Like I said...some people love it.

If you have the money it is a genuine retirement option. You can stay on one ship, you can hop ship to ship, the cruise lines are actually apparently quite accommodating, a huge departure from air travel these days.

Its an option.

From what they tell me though...I find it really interesting because apparently the level of care and professionalism from Cruise Line staff is on a whole different level that almost anywhere else.

I havent been on a cruise in years, so I really cant say.
