My dad’s whole side of the family are the ‘cruise’ side of the family except for my dad. It’s kind of sad. They are all bonding on these cruises and we aren’t there but my dad is vehemently anti-cruise (I’m kinda glad about that as I really don’t want to go on a cruise.)

I’m a bit of a germaphobe but ironically like cruises LOL I like it because when I was on call for work all the time, no one could reach me in the middle of the sea.

I love the sea…I would probably love it in some way…I imagine a floating mall. I love HOTELS a lot. I could live happily going from hotel to hotel, even mostly Holiday Inn. But I just know I would be having constant apocalyptic thoughts about the decadence. Like I do when I go to Vegas.

As long as it's not Carnival or Disney it's usually not too bad on the ick side

True. Though Carnival is the only line I’ve been on that has single deck blackjack.

Can you count cards?

Not really. Most use an auto shuffling shoe so it makes it difficult to keep track. I just manage my chips well and memorized the basic strategy chart.
