What's Your Caribbean Cruise Story?

My Family On Formal Night On Carnival Glory 2007 - 2nd Cruise!           

My Caribbean cruise story is one of sheer fun and delight.

If you have read some of the pages of this website, you would have heard tid-bits about my family's Caribbean cruise experiences.

Taste Of Our
Cruise Vacation Stories

I have shared that on our first cruise vacation - a Western Caribbean itinerary aboard Carnival Sensation - we were surprised by the mandatory cruise gratuity at the end.

Yet, we enjoyed every bit of it and did not want to leave the ship upon its return to the Tampa Port.

We vowed that from then on that we would only take 7-night Caribbean cruises.

While the next two cruises were seven (7) days long - one an Eastern Caribbean cruise, and the other a Western Caribbean cruise, we have not really kept our vow.

To date, we have taken two 4 day Caribbean cruise, and several 5-night Western Caribbean cruises.

We have quite a few cruise stories to share and I have done so over some of these webpages.

Fortunately for my family, each Caribbean cruise sailing was free from unpleasant events.

Except for losing our digital camera in St. Thomas, USVI, and being disappointed with the dilapidated condition of the roads in Belize City, Belize and Samana, Dominican Republic, we have enjoyed every bit our cruise experiences with six separate Caribbean cruise lines, aboard many different cruise liners.

Unfortunately for some people, their cruise experiences have not been pleasant.

We have a friend who was aboard a Western Caribbean cruise during Hurricane Katrina. There is another friend who took her first inclusive Caribbean cruise two years ago, but not really excited about the experience.
