;nbsp; Viking is by far our favorite.&amp;nbsp; we did Viking's Mediterranean Odyssey from Barcelona to Venice.&amp;nbsp; Amazing.&amp;nbsp; I think the Mediterranean is the best place to cruise.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;If you really want to enjoy a cruise AND see Alaska, consider doing a Cruise Tour. It combines a few days of cruising with a multiple day land tour into Alaska. Depending on the length of your trip, you can visit the Yukon and Denali and ride the White Pass railroad. It was our first and only trip to Alaska and remains at the top of our favorites even after 16 cruises.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I am curious why you would consider a cruise to Alaska but not to the Caribbean. We have done 8 Caribbean cruises and find them so enjoyable even if only for the sunshine, blue water, fresh air, wonderful food and personal service. Well worth the $500 or so dollars it costs for the cruise when they have a sale. You cannot get a better vacation value!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;IF -- big IF -- I were to consent to inescapable confinement, I'd choose a fjord cruise. Best I can claim is a rough ferry across the English channel from Ostend Belgium to Ramsgate, Kent, England back in the dark ages (1970s).&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Bucket list trip for sure...and I'd have to pass on a cruise as well. Maybe a brief boat excursion&lt;/P&gt;</description>
