Disney Magic Back in LA 2008 - Page 9

I would add that I'm hesitant about Disney cruises...blackjack is an important factor in my cruising equation.

Yes, I almost didn't go on the Disney when I learned they didn't have a casino.

But if you liked your cruise(s) on other carriers I think it is safe to say you'll like Disney (assuming the good company requirement, of course) even without it. And as tacky as "a Disney-owned private island" sounded to me, it actually made for a very nice day (though I wouldn't want to stay there any longer than that).

Eh, gambling in Vegas is depressing. Not that it stops me when I'm there, but there's something wholly different about wandering bleary-eyed out of a casino in the middle of the night to miles of neon and heat vs. getting up from the table to go stare at the moon reflecting off the ocean for a while.

I can understand that.

When I travel, I don't plan heavy itineray's. I like to wander, explore, see what the location reveals to me. I always have a general idea of what I WANT to see before hand I just don't plan out my days. If I feel like lounging, I lounge. One of my best memories in Paris involved lounging in our room with a view of the Eifel tower listening to the buskers play their accordian in the square below. That is something I couldn't have planned, but it is a treasured memory. I also never seem to have a problem tuning out the world when I'm on vacation.

The only cruises I've always been interested in involve destinations - Alaska, the Mediterranean or Agean. The big draw for me with this cruise is crossing and Panama Canal, but, without a port, it's sort of like driving through New York City. What fun is that?

Yeah, I don't like Vegas either.

I know. I'm a freak.

CoasterMatt · 01-23-2007, 05:40 PM

I love Vegas, because I'm a freak (It's the greatest town for peoplewatching)

My husband is obsessed with that damn quarter machine where you plunk in $100 to win a $5 wrapped around 3 $1s. And then he gets seriously cranky. I'd be thrilled to be on a cruise with no opportunity for quarter machine obsession.

I'd like to do one of those cruises to Antarctica one of these days. But I doubt I'll get there this decade.
