Default Themed cruises - small ship cruises

I regard cruises as uninteresting and certainly don't consider them to
be "travel".

But I do go on dance cruises in the company of from 60 to 300 fellow
dancers and we have an enviably good time. I wouldn't consider a non-
dance cruise, Next one's in about two weeks.

The longest time in any port is eleven hours. That's hardly enough
time to smell the air.

I don't care where the ship goes. With so little time in any port, it
hardly matters. The ship is the destination, just as a hotel is for a
muli-day dance convention.

When you retire you can do it free, if you sign on as a member of the
entertainment staff, a friend danced all the way from UK to Alaska.
