| | Guest | Quality vs Quantity (kinda fun) So if given the chance which would you choose?
If you had $20k to travel on for say 2 years, would you choose 2 or 3 higher
end cruises or would you choose several mainstream cruises?
I think I'd probably book an Australian cruise (or land vacation) then fly
to the Med and do a cruise that hits Egypt, Turkey and Greece (or 2 cruises
if needed) Then with whatever I had left over (if anything) I'd book as many
Carnival cruises as I could.
Of course it being me, I may very well just book as many Carnival cruises as
possible and forget the Med and Australia. I suppose I'm quantity over
quality.
What would you do?

cruises a year anyway so "found" money would go towards something
extraordinary.

| | Guest | Quality vs Quantity (kinda fun) We generally book 1 big cruise every year. Then we go for several
shorter cruises out of Florida where we have lived for the past 23
years. Looking to do a North Atlantic cruise next year to ports not
previously available to cruisers.
Caribbean is old hat but we try to find an island we haven't been to.
I would like to try one of the luxury liners, but every time I see the
prices, I go back to the main lines.

in Le Mans and the 1000KM at Spa. | |

| | Guest | Quality vs Quantity (kinda fun) If I got $20k, I'd invest the principal and use the dividends to buy a
really decent car, and go on some cruises and some land vacations.
Maybe, I'd bring some friends along for the ride. Last, but not least,
I'd use some money as seed money to start fund raising to create
satellite pet emergency centers open 24/7. Emergency veterinary care in
NJ is provided by the private sector. Not all facilities are open 24/7,
nor are they centrally located in each of NJ's counties. That was 20 THOUSAND not 20 million. | |

But if you live in, for instance, Johnson City, you either call your
friendly vet or drive the 45 minutes into Austin.
I was talking with our current vet and realized that we had first met
when she was working at the e-vet. Sadly, she was the one who put
Bonnie to sleep. But that's the past and we love her already. | |
