    Cruises (the boat trips)

    I have to say I've been thinking about a cruise for the first time ever...I have made as much fun of them as anyone, but I mean, if they are cheaper than a hotel, what can I say?

    OMG!

    Jaunted going on a cruise? That I would like to see! Of course, you'll have a great time and then you will have something else to make fun of.

    I've never been on one either

    But honestly, anything that took me into warm weather would be okay right now. Just toss me into a dinghy with a life jacket and some peanuts.
