Lisa63 Posted December 2, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2003 Suppose that money and vacation time were not issues -- If you had a month to cruise anywhere you want (on one or more ships), where would you go? I'd start off with a non-stop transatlantic on QE2 or QM2 from New York to Southampton, then board ANY mainstream cruise ship for a 10- to 14-night Norwegian Fjords/North Cape cruise, and return to the US via another ship that stopped in Greenland, Iceland, and Eastern Canada. How about you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Posted December 2, 2003 Report Share Posted December 2, 2003 I'd still like to do a summertime Great Lakes cruise. Start out in Chicago, and end in Montreal. I've said it before. The Welland Canal connecting Lakes Erie and Ontario is much more impressive than the Panama Canal, just not in the exotic location. It can't handle the same size ships though, so something along the lines of the Tahitian Princess would suffice. Get off in Montreal, and board something along the lines of the Grand Princess, for a repositioning cruise to Galveston Texas. Required stops along the way would be Quebec City, Halifax, Boston, New York, Baltimore, Norfolk, Key West, and Aruba, just to mix it up a little LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mebert Posted December 2, 2003 Report Share Posted December 2, 2003 Since you've only given us 30 days, I think I'd take the Dawn Princess from Los Angeles, sail to Cabo San Lucas and Acapulco, Mexico; Puntarenas, Costa Rica; cross the Panama Canal; Cartagena, Columbia; Oranjestad, Aruba; Ocho Rios, Jamaica; and end up in Fort Everglades. Then I'd wait for anything going one way to New York. Maybe there would be a ship repositioning from Fort Everglades to the Bahamas or Bermuda to New York. I'd like to avoid flying again. Actually, my dream cruise would take many more days, to get me around the world. B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeithnRita Posted December 3, 2003 Report Share Posted December 3, 2003 A repositioning cruise from Vancouver to Hawaii to the Mexican Riviera thru the canal to Aruba and a few other eastern Caribbean Islands we haven't been to. It might be more than 30 days--but who's counting! :D :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbond Posted December 3, 2003 Report Share Posted December 3, 2003 My dream cruise would be down the Nile, spending a couple of weeks seeing all the sights. It would also be on a fancy ship, where everyone dressed formal for dinner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
