Worst cruise experience

[DebbieandJerry]

We all like to accentuate the positive when we are cruising. However, I am sure that there are some horror stories out there. Any one care to share?

Our dislike of Ochos Rios, Jamaica was validated the 2nd time we did Western Carribbean when Jerry was constantly harrassed to buy "cigarettes" on every street corner. At first Jerry was not listening and kept saying, yeah, yeah just to get the men/boys to leave him alone. It wasn't until I started listening that I said to both him and James "get away from there, they are trying to set you up to buy pot".

The only bad experience we have had we seem to have on every trip. After several days of being pampered and waited on they make us pack up and get off the ship. lol

Never thought of that one. Very clever!

Debbie - I know a lot of people like Ocho Rios but I share your feelings on this port. On our last visit there I saw it from my balcony while reading my book. Never set a step off the ship.

Here's the sad thing: this is a port that really needs tourism. Jerry and I are not at all adverse to buying stuff. We just don't like being set up or hounded.

I like your attitude of watching it from the balcony.
