    Will the Cruise Ship stop and let us out at some pristine white beaches with palm trees?  Oh wait, I can drive an hour or two from my home in Tallahassee and get to lots of those beaches.

     No, thanks.

No, I would not.  Not a big fan of cruises in general, especially with the group of health issues that have come to light over the last few years.  If I was on a cruise, I would want it to be a fun-filled, relaxing vacation, and not a working vacation (just me!) Kevin J. May.

I would love to go on a cruise on a small vessell (300-400 people maximum) that goes into all sorts of small inlets and rivers so the people on board can see wildlife and go kayaking and get to know each other. However, if I am actually taking a vacation, no real estate allowed.

Depends on the destination.  If it was something like Alaska or the Mediterranean, I'd book it and then enjoy the vacation never setting foot in a seminar if we were in port.
