It was certainly worth the $10 a head for the boat ride. ==== In my (limited) experience with cruise ships it is important to take advantage of the excursions even if they seem a little pricey. If not, you'll end up seeing the same row of tourist trap junk shops that you saw in the last port. Just about the worst way of seeing the Caribbean is on a cruise ship but that's all that a lot of people ever experience. We have neighbors that couldn't believe we enjoyed Grenada three years ago because all they saw was the area right around the dock, which leaves a lot to be desired. It's for sure the excursions add immensely to the trip. The problem is figuring out which to take! Salmonbait -- Hope you're having a spectacular day! |

Our favorite local restaurants are family owned and operated and are not fancy...and don't serve cruise ship fare. |

I could see a smaller boat up in Alaska or maybe one of those bigger sailboats that take 50 people down in the Carib. I heard the food is great though, but there are lots of obese people. The smaller ships in the Caribbean have disappeared. Company went belly up. There is the Mystic Whaler out of New London. We did that more than 30 years ago. Find a book entitled "Cruises and Cruse Ships." On our Christmas cruise the food was great. We had a table for two. There were 1,000 children aboard. Lots of fat people. Not in general a classy lot. But so what? Pay mre, get more class. We are now looking at a July 4 cruise on the Queen Mary 2 to Halifax and back. Of course we would rather still have our own boat in which we ranged the coast from Annapolis to Plymouth. That July 4 cruise sounds like fun. We almost did that trip last fall, from New York to Halifax with stops in between to 'see the leaves'. It would have been on one of the Disney ships. Great food! Salmonbait -- Hope you're having a spectacular day! Are you required to go ashore in Halifax, or is it permissible to stay aboard ship and enjoy the amenities while admiring the waterfront? No requirement to go ashore. The food would be much better on board anyway! Salmonbait -- Hope you're having a spectacular day! As would the smell and the company... |

Salmonbait -- Hope you're having a spectacular day! You should try: Jerry's for seafood, just south of P.F. on the right hand side, next to, of all places, a tire store. Mexico, just north of P.F., also on the right hand side, very good Mexican food, and where I usually have my oversized once a year margarita. Mama Lucia, in Dunkirk and in P.F., has great pizza and many other very good homemade Italian dishes. Most of the waitresses in the P.F. restaurant are astonishingly beautiful. If were a young man, I hang out there and try to date them all. |
