Cruise experience

Super boring, i tell you.. I don't think I'll ever pay good monies to go on a cruise anymore.

Let me count what are the good memories i brought back:

- Beautiful view from the balcony of our cabin
- Lounging and lazy walks along the deck
.

tt's it...



Here comes the lousy stuff:

- This tops the list : strangers who walk up and without asking for permission, start touching my Ashley's face and holding her hand, and telling us what a pretty girl Ashley is. There was 1 particular lady (no guessing who's my No. 1 hatelist now) who kept touching and caressing Ashley's face, even though I had literally used my whole hand to cover Ashley's face, such that she was only touching my hand. Stupid woman didn't get the obvious hint that I don't want her touching my Ashley. I had to go to the toilet to wash my hands after that! It got so bad that Alan told Ashley to beat the next person's hand if they want to touch her! kekeke...

- Mediocre mass-produced buffet breakfast/lunch/dinner (lucky i had dining credits, which allowed us to enjoy a sumptuous jap lunch and chinese dinner).

- Too many XXXIXXs (made me wanna puke)

- Boring activities (the most happening place for us was the video arcade. imagine tt, when we wouldn't normally waste time in arcades... huh huh)

- Lumpy bed, flat pillows (yeah yeah, we r too pampered at home sleeping on Sealy mattress and Akemi pillows)

Afterthoughts : I guess it would be great for people looking to "doing nothing" and just lazing around. But for us, wif an active toddler, we need much more interesting activities to spend the time.

Pics will come later... when i have time to upload.

Thanks for sharing your experience. Patrick and I have thought of going for a cruise previously because he has never been on one before. We will re-consider our options when we think of signing up for one next time.

Ya, maybe just go Bottle Tree @ Yishun and take a ride on a boat in the lake will get the same experience. Cheaper some more.
